2008/10/16 Antonio M <antonio.montagnani@xxxxxxxxx>: > 2008/10/16 Christopher Stover <quantumburnz@xxxxxxxxxxx>: >> >> I'm having some really strange sound issues. I use Rhythmbox to listen to mp3s and radio stations. After a while, maybe 20-30 min, the music will just stop. I'll try to play another song or another radio station and I'll hear a second or so of music, then a pause then a split second and nothing else. During this time, the elapsed time for the song stays at 0:00. I've figured out that if I type pulseaudio -k I get the following: >> >> [Chris@localhost ~]$ pulseaudio -k >> I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. >> I: caps.c: Dropping root priviliges. >> I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. >> N: main.c: Called SUID root and real-time/high-priority scheduling was requested in the configuration. However, we lack the necessary priviliges: >> N: main.c: We are not in group 'pulse-rt' and PolicyKit refuse to grant us priviliges. Dropping SUID again. >> N: main.c: For enabling real-time scheduling please acquire the appropriate PolicyKit priviliges, or become a member of 'pulse-rt', or increase the RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits for this user. >> W: main.c: High-priority scheduling enabled in configuration but not allowed by policy. >> >> I then start VLC, play an mp3 and I get all the distorted sound that people have been talking about but it plays. I got this on the command line from VLC which looks pulseaudio related: >> >> I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. >> I: caps.c: Dropping root priviliges. >> I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. >> >> Finally, if I close VLC and open Rhythmbox, I can miraculously listen to the radio and mp3s! >> >> Chris >> >> -- >> fedora-test-list mailing list >> fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx >> To unsubscribe: >> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list >> > > I have exactly same issues....and tnx for the post that clarifies to > me what happens. > The problem is: what is the component to be filed against in > bugzilla??? pulseaudio?? > Furthermore I find that some problem can arise from the fact that > pulseaudio is in rawhide, while most of tools for multimedia (i.e. mp3 > codecs) are out of those boundaries.... > For your information latest kernel (.13) makes a better job about multimedia. > > -- > Antonio Montagnani > Skype : antoniomontag > really funny situation: every time I install a kernel I have to check whether it is doing fine. For example I installed 17 from koij and it is no good, I am experiencing that Rhythmbox is suffering from buffer empty (once again sound too fast??) when playing a radio stream. 16 was doing fine and I will revert to it. -- Antonio Montagnani Sometimes silence is more meaningful than sound....
