I made the "mistake," last night, of powering off with the sound muted. For reasons that I will NEVER understand PA decides to select the next sound device if the first one is muted. That would be the HDMI output (from the same sound card). The analog output is then not an option under hardware settings. Usually, I can straighten this out with a pulseaudio --kill && pulseaudio -D. Now, however, these commands reset the audio back to the remembered state (muted) and, although the analog output device is now available, it refuses to produce any sound. PA is profoundly confused by muting. To add insult to injury, just examining the hardware requires the additional "apply" click when nothing has changed; it's just one further nuisance. A reboot sends the sound back to muted no matter how I set the mixer before rebooting. This is all EXTREMELY f*cking frustrating. WHEN will developers finally accept the FACT that PA has been a problem since it was first introduced? For years I could harmlessly remove the damned thing but that is no longer really an option. -- 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?
