Hello,
Raymond Wooninck
(...) I took the decision to deinstall it as that I was facing the problem that with PA active, kmix starts with the sound muted. Removing PA solved that issue completely :)
Muted channels is an ALSA issue, whereas PA is a sound server and does not touch ALSA settings at all. To be on the safe way, save your ALSA channel settings: make the settings with kmix according to your needs, then save them with this command: /usr/sbin/alsactl -f ~/.my-sound-settings store and with the following command you can load these settings at any time again if needed or lost: /usr/sbin/alsactl -f ~/.my-sound-settings restore You can put this command in a little shell script e.g. in ~/.kde4/Autostart/ so your settings would be loaded each time you login to KDE :-) Malte -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
