Apology, my mistake, it should be: ...,except i put the user in 'audio' group. ... Hm, I installed openSUSE 11.3 RC1 from KDE4 64 bit LiveCD. There were no sound at first. But after reboot - sound worked fine. In other installation of 11.3 RC1 from KDE4 32 bit LiveCD, sound also not worked, but it started to work after "rcalsasound restart". So in my case group has no sense. It was just for first run of installed system. Excuse-me, I can't reproduce error in one other installation of openSUSE 11.3 RC1 KDE LiveCD 64 bit (after third fresh install it works). I have the same trouble with Azalia. However, I wouldn't agree that there is no sound at all. It is there but is virtually inaudible. I tried adding group "audio" but this made no difference. I've changed the default to "audio" but the screen has locked up before the operation was complete so I don't know if it will work. I've just made a clean install of the final version of 11.3 and still get no sound on the machine with the Azalia sound device. This bug makes the machine unusable on 11.3. Can something be done about it, please? I've installed AlsaMixerGUI and run it. I noticed that the first channel, "Master Front," was set at zero so I clicked on the columns to raise it to the max. The volume then worked. On another user, I looked at the Kmix display and saw that there was no "Master Front" displayed, just "Front" and a few others. I went into configuration and added "Master Front", raised it to the max, and got full volume on a test. A check on Kmix 11.2 and 11.3 revealed that the "Master" channel seems to have been renamed "Master Front" and so, apparently, got dropped from the default display. Is this a Kmix change that caused the problem? I don't understand how as I've used KDE 4.4.4 on both 11.2 and 11.3 without this problem showing up on 11.2. I had the same Proplem (Bug 622812) with sound on eeePC 100H. AlsaMixerGUI was the Solution: PCSpeaker was silent, although KMIX PC-Speaker was fully on. So, i put the PCSpeaker Sound on AlsaMixerGUI also fully on. Now it works. I think it was my old bug, and should be set to be resolved as openSUSE 11.4 solves the issue. Thanks. |
