I installed 4.2 from updates-testing. On configuring Multimedia (under Settings) I find: 1) Only audio is configurable, not video. Don't know if that's intentional and for the moment it doesn't matter. 2) The various audio categories all show the following list of devices: HDA Intel (STAC92xx Analog) default (lower-case 'd') hw:0,0 Default (upper-case 'D') PulseAudio Sound Server <nothing> (i.e. an icon with no text) 3) Despite repeated attempts to push the PA option into first place, as soon as I close the dialogue it goes back to where it was. 4) The Test button sometimes works, but usually just quits the Settings dialogue, with no error message. It doesn't seem to depend on which device one is trying to test. 5) Music works via Amarok. Videos played with vlc or kaffeine are silent. This used to work with 4.1.4. 6) (This is actually an old complaint, but what the hell): I can't seem to get the Kmix 'loudspeaker' icon to appear. Instead, I get a thing that looks like a sheet of paper tilted at an angle and with some indecipherable blue stuff on it. This has been happening for years, but I just thought I'd mention it :-) poc
