I don't know what exactly was the cause, but it was related to packman packages. I downgraded some packages, then upgraded again, trying to find out which package caused it, but didn't. Except that sound worked after the first downgrade of a bunch of packages. Things got complicated by yast trying to solve dependencies, it installed a bunch of -32 bit packages, even some 586 ones (which I do not know why they exist, Leap has no 586 version). These: cer@Telcontar:/data/storage_c/repositorios_zypp/15_2/EXT_Packman/Essentials/i586> ls libavcodec58-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libavfilter7-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libavresample4-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libpostproc55-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libswscale5-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libavdevice58-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libavformat58-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libavutil56-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm libswresample3-4.2.1-pm152.2.6.1.i586.rpm <http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1185346> -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

For next time (there's always a next time with audio): $ speaker-test -twav -c2 It's very handy for trouble-shooting audio with stable and predictable output (increase the number of channels if you have a surround sound setup etc). It's packaged in the alsa-utils that are installed with most base systems. Daniel

Well, sound is broken again. That test produces sound like the speakers having sand inside. VLC too. YaST test sound doesn't produce anything. I deleted the sound card, added it back, no sound. But, now "speaker-test -twav -c2" produces good sound. Vlc too. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
