Hi Jakub,

do you know, if we have Pulseaudio in upcoming Distro-Versions as default?
I bet, yes. But newer ALSA and kernel may have fixed some snd_pcm_avail/snd_pcm_delay problems which made PA crash so often (Intel HDA and Intel something are most probably already fixed, my VIA82xx, apparently not).
OK.But why we need Pulseaudio. In past Versions we had alsa. But now we have two Sound Manager.
It's made audio inoperable on my boxes for any application where the hardware isn't specifically addressed. Regards Sid.
Same thing here. Nothing with sound is working including Firefox, Amarok, Xine and Skype.
With the default config if PulseAudio is going to be used for something then is must be used for everything. PulseAudio default config block the sound card, yes... if you don't use the ALSA pulse plugin then all ALSA apps will have no sound. That's why the Gnome startup script changes the ALSA config to use the pulse plugin. Enable PulseAudio using hw:0 without using the ALSA pulse plugin? Sure, it's a bad idea. Nobody proposes such a thing. But if you use the ALSA pulse plugin all those apps will have sound. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
