Right click on sound applet in gnome panel -> Click on Sound Preferences -> Click on applications. This should show which applications are using pulseaudio. If that still doesn't help then open a terminal window and type lsof | grep snd This will give you a list of programs accessing the snd device. You might need to install the lsof package. _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
