[opensuse] FF 52ESR complains about pulseaudio missing
42.3, recently installed FF 45.x plays online videos from www.doctoroz.com, but 52 plays no audio, complaining I "may" need to install pulseaudio. gstreamer1, libdvdcss2, libpulse0 and pulseaudio are installed.

I'd start with 'strace -e file' to possibly see where FF fails. Maybe that gives you a clue, Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I wonder if your problem is related to this issue discussed here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/no-sound-firefox-59-linux I don't have this problem in Firefox on opensuse, but did in pclinuxos. I tried all the fixes that I could find on the page above and also on this page below and none of them worked. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/what-to-do-if-firefox-wont-play-an y-sounds Perhaps if you tried to regress to an earlier version, or downloaded and installed linux firefox 60 the problem could be resolved?

I supposed it must give someone a clue. I don't recognize anything helpful.

The lines such as this one: stat("/usr/lib64/pulseaudio/tls/x86_64", 0x7ffe2eb0eff0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) mean that the file (in the double-quotes) is not found ("-1 ENOENT"). This first thing to do then is to check ("ls -l" should be good enough) to determine if the file truly does not exist and if the ownership and permissions seem proper. If a file doesn't exist, then perhaps you're missing a package. There is/was a way to search using yum for specific files within packages. I'm still learning zypper, so perhaps someone else can offer the zypper args needed to search packages on a repo for a specific file. FWIW, here are pulse-related packages installed on my system, where audio is working everywhere I've tried it (online videos, skype, google hangouts, silly sound effects from apps, and others): $ rpm -qa *pulse* libpulse0-9.0-8.1.x86_64 alsa-plugins-pulse-1.1.4-1.1.x86_64 apulse-0.1.10-1.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-gconf-9.0-8.1.x86_64 libpulse0-32bit-9.0-8.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-utils-9.0-8.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-bash-completion-9.0-8.1.x86_64 libxine2-pulse-1.2.8-1.1.x86_64 mpg123-pulse-1.25.10-13.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-9.0-8.1.x86_64 apulse-32bit-0.1.10-1.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-zeroconf-9.0-8.1.x86_64 libpulse-mainloop-glib0-9.0-8.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-utils-32bit-9.0-8.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-lang-9.0-8.1.noarch pulseaudio-module-lirc-9.0-8.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-x11-9.0-8.1.x86_64 alsa-plugins-pulse-32bit-1.1.4-1.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-9.0-8.1.x86_64 hth, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

That directory or file does not exist in a Leap 42.3 system with pulse installed. The "tls" directory does not exist. Normally the program would then test another location, or do something else if "tls", whatever that is, is not installed. For instance, I see /usr/lib/tls and /usr/lib64/tls, but related to nvidia. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)

Mozilla upstream dropped support for plain ALSA for 52 and only supports pulseaudio. The openSUSE builds still support ALSA fwiw.

I'm not a pulseaudio expert. I switched ages ago and have no idea what I did. Probably YaST has taken care in the sound settings. Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I wouldn't have problem using the rpms if I wasn't limited to just one version installed at a time. It'd certainly be simpler. :-p

That's one thing YaST rarely has ever helped me with. With Alsa, either alsactl init works, or some special configuration is needed that YaST can't handle.

Felix, I used the mozilla.org 52.X on Leap 42.2 and had sound working fine. (I also had pulseaudio pulled in by some other depends or recommends). I'm using the opensuse 52.7esr on 42.3 and sound is working fine there too. On 42.3 I have the following pulseaudio files: libpulse-mainloop-glib0-9.0-8.1.x86_64 libpulse0-32bit-9.0-8.1.x86_64 libpulse0-9.0-8.1.x86_64 libxine2-pulse-1.2.8-1.1.x86_64 pulseaudio-utils-32bit-9.0-8.1.x86_64 Works fine with K3. -- David C.
