CentOS 5 Hardware :: USB Sound Tests OK But Not Used By Apps
Sep 22, 2009
I have a USB sound card that works sometimes with Firefox and with the VLC media player, but in the middle of a Gnome session it drops out and the sound starts coming from the internal card. In the Gnome Sound Preferences USB Audio is still selected and the test sounds still come loud and clear from the USB card, but the applications are ignoring this and have switched to the internal card.
Some system components are:
Centos 5.3 x86_64
Toshiba laptop AMD Turion
Roland UA4-fx audio interface sound card
Gnome 2.16.0
The Gnome Device Manager shows the UA-4fx card and under it "USB Audio ALSA playback" and "USB UA4FX ALSA Control Device" devices are listed. I want to make the USB card the default for all applications and have internal card take over only when the USB card is unplugged.

A friend has intalled Linux after a load of problems with windows. He very kindly installed my Edirol UA25 soundcard, and when i click 'test' on System-preferences-sound, it indeed plays a sound. The problem is that when I try to play anything from the internet on firefox, or any sounds in VLC, or any other application, it doesn't work. I believe I'm running Ubuntu Studio, version 8.04, but I am not sure. I have an Athlon 64 bit processor if that's relevant.

firefox plays sound in videos, system bell works at startup and shutdown, and i can play a test sound in "system settings --> multimedia --> phonon". but in several other apps, sound doesn't work, e.g. thunderbirds makes no sound when new mail arrives, although beeping is enabled, it only shows an alert; the same in my chess program. it all worked fine in kubuntu 10.04, now i have kubuntu 10.

I installed Debian lenny amd64 a couple days ago and I have only got a few things figured out thus far. I got libdvdcss, and adobe flash along with some neat little games and apps. Well I had no sound at all because I couldn't get my audigy ls working with lenny so I'm useing my onboard sound (a realtek). I changed all my sound options to ALC 880 Analog now I have sound for movies and mp3's but not in games or on the web (ie ....., farmville).

So I've got a new system on which I had to re-install Debian, and I've been trying to fix the sound today, but it doesn't seem to work... I've kept the same ALSA configuration (except a minor adjustment to the card number as this system appears to have two cards instead of one), but it doesn't seem to work as expected. I got this weird error while running an app that uses ALSA:
Code: Select allALSA sound driver initializing...
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1024:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
--> (Device: default)...Failed: Operation not permitted
In VLC it works fine, provided that I manually choose the right device under Audio -> Audio Device.here's my /etc/asound.conf:
Code: Select alldefaults.ctl.card 1
pcm.dsp {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
[code]....

i am having a sound issue in fedora 14 64 bit. it is interesting because i have no sound when i use desktop applications such as vlc. however when i use videos or other flash sites the sounds works. although for some reason when i listen to music on grooveshark there is an annoying background noise. i wonder if the extra noise is a flash issue. but as far as the desktop application sound not working i am baffled. also kde noises work fine. when i go in to the speaker configuration and to the test it works perfectly.

When I go to Computer, Control Panel, Sound and look at the Hardware tab, nothing is there. In the Output tab, 'Dummy Output' is the only item listed. In Sound in Yast2, the device shows correctly as Card Model - Thinkpad X61, driver snd-hda-intel.I click on "Play Test Sound" through there, it works fine. Mplayer (from a terminal session), Gnome Mplayer, Banshee, and Totem all don't play sound

I have stated that I use Pulse because ALSA fails to utilize more then one sound app. With ALSA if I watch a ..... vid in firerfox and soon open my music player the music player wont work unless I close off firefox. so I close off firefox but sometimes flash hangs the sound device hostage and I have to log out or kill something to make sure ALSA is freed up. So this is why I use pulse, it makes using more then one sound app at a time much easier, no hang ups at all. But there are a few apps that dont get along with pulse so there must be a way to configure alsa to use more then one sound app at a time. Do I have some compiling to do? Is it commandline? I am just curious what you anti pulse folks do to use more then one sound app at a time without the aid of pulse. it only mumbles about the differences between the multiple sound servers.

just installed ubuntu 10.04.1 after using ultimate for abit but having sound issues which i thought could have been os based.Sound works fine from boot and continues fine until i open options and try to configure my mic settings, i get like maybe 5 secs to make adjustments then all my sound dies totally. The icon then shows as speaker with 3 lines next to it and within the configuration for sound my mic hardware vanashes. I cannot get any sound until i restart my computer and so cannot use apps like skype which i do tend too use alot.

i have a problem with sound. Previously my on-board sound controller was identified automatically and worked flawlessly. But now I don't have any sound in the system with the only exception of Xine-based applications (Xine itself, Kaffeine-xine and Amarok still play fine but all other software is silent)Have anyone had this problem before.I'm using Debian Lenny stable with KDE 3.5.

Fifteen years ago buying a new computer was easy, magazines provided comparative tests of PCs for one's budget. Now typical magazine specs are not high enough for my needs:
I need a PC that can duplicate a 5 gb file in less than 10 seconds.
Where do I find comparative tests for PCs at this very high end?

After many modifications, I managed to install ns2.28 , but some validation tests failed. I got the following message at the end of validation test:
validate overall report: some tests failed:

to re-run a specific test, cd tcl/test; ./test-all-TEST-NAME
Notice that some tests in webcache will fail on freebsd when -O is turned on. This is due to some event reordering, which will disappear when -g is turned on. I tried to run the test individually one after another, but that is too time consuming, it prompts for permission after every test and thus runs many test & opens a lot of xgraph window. The tests I run so far individually, agreed with the reference output. Now I am wondering, should I report a bug about it, or should I hire a kid to run those failed 40 tests( which require hitting the ENTER key 1200 times,maybe ), or what else should I do.

In C++ language, we can do the following compound tests,
Code:
std::string a, b, c, d;
if ((a == "Yes" && b == "Yes" ) || (c == "Yes" && d == "Yes")) { ... }
In bash scripts, how can we do the parenthesis around compound tests?
Code:
if [ "$a" = "Yes" ] && [ "$b = "Yes" ] [ "$c" = "Yes" ] && [ "$d" = "Yes" ]; then
...

Ultimately my DB will run in VM2 and any DB requests coming in at 2055 of VM1 should be forwarded to port 2055 of VM2. Since I do not yet have a DB running I am trying to test with netcat.

I'm doing some tests and playing around with postfix in a test squeeze server. What I want to achieve is a postfix mail server using ports 465 and 587 with smtp authentication to send mails. I followed this howto: [URL].. and I'm using a php script with pear functions to test sending emails to a gmail test account of mine. This is the script:
<?php
require_once "Mail.php";
$from = "Webmaster <webmaster@server>";
$to = "My Name <myaccount@gmail.com>";
$subject = "This is sent with pear as a test";
$body = "This is the body of the message";

I'm running CentOS 5.4 on an Atom-based motherboard with a quiet, low-power PSU. As the only fan left is a 40mm fan to cool the Intel 945GC chip, I'd like to run a utility to monitor the 945GC and HD temperatures. Ideally, it should be able to run the 945GC fan faster when it's needed.

I seem to be having sound issues on CentOS 5. When I run the sound card configuration, my sound card is recognized and the test sound plays fine but there is no sound coming out of any applications. This just started today and I have made no changes to my computer or installed any new software.

I can not get the node or cloud controllers to startup using the init.d scripts. I have a fresh install of CentOS 5.4 with Eucalyptus 1.6.2 I have compiled Eucalyptus and all packages using the RPM supplied from Eucalyptus and utilizing yum installer. I do not currently have any processes or applications listening currently on the ports on the boxes as well. I think it may be a permissions issue or something because I get a "permission denied error", but I am not sure if it is Eucalyptus or CentOS. It looks as if it is not binding to the address on the interface of the NIC. It may be something else however. I have the Node controller, Cloud controller, and Cluster controller on seperate physical boxes. When I try to run either the cloud controller or the node controller I get this message:
Cloud Controller:
[root@cluster-cont ~]# /etc/init.d/eucalyptus-cc start
Starting Eucalyptus cluster controller: (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:8774
(13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:8774

I'm running CentOS 5.4 with kvm and 1 Ubuntu 9.10 guest. I haven't gotten any sound from the start. I've done quite a bit of research and troubleshooting but have taken this as far as I can at this point. To start there was no virtual sound card, but after enough digging I found the option in virt-manager that creates that, created a new guest with sound and copied the line from the xml config file to my existing guest. The line I added in virsh was <sound model='ac97'/> And the virtual sound card now shows up properly in the guest, but still no sound in the guest. Sound works fine in the host so no hardware issues.
Next I followed the instructions here: [URL].. making sure to check the volume controls and user permissions, still no sound. I read somewhere on the net that SElinux messes up the sound, so I disabled SElinux on the host for testing purposes, but no joy. I also tried using modprobe snd-pcm-oss on my host but that didn't return any output so I'm not sure if that did anything. In short I've been shooting the dark trying different things and if anyone has an idea I haven't tried yet, I'd like to hear it.
I also found this on the net: [URL]... But this seems to refer to slackware and I have no idea which config file they are even talking about. I don't think it applies to me but who knows?

It is all good and running except for the sound.
I run: Centos 5.5 Final, kernel 2.6.18-194.32.1.e15
The sound card is an onboard one for Gigabyte X58A series. the driver is recognised as "Intel corporation-82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD audio controller" and the module "snd-hda-intel".
When I put the PCM device on "ALC889 analog" I can hear the test sound in the "audio configuration module" from the system/administrative menu.
However, when I run a movie or an mp3 file, I can see the picture, but no sound. I also can't hear the test sound under "Systems/Prefernces/ Sound " Menu.
This runs fine under windows though I have to configure numerous output plugs through a gigabyte-realtek software.
