alsa-info

Description of problem:

After upgrade from F18 to F20 with fedup, I have no more sound in the system. Kmix shows that there is a sound card but no sound is heard.

I join the output of alsa-info if this helps.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Nom                 : alsa-firmware
Architecture        : noarch
Version             : 1.0.27
Révision            : 2.fc20


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open a mp3 file with vlc or dragon player
2. click on play
3. no sound is heard but the program seems to read the file normally.

Try to correct the output settings in 'pavucontrol' - the Pulseaudio tool.

Comment 2 Frédéric 2014-01-28 21:18:28 UTC
I do not see anything wrong in pavucontrol (see attached screen capture).

pavucontrol

screen casts of pavucontrol

Comment 4 Frédéric 2014-01-29 06:08:12 UTC
for some reason the sound has come back!
What I did, in case some of these actions worked:
1. installed pavucontrol, launched it, muted/umuted the sound
2. right click on the KDE sound icon, click on Restore.

Don't know what worked. Nevertheless, thanks for the indications.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 10:42:44 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-29 14:49:07 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
