As it comes up or down it will play a small short tune as it come up and goes down. This does assume that yast2>Hardware>Sound has been set and the levels are up. Once complete do the same thing in root. Note that KDE4s short music plays while coming up. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.In run level 3 use startx as a user 2.as KDE4 comes up there is no sound and Multimedia shows nothing but Dummy 3.Now try it as root - it will work Actual Results: As a user the sound fails. As root it works So Amarok, anything TV or flash fails to work as a user. It worked in 11.4 12.1 3 and fails in 12.1 5. Expected Results: As a user in runlevel 3 I would expect the sound to work on things like Kmix, gamix, amarok, tvtime, kradio and anything with flash audio. And that KDE4 was be able to play it start/stop sounds. I have changed dsp, mixer, and audio to 666 from 660 to allow apps to use it I have set it up in yast2>Hardware>Sound and a reasonable level again it works as root but not as a user. I have run SuSEconfig looking for permissions error. I have made sure the user was added to /etc/group/audio -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
