My most fun with pulse was a few months ago when sound suddenly stopped working on a random subset of applications. I eventually discovered that for (as yet undetermined reasons) pulse had decided to send the sound from some apps to different sound devices than the default (hdmi) I had set. My motherboard looks to the OS like it has two sound "cards". After setting the profile for the 2nd card to "none" pulse finally started sending everything to the hdmi port again. I don't know if some lunatic decided to implement "load balancing" among multiple sound cards or it was just a wild bug of some kind that came in some update, but it was very mysterious for a while. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
