install and run pavucontrol. apps that use pulseaudio will appear in pavucontrol when making sound, and those that do should all work together. any apps that dont appear in pavucontrol will not work with any apps that do.
i think the best idea is to look for and report individual applications that dont use pulseaudio by default (so dont appear in pavucontrol) in individual bug reports, rather than doing confusing bug reports about incompatibilities between various applications, and not knowing which app is the broken one. Then you can focus on what the real bugs are. eg for vlc: bug #208579 (fix included) for mpd: bug #192735 (fix included) for audacious: bug#175536 (easy to fix) programs using sdl: bug #203158 (fix included) this is the way to make things smooth for the release skype doesnt work very well at the moment, lets all go and nag skype about it in their forums. -- PulseAudio prevents programs relying on ALSA to work correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198453 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
