Normally PA should remember this. Maybe you are killing PA on session logout without letting it store its settings first? Is this GNOME? Is module-x11-xsmp poperly loaded? pulseaudio-0.9.10-1.fc9.i386
pavucontrol-0.9.6-1.fc9.i386
It doesn't look like I have module-x11-xsmp loaded:
>pactl list | grep x11
Name: module-x11-publish
I'm not killing anything manually before logging out...
Once I've moved an application's streams over by right-clicking the stream and
assigning a new output device, that setting is remembered across logout/login or
reboot. However, new applications that have never before played still default
to the wrong device.
Also, pavucontrol still has "Default" checked for "ALSA PCM on front:1 (Intel
ICH7) via DMA" on the "Output Devices" tab when I right click it. If I
right-click "ALSA PCM on front:0 (ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback) via DMA"
and select "Default" this setting isn't remembered across logout/login.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping What are you starting PA from? KDE? I think the KDE guys don't set up module-x11-xsmp up properly, as it isn't shown in your dump. Please file a bug for them, if you really do use KDE. In GNOME make sure to enable the ESD checkbox to start PA on session login. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 448477 *** Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner on this. I'm not running KDE, I'm using GNOME. So this isn't an exact duplicate... I'm not sure why module-x11-xsmp isn't running. My home directory has been around with GNOME settings for many releases as the system has been upgraded or reinstalled, so perhaps something in my .gconf* settings is messed up? How do I load the module manually? Ok, I figured out how to load the module, but it fails: >pactl load-module module-x11-xsmp Failure: Module initalization failed >locate module-x11-xsmp /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/module-x11-xsmp.so >rpm -qf /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/module-x11-xsmp.so pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.10-1.fc9.i386 >rpm -q pulseaudio pavucontrol pulseaudio-0.9.10-1.fc9.i386 pavucontrol-0.9.6-1.fc9.i386 Reopening then. I am pretty sure that this is fixed in F10. Feel free to reopen if this problem persists. |
