https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=780907 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=780907#c4 --- Comment #4 from Andrea Turrini 2012-09-19 08:44:17 UTC --- Other apps I tried (clementine, vlc, thunderbird, smplayer) work smoothly, no problems at all. I tried to downgrade to PA from oS 12.1 but nothing changes, so I reverted to the version from oS 12.2. I have also performed other experiments and the problem does not seem to be related to plugging the jack: even if I do not plug it (or I keep it plugged), the problem occurs. However, if I make a test sound, I hear it. Then, if I induce a sound event, for the following 5 seconds (more or less) the test sound fails and then it works again. In the same time window, available devices are as in the non-working screenshot, then they come back as in the working screenshot. If you note, in both screenshot there is the device "sysdefault (unknown)", so it seems it is always available. However, still no sound in the window. On the other hand, if I make a test call, then every other sound (clementine, thunderbird, vlc, smplayer) is blocked until some second after I end the test call. In particular, if I make the test call and then I ask clementine to play a song, clementine's time bar moves for 1 second and then stops until I end the test call. Note that thunderbird, clementine, smplayer, and vlc are able to interact each other with PA without problems. Finally if I run pavucontrol and no sound event occurs, then skype is not working with devices as in the non working screenshot until I close pavucontrol. If you need some other info, you have to tell me how to obtain them. -- 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.

So, strictly speaking, the bug can be closed. However I think it can be worth to investigate why there was this strange behavior and check whether this is just a symptom of some other problem. -- 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.
