Felix, Is this a bug report? I do not see a single question mark in the email, so I suspect this is the case If so, then I have some advice for filing a good bug report TITLE: Keep your bug report title as professional, technical, and precise. Do not use words like "horrific" which is a statement of opinion, not a matter of fact. Such emotional language is likely to annoy the person who's working on the area you want fix, so ultimately the choice of language will make it *less likely* that they want to help you BACKGROUND INFO: Include details about your system. This is especially true when reporting bugs that are already covered by openQA (and Audio Playback already is). In those cases you need to explain what is different about your system from openQA and everyone elses systems that are working fine. So details about your hardware, such as the exact video card you have, should be considered mandatory. Comparing the video card you actually have with the one detected by YaST might be a helpful troubleshooting step. DETAILED DOCUMENTATION: Explain, in detail, everything you have done that makes your installation different from a default. You accomplished this to some degree in your email ("At first I excluded all *pulse*") but such details should be made clear, ideally bullet points, not just throw into the mix. In this case I also suspect you've added additional repositories (as your problem seems to actually be codec related, not audio related, I suspect you've added packman) - such steps are very important to mention. And last, but most certainly most important FILE YOUR BUGS IN BUGZILLA - This is a mailinglist, for discussions. If this email is a bug report, and I see no reason to suspect it as something else, it has no place here and should be filed as a bug in https://bugzilla.opensuse.org If you didn't intend for this email to be seen as a bug, but as a prompt to start a conversation I'd recommend a totally different writing style, especially the following TITLE: Productive discussions don't start by someone declaring something as 'horrific'. "Confused with TW Audio Configuration" would have been a much more enticing title for a call for help and discussion LESS DETAIL: If you want to start a discussion, we don't need to see your package list. This isn't a bug report. Keep the details relevant, and maybe refer to your bug report with the details. Otherwise keep the message on point - what are the key issues, what are your thoughts, what are you questions? ASK QUESTIONS: You're not going to trigger a meaningful conversation with shouting loudly declaring the state of something is bad. Ask questions about the reasoning behind it, try and learn more about the situation, give suggestions as to how we can make it better. This is opensuse-factory, not opensuse-soapbox ----- And now, regardless of your intent of your email, I will respond in the best way I can
At first I excluded all *pulse*
So, it looks like you broke it. Don't you think there is a reason pulseaudio is the default audiostack in openSUSE? Have you tried this without removing it? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
