I am using F18 + KDE on a notebook. I have an nvidia video card (GeForce GTX 560M) which inclues HDMI support but I am not using the HDMI output, only the internal screen and speakers. On F17, everything was fine. On F18, the keyboard volume buttons (stop, more, less) do not work anymore. I can see the box with percentage changing and sound/no sound icon but it does not do anything. Also, when I click in the panel volume icon (KMix), I can see that HDA nvidia digital stereo (HDMI) is selected but I do not want to use that one, I want to use the internal speaker. Also, pluging a headset do not work properly. In KMix control panel, I see that HDA NVidia is selected for "sound card" but if I choose Internal audio, it comes back later to HDA NVidia. I do not know what to do to have this working normally. I see from another thread that maybe this could be related to pulseaudio. It seems pulseaudio is not working for me: $ pulseaudio --check gives empty output. $ ps ux|grep puseaudio gives nothing either (as root) Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Frédéric

In KDE, if you bring up "System Settings" and then go to "Multimedia-->Phonon" and then look at all the various "Audio Playback" categories you should see a number of entries. HDMI should be down in the list to give it less preferential treatment.

I have done that but it always comes back later to the top of the list!
New strange thing: I have just plugged my camcorder and obtained the following message in a popup window: "KDE a détecté qu'un ou plusieurs périphériques internes ont été enlevés. Voulez-vous que KDE oublie ces périphériques de façon permanente ? Voici la liste des périphériques que KDE pense être enlevés : Sortie : HDA Intel PCH, ALC892 Analog (Default Audio Device)" which I can try to translate like this: "KDE detected that one or more internal devices have been removed. Would you like that KDE forgets those devices for ever? Here is the list of devices that KDE thinks are removed: Output : HDA Intel PCH, ALC892 Analog (Default Audio Device)"

That is strange..... When it is at the top is everything working correctly?
My system is a desktop and I have no issues. I'm using, forced to use, the nVidia drivers since my GT240 card isn't supported by nouveau.

I get something like that from time to time. Don't know what triggers it and forgetting the devices has never caused my issues.
My system is a fresh install, except for the /home directory.

Hey, look, I just answered Yes to forget the device and everthings works perfectly now. Hope it won't come bad again. Frédéric
