That's reassuring. I'm always afraid the desktops will take over to the exclusion of simpler systems. http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=225660 I've followed the instructions in that web page. That is, I removed pulseaudio, rebooted, reinstalled pulseaudio and associated packages, and rebooted again. And I've run gst-mixer and alsamixer and set all the volume sliders I can find to maximum. padevchooser, however, does nothing when run from the command line -- no window appears, and the application just hangs, doing nothing, until interrupted. vlc is set to use pulseaudio as output, and pavucontrol shows it playing.
