This is something I just found when searching the /var/log/message file
but this is not related to ALSA, but to rhgb:
Jan 7 13:11:44 localhost kernel: audit(1199740241.970:9): avc: denied {
read write } for pid=1775 comm="consoletype" path="/dev/pts/0"
dev=devpts
ino=2 scontext=system_u:system_r:consoletype_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:rhgb_devpts_t:s0 tclass=chr_file As for ALSA
issues, there was a problem writing to /etc/asound.state and to ~/.asoundrc
but this is not recorded where I can find it. It only happens during
logoff/shutdown and I see it very briefly and it appears to be an 'alsactl
store' command failure and *maybe* the log below is related to it but I
cannot confirm it.
Jan 8 12:28:30 gold kernel: audit(1199823854.622:4): avc: denied {
getattr } for pid=1264 comm="salsa"
path="/usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf"
dev=sda5 ino=147458 scontext=system_u:system_r:alsa_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
tcontext=system_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 tclass=file I DO know that alsactl is
not able to set the volume control settings for which I am forced to reset
every time at login after a boot. There was some months ago that Daniel
Walsh wrote as a bug report in getting the /etc/asound.state moved to
/var/lib directory and it was written on Sept 17, 2007.
Is there any resolution to this issue? Seems that no one is responding
as to what I can to do try to analyze or to fix this issue?
