Ubuntu :: No Sound In KDE When Started By Startx While Working Fine When Started By Kdm/gdm
Dec 14, 2010I recently installed KDE in my ubuntu 10.10. To access KDE, I want to use
startx /usr/bin/startkdeBut using it disables sound in KDE (Sound is working fine in GNOME). It doesn't sound for anything like login sound, totem, mplayer or any other playerBut when I press Alt+Ctrl+F1 to change to virtual console, the playback resumes from where it was in time and when coming back Alt+Ctrl+F7 and the time in totem (or any other player) doesn't move. While log out also it doesn't play logout sound and doesn't logout, so I have to press Ctrl+Alt+F1 so that logout sound play then it exits.When starting KDE by kdm or gdm, the sound works normally. But I don't want to login again using kdm or gdm and not to use root user to start kdm or gdm.I don't know what is the difference between when KDE is started by startx or by kdm/gdm where the same user login in kdm/gdm as that for startx

View 9 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Everytime Reboot The Sound Is Muted
Nov 27, 2010I've been having some issues with my sound for a few weeks. Every time I reboot, my sound is muted. I have to open up alsamixer every time and unmute it manually. It is not the "master volume" that is muted but instead the "speaker" volume is the one that is muted. This started when i started up my computer and the ubuntu log-in sound started playing extremely loud. I quickly tried to turn down the volume while it was still booting and ever since then, i have been having this issue. Also, the volume control on my laptop no longer works, even after i adjust the volume with alsamixer. It still shows on the screen that the volume is being adjusted, but it does nothing. I hoped i explained this well enough for someone to be able to help me with this issue. Also, sorry if this issue has been posted before.

May 24, 2011I've seen loads of threads about this sound issue, and I've experienced/fixed it before (after HOURS of searching), but this time it's worse. I'm running Maverick.

Sound also has been disabled on my LIVE DISC OF 11.04These sound problems are the absolute worst part of Ubuntu. I'm almost ready to jump ship back to...vista *shudder*

Ubuntu :: Getting No Sound From Audio Card (Muted Icon)
Feb 3, 2011I've got no sounds from my audio card. I have established this knowledge by confirming it by using two separate sets of speakers. In addition, there is a weird muted icon in the top left corner. I've looked through the sound settings, including alsamixer, and I cannot find whats muted. Please see attached screenshot. As you can see, my output it muted, but the speaker is back (see a) in screenshot), not white like it normally is (see b) in screenshot). How to restore sound from my audio ports?

Dec 12, 2009Right now I either can have wireless or sound. When I get sound I lose my wireless which may be due to some kernel issue. I use the madwifi, madwifi-kmp-default, madwifi-kmp-pae, & compat-wireless-kmp-pae for my athero ar 9285. This gets my wireless going.
I followed

and couldn't get sound
Then I followed

I get sound but lose my wireless. I reinstall madwifi-kmp-pae, & compat-wireless-kmp-pae. I have to downgrade some kernel conflicts and I have wireless, but no sound. My sound information is here [URL].
Slackware :: Current - Phonon Applications Silent - Muted ?
Jan 2, 2010I have a very strange problem with Phonon. I am running slackware-current with KDE-4.3.4 on an old PC with CS46xx sound chip. The Phonon backend is Xine. The system is newly installed.
Applications which use the Phonon layer are silent or muted. I am not able to hear anything. Affected is for example Amarok, Dragon Player, Minitube or the Kde Notification system (when playing sounds). What makes the situation strange is the fact, that everything looks pretty fine:
Alsa works excellent and is configured correctly.
KMixer affects the alsa system settings as expected.
Mplayer works, Xine works, mpg321 works.
Inside Kde's system settings -> Multimedia, the Test button works and i can hear the Kde start up melody.
Inside Kde's system settings -> Notifications, the play button for sound events works and plays the given sounds.
The problem appears with a newly created user account, too.
What i also tried was to compile [url]. The output looks ok to me, too. No errors and ogg and mp3 support is available.
Last but not least i tried the Python coding tutorial at [url]. The fact, that this works, unsettles me totally.
Slackware :: Enable Windows Wireless Drivers In Slackware 13.1 And How To Install XFCE
Aug 22, 2010I recently installed Slackware Linux 13.1 , and my Wireless is down. I've only installed 3 Linux disto's on my main laptop (Ubuntu 9.10 , 10.04 , and Crunchbang Linux 9.04 , just had Crunchbang), and they all had the same problem. In all three , I was able to enable Windows Wireless drivers and every thing worked. Now , I'm assuming I have to the same ting in Slackware? Sorry , but I have no idea what my wireless card is. But I know that my laptop is a Dell Insprion E1705. One last thing , I did ifconfig and that wlan0 is my Wi-Fi interface. I typed ifconfig wlan0 up to see if that was the problem. After I did that , I got and error message. Then I typed ifconfig wlan0 down to see if it was down and it made wlan0 down. I tried bringing it up again , but I got an error saying it couldn't find the device specified. Also , how do I install XFCE? I really don't like KDE for some reason and would like to install XFCE. I chose XFCE over GNOME (my favorite) because I want to try something new.

Jan 25, 2011I was over in the Desktop forum yesterday and apparently 'event sounds' are available for Xfce and are part of the original package, but I've never seen them made available, that is, the switch to turn them on isn't where it is suppose to be, in any Slackware specific package of Xfce.I've used 4.61 that came with Slackware64 13.1, 4.61 from the Salix depository, 4.62 from Mr. Workman, 4.62 from 'current' and recently 4.8 from Mr. Workman. None of these make the 'event sounds' available.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Games Started But Getting No Sound At All
Feb 24, 2010I switched to Linux but I was, and still am a gamer, and I have been trying to get some of my favorites to run on Linux as well as find Linux native games. While this hasn't been hard, I have run into a sort of Brick wall. I'll get games to start, but there will be no sound at all. The game runs fine though. When I try to close the game, it crashes/freezes.
This has puzzled me because some games that display this bug now did not previously, and at first this only occurred on one game. Now it occurs on all games. I've checked around, found a few similar bugs, but the closest people seem to get to fixing it is "just uninstall pulseaudio and use something else". It only happens in games, music and other sound works fine.
As for specs, I must say I'm fairly ignorant of some things, but getting better, here is what I do know.

Mar 21, 2011Slackware 13.1 XFCE. I've come across a strange problem which i've never had before on Slackware. I decided to set a desktop up for my sister. Being girls as they are she wanted to change the wallpaper. I showed her how, however when the machine is restarted the wallpaper turns back to default. In all my slack machines around here, i just simply right click on the desktop and change it. That makes it persistent throughout boots. I'm obviously missing something.

Debian :: XFCE Lost All Sound
May 11, 2015I recently freshly installed Debian 8 (stable) XFCE.Everything was working fine. I installed Skype (using the instructions in the Debian wiki) and that worked no problem. I then installed libavcodec56-extra (just to have the extra codecs ready in case needed), and Synaptic also installed the i386 version also.After that, no sound (anywhere at all).I reinstalled libavcodec-56 (and the i386 version) to try to rectify the problem, but the sound has not returned.
As per a google seacrh, i installed pulse audio. This showed me that the the 'levels' were moving in line with the sounds which should have been playing, but no amount of tweaking managed to get the sound to come out. I have Mint installed on the same machine and the sound works fine here so i know for sure it is not a hardware issue.
Debian Multimedia :: No Sound On XFCE
Nov 3, 2015I was having a problem with the sound not going up to a high volume on my machine, so I tried following some online tutorials and ended up destroying the sound system on my machine. Now, instead of just having quite sound, I have no sound. The machine is a Dell Precision server and the attached files show my sound configuration. Ideally, I would like a way to make the sound louder (>100%), but now I will settle for just having sound.

Debian :: Mint XFCE - No Sound After Updates
May 5, 2011I've recently installed Mint XFCE (Debian based). After activating the backport repos, a lot of things were upgraded, one of them being XFCE, which upgraded to 4.8. After that, I can't listen to songs or hear any kind of audio. Prior to the update, everything was OK. Why do I get only the "dummy output" indication? I've been using Linux for more than three years, so I have some knowledge on the sport. Nevertheless, I've never had such an issue.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: No Sound From Rhythmbox With Xfce / Get That?
Jan 18, 2011I'm a fairly new Ununtu user who has just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on my Acer Aspire One D260, to get rid of my virus-ridden Windows and have mostly been happy with the results so far.
After a little experimentation, I decided that I preferred xfce over gnome and KDE as my window manager, but have encountered a little problem (actually it's a medium size problem) I don't get any sound from Rhythmbox It worked before perfectly with gnome but since I installed xfce, big silence when I try to play music.
Other applicatons such as Firefox and VLC produce sound perfectly, but when I try to play music in Rhythmbox, nothing comes out of the speakers. It appears to be playing normally with the progress bar moving normally.
I'm willing to use another music player if necessary but rhythmbox seems to be the most recommended one for linux and I liked it when it worked with gnome.

Mar 18, 2011OS = Slackware 13.1
I'm normally a KDE user but tried xfce4 and found that it works nicely. I wanted to switch to it for a while. I did find one particular problem: When you try and end the session, you can Log Out but can not Restart or Shutdown. If you click on Restart or Shutdown it asks for password Even after entering a valid password, it will not allow the action.
(I tried user and root's passwords.) It says "Please enter your password." After entering the password it says, "Either the password you entered is invalid, or the system administrator disallows shutting down this computer with your user account." (Before you ask; my user is in power group.)
I tinkered with it for a while and decided it must have something to do with KDM and so I switched my default runlevel to 3 and started xfce4 [via startx] and it worked as expected. Next I tried using xdm instead of kdm and YES, it works as expected. I was able to Restart or Shutdown (no asking for password, it just does it.) What is it about KDM that does not allow xfce4 to restart or shutdown?
Slackware :: 13.1 Hangs With Xfce?
Jul 27, 2010Again when I was working under Xfce system hangs up. Earlier I had similar problems but under KDE so I blamed KDE for that. I am sure that there is something wrong with an access to external input devices. Some kind of a broken connection. I am using a USB keyboard but the same happened with PS/2 keyboard. Two flashing leds, I guess, indicate that device is no longer supported by the system. The only hope for an access to the system is via external wired connection. The other possibilities, I am thinking of, are hardware problems with PCI-bus or a virus affecting on a hardware level.

Jun 4, 2011I installed almost the complete install. I left off Apache, MySQL and PHP since I wanted to do them myself (which I did and it went fine). I selected KDE as the window manager but now I want to try xfce. When I boot up, I'm left at the command prompt and have to login (probably does that for everybody) then I run startx. That brings up my KDE. Are the xfce components installed and can I use something else to bring up that desktop? Or can I install it and then bring it up at the command after login?
