There is fate feature #305888 (Disable Pulse Audio by default). KDE has no hard dependency on Pulse Audio (unlike, as far as I understood, GNOME), so we can handle this issue ourselves. Even if we decide to disable it by default for KDE, there would be of course still the option to enable it, for those who would like that (it's in the YAST sound module somewhere).
Right now, pulse is the only easy way I have to play sound over HDMI. The YaST sound settings won't do it at all. From a tip on factory I'm able to force mplayer to do it, but all other sounds are over pulse or not at all.
So if you disable pulseaudio, please make sure that the yast sound module has a way of selecting the sound output channel
This sounds like a bug somewhere (not KDE) to me. Pulse uses eventually ALSA anyway, so it Pulse is able to do it, why shouldn't ALSA be able to do it on its own too? I think you should rather report a Yast or sound bug for this. -- Lubos Lunak KDE developer -------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: l.lunak@suse.cz , l.lunak@kde.org Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 084 672 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
