I don't recall seeing any mention of your system's sound capabilities. In my case of I have 2 potential sound outputs one is a built-in "Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio" while the other is "Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GK106 HDMI Audio Controller" located on my Graphics card...which is disconnected. I use KDE. As such, to ensure I get sound under KDE I would have to bring up "systemsettings" go to "Multimedia--->Audio and Video Settings and ensure that "Built-in Audio Analog Stereo" is at the top of the preference list for the playback. If HDMI is at the top, no sound....of course. -- Getting tired of non-Fedora discussions and self-serving posts -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
