http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=527428 Summary: No way to configure sound output channel through yast Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 4 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: ajohansson@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- In 11.2, intelhdmi is available and works. In KDE's "multimedia" module I can see and configure KDE to use the HDMI output by default. In YaST though, that doesn't seem to be possible. I can configure mplayer manually to use the correct output channel, and alsa to use it by default for everything, but if it's possible to do this in YaST's sound module, it's certainly not obvious how. So far, everything I've tried has resulted in normal analog output, which since I only have a HDMI cable connected to this machine, results in no sound output at all YaST needs to have an interface where the user is able to select the correct output channel to use -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The sound configuration (default routing) depends pretty much on which sound backend you use. If you are using pulseaudio, it can be chosen via pavucontrol on the fly. If you are using ALSA-native apps without PA, the default routing can be changed by defining in either ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I mean, we have PA and other daemons/backends, so I think it should be solved on the application (or desktop) level.

Right from the install, the system was completely silent, because pulseaudio uses the default alsa output. During the installation there was no way of making yast play the test sound. I had to go to the pulseaudio config in kde and change all the sound channels there. Once that was done, kde programs (and other programs that use pulse) could play sound, but everything else was still silent. mplayer, for example, and the flash plugin in firefox, because these do not use pulse. mplayer can be forced to use it, but not flash, as far as I know. I believe YaST should be able to configure the default output channel in asound.conf, because it seems to be the only way of getting the whole system in one go. What we have now will lead an inexperienced user to think his sound is just broken. It's just not usable And, as I said, if we drop pulseaudio, as was discussed by development at least for kde, then we have no clear way of configuring things at all. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
