I don't understand why it doesn't autostart. You should probably file a bug about this. In the meantime try adding pulseaudio to your user-specific autostart directory and see if that makes it go: mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart cp /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop ~/.config/autostart/ > Sorry, I did not include the whole output of pacmd here it is : > [snipped output] For starters, both your regular audio and HDMI audio devices are suspended. That might be related to the fact that PulseAudio is starting late; something else might be locking the ALSA device. You can try to un-suspend your audio devices by running: pacmd suspend false If that gives you some sort of error, you probably have to fix pulseaudio autostarting first. Now, lets forcibly play some sound through your HDMI audio. If you have amarok installed, this will work, or you can point it to any OGG or WAV audio file (there are a bunch in /usr/share/sounds): pacmd play-file /usr/share/kde4/apps/amarok/data/first_run_jingle.ogg 0 If that works, try playing some sound in a normal application and see if your HDMI audio works then too. If that doesn't work, change the 0 at the end of that command to a 1 and run it again. If sound comes out of your laptop's internal speakers, PulseAudio is working and it's just an HDMI problem. If no sound comes out of them, something is wrong with PulseAudio in general (or possibly the file you tried to play doesn't exist or work). If you haven't sorted out the autostarting yet, that's probably related. -T.C. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
