openSUSE 11.0 (i586) VERSION = 11.0 GNOME
I cannot open the volume control, I get "Connection failed: Connection refused", when I double-click the volume icon on the menubar.
Anyone else seeing this? -- David L. Martin
I'm not seeing this, but I do know it's sometimes an issue with openSUSE 11.0. It's caused by a glitch in the GNOME sound service PulseAudio.
Can you play any sound, or change the volume from the slider on the first click of the volume applet? Also, what kind of sound hardware do you have (you can find out by going to Computer menu > Control Center > YaST > Sound)?
I tried to find an open bug with this situation, but my search came up empty. So you may want to file a new bug: http://bugs.opensuse.org
snd-intel8x0 is the driver
Sound does not work in wesnoth, but works everywhere else.
I can call up the applet directly (via gnome menu), but not by clicking on the menu bar speaker.
During the install of SUSE 11.0, I had my USB headset (skype use),
plugged into the server. This might have caused the issue.
With the headset removed (turtle beach clone), and rebooting I was able
to make this bug go away.
