doing pacman -Q pulseaudio does yield results I can't remove it though since it is required by pulseaudio-alsa and gnome-settings-daemon. Pressing control-alt-f3 does the same... espeakup does not talk. So I'm not sure how to fix this. My bbrother uwses gnome since he needs a magnifier. alonzo On Mon, Jul 29, 2013 at 04:10:47PM -0400, Kyle wrote: > Yes, the package is called pulseaudio.
