Hi,
... Actually, it is not the sound that is weired, but the way how I have
to activate my sound.
When I log in with KDM I have the normal system sounds. However, if I
want to start another sound application, like the ALSA player or XMMS, I
don't get any sound output. Starting the ALSA player turns my mouse
pointer in the hour glass for several seconds, like when the application
is started, and then nothing happens. Starting XMMS works fine, but when
I want to play a song, I get the error message, that the sound driver is
not accessible.
The weired thing now is, that if I start the KDE control center, go to
the sound configuration and press the 'apply' button, without actually
changing anything, suddenly the ALSA player pops up and starts playing,
and the XMMS plays now as well.
Can anybody give me a hint what is going on with my computer?
It looks to me something is hogging the sound driver, but why does it
get released after 'applying' the control center configuration?
BTW, I have a Micro-Star motherboard with on board 82801DB AC'97 Audio
Controller.
Thanks for the help.

Hello,
I have a laptop with SUSE 9.0 installed (ALSA 0.9.6). I am happy with the 9.0
distro so I'm not looking to upgrade this laptop to SUSE 9.1. However I would
really like to update ALSA to 1.0.6 (or later), does anyone have any
suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks,
Paul
KdeTV shows ALSA and OSS as sound drivers, none of them working.
XMMS can play sound fine.
Remember the ALSA errors from dmesg? Any idea of how to get sound in
KdeTV working?
Regards,
Alin-Adrian Anton.
thanks for the reply,
the whole digital/audio/ide discrepancy has never been an issue before. i
don't have a digital cable, i use audio for playback and ide (digital audio
extraction) for ripping. that always seemed to work automatically, even on
linux. but knowing alsa, they probably wanted to add another setting on their
mixer ( i counted 37 on mandrake 10 for my audigy!!!). i think i mentioned
earlier, i have sound disabled in control center (i'm not worried about
system sounds at this point!). this is what i did,
-enabled sound in kde control center
- changed to oss
- tried kscd - no joy
-tried xmms - no joy
-changed to digital audio extraction in xmms - cd audio works
-disabled sound in kde control center - cd audio still works on xmms
there seems to be no rhyme or reason to these problems. it was easier to set
up an isa sound card with parameters with oss. my guess is there is a setting
in alsa mixer for this. i found something called 'audigy cd' that sounded
like it might fit and was unmuted but at zero. pushed it up to 80 and
switched back to analog in xmms - l no sound.
i am extremely frustrated with this issue and suse 9.1 in general. i'm also
diappointed to hear there is no support for sound. they probably don't think
it's necessary?! is this a novell thing? i didn't have any problems with
sound on 8.1. is it the 2.6 kernel? is it alsa? ( i've had a lot of problems
alsa elsewhere - namely fedora core2 x86_64). anyway, suse slapped this mess
together so they are responsible!
anyhow, i apprecaite the help i'm getting here. and since i laid down a good
chunk of dough on suse pro (ha-ha) 9.1 i'm committed (forced) to finding
solutions. hope there are some clues in my latest attempts. thanks
hello,
i get no sound with gnome or kde (sometimes an awful noise at an error
message in kde) even though the install and test sounds work. sound
works fine from the command line with mpg123. i tried the solution in
the SDB (muted sound etc in 9.1) and it didn't work
running 9.1 pro x86_64 (already submitted a query to that mailing list)
with a soundblaster audigy. runs fine in slackware 10 x86 (kernel 2.6.7)
and mandrake 10 x86 (kernel 2.6.3, i think it's a 2.6 kernel at any rate)
no reply from suse support yet., i bought a copy that supposedly has 3
months support? thanks
Hi David,

The audio card is an Asus A7V8X-X, and it works neat with XMMS and mplayer,
but not with the tunner.

Hi all,
Yesterday I did a clean install of Suse 9.1. My tv-card (Pinnacle PCTV)
did get recognized properly and I could watch television on my pc. The
problem I had was that I didn't have any sound. I tried different sound
settings from the configuration panel in kdetv, but it wouldn't work.
This morning when I turned on my computer I couldn't watch tv anymore.
The appropriate device (bt878) was no longer in the list under "Devices"
in kdetv. I removed the card from the configuration center and added it
again. When I tried to scan for channels I got an error message saying
that /dev/video0 doesn't exist.
How can I fix it and how do I get sound?
Kind regards,
Bert Meersma

Please accept my appologises for the very long period of silence.
I've been working hard to repair a dead server, then school started. Bad
excuses, I'm sorry.
Ok.. Regarding your questions about the sound...
The sound works nice with XMMS, with mplayer, etc.
All the entries in the sound mixer were enabled, and they have decent
volume levels. None is muted.
Inside the PC, there is a cable which connects the tvtunner with the
soundcard. The very same hardware works with sound without problems, in
Windows.
Btw, the friend, who is a priest, thanks all of the SuSE team and congrats
them, he likes his new replacement for Windows.He asked me to mention that.
So, furthermore, I don't know what else could be wrong.. Defenately,
something is..
Thanks David.
Yours,
