flashplayer: sound output and input does not work.
Last modified: 2009-10-13 11:28:20 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. grep flash-player /var/log/zypp/history 2009-08-27 19:42:25|install|pullin-flash-player|11.2-1.4|x86_64|2888:y2base|openSUSE 11.2-0|90dd2e37ad824b4a01daf36196e80ad9d7591500 2009-08-28 13:12:24|install|flash-player|10.0.32.18-2.1|i586||repo-non-oss|e8e0831e33cc66910538b1b5d9fbea8acc34339e Reproducible: Always
does the flash standalone player work for you? do you have pulseaudio installed or running?
It does not work with the standalone player either. pulseaudio-0.9.15-4.3 is installed.
Any suggestions on what to do ??

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.
I believe this is because of libflashsupport being installed. please reopen if thats not the case for you. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 539656 ***
