I set pulse to not respawn itself. I also installed the jack backend for pulse. When I launch qjackctl i have pulse killed and then restarted using the oulse backend. Then my gnome stuff works again. I am using 11.10. This idea should work with some older versions as well (just as long as you install the pulse backend) Sent from my Samsung smartphone on AT&T Rustom Mody <rustompmody@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >On Sun, Oct 16, 2011 at 7:03 AM, david <gnome@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > >> Jan Depner wrote: >> >>> On Sat, 2011-10-15 at 19:10 +0100, rob wrote: >>> >>>> On 15/10/11 18:49, Ketil Thorgersen wrote: >>>> >>>>> Hi list >>>>> >>>>> I just gave away my UA25 to my son because I had a pci port on a >>>>> computer and this old but capable ice7212 based sound card lying in a >>>>> closet.
