I did the check and it does say that PulseAudio is not installed.
I haven't done this bit, but will do it tonight.
Will post further information if the above does not work.

I have done this and the sound works (for mplayer, vlc etc., no sound for videos on youtube through Firefox or Opera) until I reboot the machine.

So a word or two about your hardware could be next step. lspci uname -a But it would be also good to open new thread, with question, and subject like above. General discussion about operating system will not solve your audio problem, and it is hard to find your answers in the pile of junk that such discussions generate. -- Regards, Rajko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi, I followed instructions given on : http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:AudioTroubleshooting#Symptom and http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Intel-HDA_sound_problems and the current status is that I get sound in mplayer, even after I log back in. The current problem is that the sound is very low, even though in KMix I have selected the appropriate channel and set the volume to 100%.

Try going to YaST > Hardware > Sound > Other > Volume and move the PCM and Master volume controls up there to about 85 (all of them, except "Capture Feedback"). At that time, also use the 'Test Sound' on the same tab, also 'Test Sound' from the drop-down menu at the bottom After this (if successful at 'Test Sound'), move up the volume settings in KMix/Mixer.

Check that your ALSA version is updated (firmware same as for your kernel version), by doing: $ rpm -qa | grep alsa If not, update ALSA (all) + ALSA Driver as mentioned here: http://forums.opensuse.org/hardware/406979-my-sound-very-low-headphones-wont.... It may help to reinstall (the latest versions of) all, in any case. Now, test sound again (as above).

Well, that's good. Be sure not to enlighten us as to your solution as I am reasonably sure that there will never be anyone else that has the same problem and *might* search the archives for a solution. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
Has the OP found a solution? If not, above is definitely relevant (it is relevant even otherwise). It also helped the thread OP to solve his/her ALSA sound issue, if you care to read the thread fully. Note also that the weblinks reference general troubleshooting for sound problems, so the matter of 'my solution'/_a_specific_ solution is not relevant.
.... sure that there will never be anyone else that has the same problem and *might* search the archives for a solution.
OTOH, (the relevant thread from archives/forums) is likely to show up on a Google search for the problem, esp if 'openSUSE'/'Suse' is in the search field.

It is better to point user to "in house" solution then to let him find on his own *buntu, that has stronger web presence, or some other distro that by accident has text with 1 relevant keyword more than openSUSE. While we are all Linux, I'm reluctant to let people make mistake and go elswhere.
