Please read this: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2009-April/msg02321.html Please try to fix the mixer setup with "alsamixer -c0", then attach the two alsactl outputs, the diffs between them, and the alsa-info.sh output. Created attachment 344462 [details]
alsa-info.txt
Thanks, the last element in alsamixer -- "speaker" -- was the culprit. Somehow it was muted. I'll attach alsa-info.txt. The diff from amixer is quite simple:

Hmm, could you make that diff a bit larger? i.e. diff -N 7 or so, so that we can see which element it is you changed? Will reassign this to alsa-libs now, because this needs fixing in the alsa default mixer initialization db.

Just run 'alsactl init' after installation. Please, confirm. I installed alsa-utils.x86_64 0:1.0.20-3.fc11 and ran 'alsactl init' afterwards as root. I don't know if this was affected by my previous un-muting of the Speaker element, but I now continue to get sound out of my speakers. Thanks. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. 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 prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 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. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 344286 [details] log from pulseaudio -vvvv Description of problem: I get no audio from my laptop (x61)'s speakers. I'm running the latest rawhide (F-11) on x86_64. The headphone jack works. The internal speakers worked in F-10 before I upgraded to rawhide so I'm pretty sure it's not a hardware issue. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Notice audio isn't playing in totem after playing video; pulseaudio -k 2. pulseaudio -vvv 3. Open video in totem Actual results: No audio Expected results: Audio :) Additional info: [vvvvt:~]$ rpm -qa | grep pulse pulseaudio-utils-0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 pulseaudio-0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-x11-0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.18-3.fc11.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs-0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs-glib2-0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-gconf-0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 pulseaudio-module-bluetooth-0.9.15-11.fc11.x86_64 [vvvvt:~]$ ps aux | grep pulse overholt 3090 0.0 0.0 89004 772 pts/0 S+ 13:49 0:00 grep pulse [vvvvt:~]$ pulseaudio -vvvv &> pulse.log [vvvvt:~]$ /sbin/lspci | grep -i audio 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03) Yesterday, I watched an OGG video with audio going out of the headphone jack and it worked fine. Playing audio in rhythmbox shows in the list of applications in Sound Preferences yet I get no audio there, either. Totem shows up in the list, too. All I see in the Output tab of Sound Preferences is "Internal Audio" -- is that may laptop speakers?
