Hi all,
Under root, when I run system-config-sound I can play the test no
problem. I saved and exit. But when I play a mp3 (with plug-in mp3
from Livna) with audacious I got always error message:
----------------------------------
Couldn't open audio
Please check that:

My card is VIA, model AC97, module snd-via82xx and it works very well
under FC7.
Any help please !
Thanks,
This is probably a pulseaudio issue. To check, do a
yum remove pulseaudio-alsa
If sound works like it did in Fedora 7 after this, then there is a
misconfiguration in the pulseaudio - ALSA link.
I don't need any of the functionality that pulseaudio provides so
I turned it off in the configuration file (go to www.pulseaudio.org
for documentation as there doesn't appear to be any packaged with
Fedora).
Hope that helps.
Forgot to mention that I had issues with esound as well in Fedora
rawhide. For that I used command
esdctl off
to turn it off. Worked as a regular user.
