Description Santiago Erquicia 2004-04-01 21:04:27 UTC
Description of problem:
gnome volume control shows two devices for my ali5451 sound card.  One
says something about OSS and the other about alsa

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-panel-2.6.0-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the gnome volume control
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Two tabs are shown

Expected results:
Only one tab should be shown

Additional info:
Is this because you set OSS compatibility when loading alsa?

Comment 1 Mike Becker 2004-04-24 23:47:25 UTC
I have the same problem with two mixers being displayed, ALSA Mixer
and OSS Mixer, in Fedora Core 2 Test 3.  When I first login the login
sound file is heard but after than, no sound at all.  

Too, the problem as described in bug #121376, the volume-applet slider
decrements step-by-step, all on it's own...

FYI - sound plays quite well in KDE but Gnome is my favored desktop.

Comment 2 Mike Becker 2004-04-25 00:30:13 UTC
Next time I will double-check things before I say anything -- I no
longer have any sound working in KDE either!!!  Everything looks
normal, Kmix shows I should have sound at my disposal, but nothing is
heard....

Comment 3 Joseph Kelch 2004-05-03 19:04:32 UTC
Also see this on FC 2 test 3 with a Soundblaster Live 5.1.  If I grab 
a slider from one and move it, I get the appropriate sound, but if I 
just set one and then go to the other and click on a slider, sound 
goes off.  For now I have muted the OSS master volume and I'm using 
the alsa controls only, though I am not getting any sound from my 
rear satellites when playing CD's, though I do get sound in Windows.

Comment 4 Adam Bowns 2004-05-20 20:53:00 UTC
I have the same problem (including the volume decrement) with FC2
final. I'd be happy to give any more assistance if someone needs to
work with a machine that can reproduce this problem.

Comment 5 Chris Petersen 2004-05-29 18:21:28 UTC
My bug sounds related to this, so I'll post here instead of creating a
new bug.  Basically, I have both OSS and ALSA tabs in gnome-volume
control (fc2 final), and my volume settings (gnome) are not sticking
between sessions -- it always comes up with the PCM volume at zero). 
It saved once when I checked "save session" (I don't do this often -
like to have a standard "startup state" for my sessions, regardless of
what I was doing the night before), but the next reboot after that the
volume was back to zero again.

Comment 6 Mark McLoughlin 2004-07-21 14:35:36 UTC
Volume decrement problem is in bug #121376.

This bug should be against gnome-volume-control in gnome-media

Comment 7 Bastien Nocera 2004-07-21 14:48:23 UTC
Which devices are shown exactly?
Could the original reporter please post a screenshot of the
gnome-volume-control? Could you also attach the output of lsmod, as
well as the modules.conf (or modprobe.conf for FC2 and above)?

Comment 8 Santiago Erquicia 2004-07-21 18:17:14 UTC
Created attachment 102114 [details]
Screenshot of gnome volume control

It looks like it shows the ALSA and OSS setup.	Maybe it is that I have the OSS
setup just to be compatible with olther programs

Comment 9 Santiago Erquicia 2004-07-21 18:18:46 UTC
Output of lsmod.  This is under Fedora Core 2 final as well as the
screenshot.
