SOLVED: Re: Anybody got Google Meet going on Linux (Fedora) with just ALSA (ie not with PulseAudio)?

People,

I eventually narrowed down what the problem was:

- a new test user on the same workstation worked fine

- a different profile (attached to the non-working user) worked fine

- using the Chrome reset account facility fixed the problem

- reinstalling some Chrome extensions caused the problem again

I have narrowed it down to either a YouTube video speed controller or an extension for preventing automatic playing of YT videos . . somehow one or other of these extensions, for Google Meet and Jitsi prevents the speakers from working at all and the mic needs to be changed from Default to Analog . . weird . .

So now I have work-arounds anyway . . a somewhat interesting exercise I guess . .

Thanks,

Phil.

People,

I am not sure what is going on - I seem to have had increased sound
problems on recent versions of Fedora (30-31).  I have been routinely
uninstalling PA for some years and haven't had more than the usual
number of problems with audio in that time.  Currently:

alsa-lib-1.2.1.2-4.fc31.i686
alsa-lib-1.2.1.2-4.fc31.x86_64
alsa-ucm-1.2.1.2-4.fc31.noarch
alsa-utils-1.2.1-3.fc31.x86_64
alsamixergui-0.9.0-0.29.rc2.fc31.x86_64
qemu-audio-alsa-4.1.1-1.fc31.x86_64
wine-alsa-5.0-1.fc31.i686
wine-alsa-5.0-1.fc31.x86_64

If I use the analog rear mic instead of "Default" on GoogleMeet people
can hear me but I can't hear them - but the "Speakers" option can't be
changed from "Default".

Playing YT videos is fine and I can record from my mic here:

Any suggestions about debugging would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Phil.
