[opensuse] KDE4.4 and using USB headset for all system sounds
What is the "right" way to redirect all system sounds to a USB headset when it's plugged in? (using KDE4.4 and openSUSE 11.2) I can easily configure apps such as Skype and Ekiga to use the headset... that's not much of a problem.. but what about say... Firefox. Assume I.m play YouTube vids, and need ot push the audio through the USB headset. How do I do this? At one point when I plugged in a USB headset, I got a popup asking if I wanted the headset to be the default device. I answered No at the time... shoudl I have answered Yes? Other possibilities... using Configure > Multimedia ? OK, but what in that list is "enough" to push sound through the headset? Is it enough to just prefer the USB headset on all options? The extra difficulty in this equation is, this is all on a laptop with a fresh install of 11.2 upgraded to KDE4.4 and then... remote where I cannot log into the machine, and the person using the laptop is not all that computer knowledgeable. Is there some "simple" way to achieve this? Plug in the headset and all sound is directed through the headset.. unplug it and it defaults back to teh speakers with no user interaction.... or is this still a pipe dream?
