Fwiw, fedora should be defaulting to using pulseaudio everywhere (well, if you have kde-settings-pulseaudio installed anyway). If it doesn't, then that's a bug we need to fix. Using fallback backends is a phonon feature, but the (sometimes needless) warnings seem a bit overkill to me too. Is this still an issue to be concerned about? Closing this as NOTABUG. Feel free to reopen if you feel this was closed in error. |

They both say The audio playback device ESS Maestro3 PCI (Maestro3) does not work. Falling back to PulseAudio. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): I can't find it How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run preupgrade to upgrade from Fedora 8 to Fedora 9 2. Sort out the mess. 3. Install kde-settings-pulseaudio so you can hear sounds from notifications (the KDE startup and shutdown sounds work!). 4. Hibernate. Actual Results: The windows on my screen. Expected Results: Phonon (what ever package it comes from) should have determined that if it has a problem using a hardware device, then it might not be appropriate to switch to a sound server using that device (Maestro3 is the only sound device on my machine).
