I installed it about a week or two ago, but had no speakers connected at the time. These are the currently installed kernels, I haven't tried sound with the older one, yet: [tim@troubled ~]$ rpm -q kernel kernel-3.11.10-301.fc20.i686 kernel-3.13.10-200.fc20.i686 I have sound, but it's too quiet - it's down by about 15dB, according to my sound mixer (a real audio mixer, that my computer is patched into), from where I expect it to be (based on prior experience). And my cabling is fine (my background is in electronics engineering, I have thoroughly checked the cabling and equipment). The pulseaudio metering is also showing very low, for audio sources that I know have plenty of signal strength. Running the computer's audio mixer levels into the overdrive range only manages to bring audio levels up by a small amount - normally you'd get horrid distortions as you go just a bit above 100%. I did have one application play at proper levels, once, but everything else is running low. The alsamixer levels have been turned up to full, as well as the pulseaudio controls (master levels, front speaker levels, headphone levels, and PCM/wave output). There does seem to be some software bugs, you seem to be suffering worse than I am, though. -- tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.13.10-200.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Mon Apr 14 21:00:56 UTC 2014 i686 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
