I've had problems with my sound that i mentioned in this topic: t=1386194 but noone answered so i started trying things.I've updated ALSA and managed to partially achieve what i wanted to, but other things gets messed even worse. I've get rid of choppy sounds problems and i can get sound from few applications UNLESS firefox isn't one of them.The problem is. If i start firefox first, and open a page that is using sound for example ..... and start a vid. Sound from all other applications is somehow blocked untill i'll turn off firefox. Or, when i start a music player, open firefox, pause player, start vid on ..... i have no sound from firefox.
What's weird is that i started quakelive (a web browser based game), started a movie in vlc, and went to system > preferences > Sound / Programs using output atm tab. And there was no apps at all, and both, firefox and vlc were playing sound. (screenshot attached to show this) How can i make firefox not to 'take' whole sound output?btw.
I've been having a recurring problem on Slackware64 13.1. If I open VLC (or any other media player available for Slackware) before I open Firefox, then my sound works 100% and there's never any problem, however, if I open Firefox first, and there happens to be a flash video loading, then any other media player (mplayer-plugin, Amarok or VLC) will fail to play sound. VLC tells me:
Quote: Potential ALSA version problem: VLC failed to initialize your sound output device (if any). update alsa-lib to version 1.0.24 or higher to try to fix this issue. Now, I'm happy to do that if it will actually fix the problem, though I'll have to figure out how seeing as I'm something of a n00b. The thing is that I've not really done anything to alsa except run alsaconf on my first boot, so I'm not sure if that's really the problem I've been using Slackware64 for a few months now, I'm on my first ever install and for the most part I'm loving it. Been working through the little things that have been annoying me, and for the most part I've managed to find solutions either by reading the Slackbook, by browsing LQ or by doing a quick Google search. However, I can't seem to find any reference to this specific problem anywhere and I'm not sure what I should do.
Running 10.10 and win 7 on my HP dv6-2150us laptop and I'm having a few issues.
First how do I get HDMI audio output to my TV? I think I have just a integrated Intel graphics card. It works fine in windows but I can't seem to get it to work in Ubuntu. I tried searching but couldn't find anything pertaining to this issue.
I don't know anything about ubuntu. Could you guys help me out. I'm pretty knowledgeable with windows if you guys need a printout of something let me know. My friends getting really frustrated about this. Help!!i
So here's the situation. He plugs his audio jack into his computer and then into the speakers but it still plays from the computer speakers.
I have a fresh install of Natty and i'm having some issues getting sound to work. My laptop has a built in sound card which works just fine. However, i also have a usb 5.1 sound card which isn't working at all. Both devices show up in 'Sound Preferences' but when i select the 5.1 device as the output device sound doesnt work. I ran the alsa-info.sh script and the output can be found here.
I am using a USB headset and a logitech QuickCam Pro 4000 with Ubuntu 10.04
1. When I change the sound to internal sound the webcam works in Skype but I have not sound. 2. When I change the sound to the USB headset (sound output) the webcam does not work in Skype.
xubuntu 11.4 . my VLC was still playing when i pressed "reboot",it didn't reboot till i closed the VLC window,then it rebooted to a crippled desktop environment.(i regenerated the problem 3 times)
description of the crippled environment in the setting manager the "windows manager tweaks" and "windows manager" were empty(no settings in them) no full screen with videos and pictures no transparency effects windows didn't have the title bar,and can not be moved (except firefox)open windows didn't appear in the panel message boxes appeared embedded in the parent window alt+tab didn't work and more so i created a new user and his desktop was healthy i repeated the reboot procedure described above, and the same problem appeared again and again.
When using TOR it is recommended that you disable javascript and all other scripts because they can be used to detect your IP, defeating the purpose of TOR.
But there are some sites that simply do not work without javascript. Is it possible to keep all javascript functionality but disable just the functionality that is used to leak your IP?
I have installed Fedora 10-x86_64. I was happy and content with the distribution. Earlier, I found that there is no sound on my headphone's jack where as the normal sound output from my laptops's speakers is OK. I fiddled with the available mixers but couldnt get anything. There seem to be 5 different mixers (HDA, ALSA, OSS), 3 for the playback and 2 for the capture.
I am using an acer 4530 laptop. It has a nvidia Nforce MCP77 chipset. and the o/p lsmod| grep snd :
OpenSUSE 11.2 x86_64 Kernel 2.6.33-34.1(from Kernel:HEAD repo) KDE 4.4.1
Did the daily set of updates today, which included the kernel, but that update only had to do with enabling IPV6 on all flavors of the kernel. The update also included updates to the xorg packages from the X11:XOrg repo. However I was prompted that a requirement couldn't be met and one of the options was to downgrade xorg-x11-driver-input to the previous revision (not previous version). I thought that wouldn't matter so I did it.
I reboot and I am able to choose the kernel I want in the grub boot screen, get to the KDM login screen, however, after that the input is totally dead! Mouse and keyboard don't work whatsoever. I have a Logitech Cordless Desktop Wave mouse (LX8) & keyboard so I tried it with a standard PS/2 wired mouse & keyboard but it produced the same exact problem.
I recently installed the x64 rpm of OSS on my Opensuse 11.2 installation (alsa does not have drivers for my lynx card). Sound works beautifully in KDE (login sounds, apps produce sound, etc), EXCEPT for firefox. I can get no sound at all from firefox. I am baffled at why only firefox does not play audio.
System: OpenSuse 11.2 (it is a pretty fresh install) OpenSoundSystem 4.2 KDE 4.4 (updated from factory repos)
I made a recent update to my Squeeze system and got this weird problem. mplayer, VLC and firefox (.....) all have sound. But when I try to run Amarok I get nothing. I looked into the Multimedia panel on the KDE4 system settings, and its not showing any devices at all. Previously it used to show HDA Intel etc., etc. Now the entries are completely blank. How do I get KDE to recognize my hardware? Shouldnt it pick things up automatically?
I ve done lsusb and it finds the usb speakers. but I cant get an output at all, whatever I do in preferences/sound or preferences/pulseaudio preferences.Booted with XP and speakers work fine. Sound worked fine with Lucid and has done until today with Maverick, did have similar probs with sound going sometimes with Karmic, but they could always be sorted by adjusting the settings, cant get anything and its sudden,
I recently installed Kubuntu 9.10 (I think, the latest anyway) on my gf's computer. Everything works great, except for the sound output. The volume control works, (both the buttons on the computer and inside Kubuntu) but there is no sound output whatsoever (not in vlc, system sound etc). Ive googled a little, and I've seen some tips about get it, right click in on sound settings in the panel, and choosing preferences, I don't seem to have that tab, however I've got a "show mixer window" where I the can adjust volume.
I've got 2 tabs here ; 'HDA ATI SB' and 'HDA ATI HDMI' I guess the first one is the one that is the ordinary output, the other if I connect a tv or something. I've also read something about 'alsa' and 'alsamix' I don't seem to have that one, and I've tried sudo apt- but I've haven't been able to find it. I dont know if it is of any importance, but it is the 64bit version of Kubuntu. I'm not sure about exactly what soundcard and driver I've got, but the computer (laptop) is a pretty new HP, and when I run:
Code: cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#*| grep Codec I get the answer Code: Codec : IDT 92HD75B3X5
As title suggest I can't output 5.1 sound with Ubuntu 10.4 which I nevere faced in earlier version like any 9.04 or 8.10,8.04 etc etc.I came from 9.04 to 10.4 and noticed that sound preference has changed which earlier have Windows XP Like long sound panel.My Board is Intel 945GTP which have 3 jack

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 and I am unable to get any sound output. My sound card is installed, cables are connected, and volume is up but I get no sound output. Here is what I see
I am using ekiga 3.2.7 on Natty and I am able to make pc-to-phone calls but I am not getting any sound on my speakers. The person on the other line is able to hear me, but I cannot hear him. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
I have Ubuntu 9.10, and am trying to get my headset to work with it. It's a USB headset, not a bluetooth headset. Anyway, the input is working. I switched my input from my internal mic to my USB one in my sound settings, and that fixed that. However, even if I set my output device to the USB, it still doesn't work. Does anyone have any advice? It works on Windows.
The headset is: Planet UP-100, Genius G-Talk Here's lsusb: Code: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 046d:c517 Logitech, Inc. LX710 Cordless Desktop Laser
I didn't want to put it in Absolute Beginner Talk; even though I am a beginner, I don't think this question is that simple to solve.Anyway, here's what's wrong: flite (festival lite) won't produce sound directly. When I run
Code: flite -t test no sound is produced. But when I run
I am not getting sound output from the system... i earlier got it...But after reinstalling I removed Sound applet from the Panel... Hardware is detected as it should be. I think it is because I configured the applet earlier, but as I removed it, I don't know how to restore it...
So tell me how to restore the sound applet as It is not coming in Add to panel menu....
Sound comes out of my laptop speakers, but only when hardware is selected as "Analog Stereo". "Digital Stereo" does not function at all. I don't think this is a priority though.
More importantly, my headphones do not have sound unless it is only partway plugged into the headphone jack. However, this does not help as sound is still coming out of my speakers. The instant I plug it all the way in, the sound disappears from both speakers and headphones. I have not tested this with multiple headphones (no access), but these ones work just fine in Windows 7 plugged in all the way.
I have tried an amazing number of things back in '09 when I was running 9.10, but gave up as no one could provide the answer. The threads that are related are: [URL] (Don't worry about read-only file stuff, that is all resolved) [URL]
I am now on a FRESH install of 10.04 Lucid Lynx, so any changes I made in attempt to fix it is gone.
Looking into alsamixer, I found that there is a headphones column, but no bar. It just says it's on. So headphones don't seem to have their own level of volume that's set too low.
Here are some outputs: lcat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec:
I just bought a powerful Sapphire nettop HD Mini-pc as shown here : [URL]
Installed a 32 bits version of ubuntu 10.10. Everything is working smoothly. So basically : - installed 10.10 with usb key on HDD - launch all update of the OS - installed Nvidia closed driver - update alsamixer to 1.0.23
So for now, I have in alsamixer 4 SPDIF out but no sound output from hdmi. HDMI output is well configured in the sound settings of ubuntu. I think this is linked to the ION 2 chipset and D510 proc.

I downloaded GnuBG (Gnu Backgammon) from repos. Despite enabling sound it remains silent.Can anyone confirm it's a problem on my side? I can't see any option to configure the sound output or anything.
I have one 3.5mm jack going from the back of my desktop motherboard to my monitor that has speakers. My case also has a 3.5mm jack for headphones.If I plug in the headphones, I will hear audio from both the monitor speakers and the headphones. If I go into the Gnome sound preferences and change the output connector from Analog Output to Analog Headphones..it's the same thing.My preference would be to have the monitor audio muted automatically whenever I plug in the headphones. I've searched other threads and can't seem to come up with a working solution.I've messed around in alsamixer and still no luck
I installed LMMS 0.4.5 on my computer (Ubuntu 9.10), but I'm getting no sound output from the program on ALSA, and whenever I try one of the other options (PulseAudio, OSS, etc.) it reverts to dummy audio. I tried installing JACK to correct the problem, but JACK seems to be giving errors and quitting, and in the past I've always used ALSA for LMMS and it's worked just fine.The problem is local to LMMS, even after a reinstall. My audio output is fine for all other programs I've tested the problem for so far.Also, I just noticed that my instances of LMMS are not being terminated after the windows are being closed...

I installed the vkeybd program to easily create some tunes, but when i push any of the keyboard buttons no sound comes out. I do have sound in programs like vlc. I thought jack and timidity may have something to do with it, but starting and clicking on things in those programs didnt get me anywhere because I dont have much understanding about them. How do I get a sound to come out of my speakers when i press a button in vkeybd?
