Have you submitted a bug report? Most problems with PulseAudio, according to the developers, are actually bugs in the underlying Alsa drivers. Given that it's an old audio chip, I wouldn't be surprised to find that it's the driver. If you want to adjust the configuration settings in ~/.pulse have a read of the pacmd and pactl manual pages. _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
