In fact, in desperation I've installed anything pulse I could find out there: [root@dimi ~]# yum list '*pulse*' Installed Packages alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i386 1.0.15-2.fc8 installed pulseaudio.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-core-libs.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-esound-compat.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-libs.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-libs-glib2.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-libs-zeroconf.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-module-bluetooth.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-module-gconf.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-module-jack.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-module-lirc.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-module-x11.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-module-zeroconf.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed pulseaudio-utils.i386 0.9.8-5.fc8 installed But as I explained, the gstreamer plugin for PA would just output the sound to my USB headphones, not the system speakers. > > * if output is set to ALSA:hw:1,0 it will go to the system > speakers > > 1) Is the ALSA Pulseaudio plugin installed?

It wasn't installed on my system, I installed anything and everything I could find with 'pulse' in name, no luck. Google, etc, now I discovered that it's in a package called pavucontrol. Really nice name. How could mere mortals figure this one out?

Maybe, but hacking pulseaudio on the command line is not something that pops into my mind, I'll admit. -- Dimi Paun <dimi@xxxxxxxxxxx> Lattica, Inc. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
