Description Elmar Stellnberger 2009-09-04 18:58:58 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.5; Linux) KHTML/3.5.10 (like Gecko) SUSE

  Due to some reason flash-player does not give me any sound output while f.i. vlc plays well. That has also been a permanent issue for Opensuse 11.1. Initially it has worked for a short time after installing but now it does not. It does not make any difference whether I open the flashplayer-webpage with Konqueror or Firefox.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Dirk Mueller 2009-09-08 10:57:12 UTC

does the flash standalone player work for you?

do you have pulseaudio installed or running?

Comment 2 Elmar Stellnberger 2009-09-08 16:25:39 UTC

It does not work with the standalone player either.
pulseaudio-0.9.15-4.3 is installed.

Comment 3 Elmar Stellnberger 2009-09-11 18:08:06 UTC

Any suggestions on what to do ??

Comment 5 Elmar Stellnberger 2009-09-21 09:28:04 UTC

  Perhaps the problem was related to selecting the right sound device (bug 540576). Two devices were recognized but only KDE-Phonon seemed to select the right one.

Comment 6 Dirk Mueller 2009-10-13 11:28:20 UTC

I believe this is because of libflashsupport being installed. please reopen if thats not the case for you.
