I keep reading comments on this list that one can remove pulseaudio
from f9 and it will run like a normal alsa system.
I have removed
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio
and libflashsupport
from my f9 system, rebooted.
Sound in Flash in Firefox works just fine, but aplay doesn't.
If aplay doesn't work I wonder about mplayer, totem, and the other sound
producing programs that I havent tested.
So, is there anything else I should be removing to get back to
'just alsa' ????
I would really like to understand what is going on here.
It was very easy for me, here is the relevant portion of my yum.log
from when i removed it:
Sep 20 02:09:44 Erased: alsa-plugins-pulseaudio
Sep 20 02:09:44 Erased: pulseaudio-module-x11
Sep 20 02:09:44 Erased: pulseaudio
Sep 20 02:09:49 Erased: pulseaudio-module-zeroconf
Sep 20 02:09:49 Erased: pulseaudio-module-gconf
Sep 20 02:09:50 Erased: kde-settings-pulseaudio
Sep 20 02:09:50 Erased: pulseaudio-esound-compat
Thanks, I should have thought of that.
I already had a 'rpm -qa | sort > rpms.list.f9' that I could have
looked at...
In any case, I removed all the modules I found in the above list,
rebooted, and as ME, I have no audio in either aplay nor firefox.
Doing a su and trying again, I have audio both places, so it seems
that there is still a permission problem somewhere.
Here is the output from aplay
[reg@deneb AU]$ aplay wheee.au

Any further thoughts???
If I could get some sound working, I could move to f9.
I'm sure that there is a "proper" way to do it, but I just put the
following in rc.local and sound works :
cd /dev/snd
chmod 666 *
