I wanted to check if anyone else is seeing this: I'm running Fedora 11(-to-be) with (as far as I know) the default pulseaudio configuration. Sometimes when I log in -- I'd say over 50% of the time but I'm not sure -- everything basically freezes (mouse moves, menus work, but nothing starts) for over a minute. Then I get a dialogue box titled "Removed Sound Devices" that says: KDE detected that one or more internal sound devices were removed. *Do you want KDE to permanently forget about these devices?* This is the list of devices KDE thinks can be removed: - Output: PulseAudio Sound Server (Sometimes the device is "Capture: Default" instead.) Is this just me? I've realised I've been ignoring it for a while because it only seems to happen on login so I forget about it after that, but it probably does deserve some investigation... -- Mary Ellen Foster -- http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/mef/ ICCS, School of Informatics, University of Edinburgh The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.
