I thought it was the manager that allowed me to turn devices off in pulseaudio. It was the PulseAudio Volume Control. Applications -> Sound and Video -> PulseAudio Volume Control First select the Output Devices tab and make sure the drop down in the lower right corner is set to All output devices. Then select the Configuration tab. If you right click on the device you want Pulse to ignore, at the bottom of the menu is an off selection. Pulse won't know about that device if you turn it off. If you want to have pulse replace the default device in alsa you can do some scripting in .asoundrc to make it happen (I won't go into it here), or you can make sure that the device you want pulse to ignore is device 1. The default device in alsa is always device 0 unless you script it differently. In this case, pulse will use device 0 to play and you can play using alsa with device 1. But it sounds like you have another problem. That all your sound devices aren't being recognized. Run the script at the link below. It will put a text file in /tmp/alsa-info.txt with information about your system. If the card you want isn't in that file that means it is not recognized by alsa and you will not be able to use it. If it is a plug in card, remove it and plug it back in just before you run the script. http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-driver.git;a=blob_plain;f=utils/alsa-info.sh -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
