[opensuse-kde3] How is pulseaudio config handled in 11.4 & 12.1?
Ilya, All, How/where is the pulse audio config handled in kde3 that allows kde3 to integrate with it? Looking at ps, I get: 9184 ? Ssl 0:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start 9286 ? Sl 0:00 \_ /usr/lib/pulse/gconf-helper The sound system setting is set to use 'Autodetect' as the hardware. Looking at the pulseaudio site, it suggests that kde3 can interface with esd and pulse, but I don't find anything esd related on my 11.4 install. Can you point me to where the config for pulse and kde3 is? Thanks. I apologize if it is something simple I'm missing, but I'm interested in taking a look at it. -- David C.

What do you want to do? In Kaffeine, say, you can choose pulseaudio as an output device. In Yast you can disable pulseaudio with one click. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org

in my experience disabling pulseaudio in Yast still leaves problems in 12.1. The way i resolved mine was to install the pulseaudio equivalent of kmix, then everything worked. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org

What does not work for you with pulseaudio? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org

*with* pulseaudio in 12.1, with kde3, i have *zero* problems. *without* pulseaudio, even if it is simply disabled in yast, i have no mike and no skype in 12.1. earlier osses like 11.1 ( my old work horse) and 11.4 do not seem to need pulseaudio. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde3+owner@opensuse.org

Actually, I need to know how the kde sound system has been tweaked to allow it to work with pulseaudio. It is working on 11.4 and somehow it is working on an Arch x86_64 box, but I am receiving artsd crashes now on Arch i686 and I need to fix that. The problem is I can't figure out how pulse integrates with kde3 to begin with :( That why I was hoping to get a handle on the way openSuSE does it for 11.4 so then I could begin slogging through the config on Arch. Like where is the basic integration done? /opt/kde/what? or ~/.kde/share/where? or /etc/pulse? or /etc/xdg/autostart/? or /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/something? Somewhere in that soup of possible config locations, I am a bit lost as to how pulse is configured to provide sound for kde3. Anybody got a link or some notes on how this is done? -- David C.
