Hello all,
I just installed F12 on my private workstation, and upgrade the
"built-in" KDE to 4.3.4 from kde-redhat unstable (x86_64, some i686 libs
taken from the i386 repo).
Login, logout, and no more sound.
By looking at the control center, I can see that KDE only sees the
Pulseaudio sound server (instead of Pulse + on-board HDA Intel (alsa) +
SB Audigy 2 (alsa) and USB microphone (USB camera).
Far worse, when I try to test the pulse audio server (from the control
center), I get a "Pulse audio server not responding - falling back to
(empty).".
Trying to access the pulse server from pavucontrol or mplayer (-ao
pulse), seems to work OK, so it doesn't look like a pulse problem.
I moved to init 1, killed all the user-mode services, cleaned /tmp
and /var/tmp and switched back to init 5, with no effect.
Switching backends from xine to gstreamer, had little effect.
Any ideas?
