If you use Apper then that it is known problem. Use YOU (yast online updater) that respects locks, unlike package kit that is used as Apper backend.
Doh!
Modify /etc/sysconfig/sound, set PULSEAUDIO_ENABLE="yes", reboot.
BAM! Works.
Doh!
My comment was for eddie's problem with Apper. When I wrote it, there was no time to look in audio stuff. Also, I don't have special requirements for audio setup, so default works fine for me; no trouble with PulseAudio, or better to say I'm not aware of problems. My only problem with audio is that Phonon devices setup somehow like Nvidia HD audio (High Definition Audio Controller) built in a graphics card that sends sound to HDMI connector and there is nothing connected. Internal Audio, which sends sound to speakers is second, despite any edit; as soon as I leave Phonon Audio Hardware setup and start again, even without leaving Configure Desktop, HD audio is again first device. Luckily audio events in Phonon Device Preferences stay as configured, so I have audio all the time. http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_sound_setup This is setup in few images for people that have no sound because HD audio is used as preferred for all events, instead of internal audio, like in this image: http://en.opensuse.org/images/3/35/KDE_sound_setup-configure-desktop-multime... Also, your "BAM! Works" could be because you are lucky and have only one audio device, so desktop is not confused what to offer and just enabling PA makes all work. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
