sound problems in kde
Hello everybody, I have some problems with the sound in KDE. I have a sound card for which there is an ALSA driver and it is loaded as a module with the 2.6.4 kernel. The mixer settings are alright, the sound in unmuted. Once I start KDE I can only hear a very low volume sound though -- and for that I have to pump up the volume of my speakers -- no matter what application I use. This problem does not reproduce if I use IceWM -- however it does appear if I, for instance, start KDE, close it and then start IceWM. So the only way to actually have sound is to start IceWM as the first session and stick with it. I have had this problem before, and it was solved by installing some mysterious SDL library package. Now it doesn't work though... (the problem surfaced once I did one of the regular "apt-get upgrade"s) I would appreciate any help... Thank you in advance! Dumitru Erhan
