Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. insert CD in system with VIA8235 AC97 sound chip and FC4 that was upgraded from FC3 (when CD's played. 2. Try to play audio CD 3. AUIDO CD test fails. 4. 2. 3. Actual results: CD does not play in CD rom DRIVE CDPLAYER SHOWS CD being there but does not play. CD sits there. Expected results: CD;s should play with no problem. All I did was upgrade to FC4 from FC3 Additional info: CD's played with no problem under FC3. I upgrade to FC4 and no audio CD will play. I can however use the gnome program sound juicer to "rip" tracks of a CD. Since the only thing that changed on my system is the upgrade to FC4 from FC3 therefore I can assume that something is wrong with either the Gnome Volume control or some other setting. The fact that Sound juicer can rip tracks proves that there is nothing wrong with my CD drive. Something is not right with the VIA 8235 ALSA mixer.
Hi, In the past I have not installed the KDE desktop because I usually prefer GNOME. However, as part of my own effort to solve this problem I did a yum groupinstall KDE. Under KDE Audio CD's play with no issues or problems. Therefore, something is wrong under GNOME. All things remaining equal I would expect the same functionality under GNOME in FC4 that I had in FC3.
I'm having a similar problem with my new Gateway 7426. The driver test works ( bling-->, <--bling, BLING), but music player (xmms?) and the CDPlayer fail. FC3_x64 didn't play, now FC4 (32bit) doesn't either. The audio is supposed to be 97 compaitble. ??
Barrett Koster, Thank you for adding to my bug report. now I know that I am not the only one experiencing this issue. Here is my interim solution. I loaded KDE. I placed a shortcut to the Kscd player on my desktop. So, now when I want to play a CD while in GNOME I use the shortcut for the KDE KsCD player. You should also be visiting www.fedoraforum.org This site is a treasure trove of help.
More info: yum update of minutes ago doesn't fix it. Trying to play song in Music Player (Rythmbox 0.8.8) causes error: Internal GStreamer error: pad problem. File a bug. Here you go.
Yes, gnome-cd does not play under FC4 ... whenever I press 'play' it says: (gnome-cd:10241): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_pad_send_event: assertion `GST_STATE (parent) >= GST_STATE_PAUSED' failed in fact I'm using xmms to play CDs and not using rhythmbox (broken) or any gstreamer-related app but cannot uninstall it because of dependancies.
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd. Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and either update the target product or close it ? Thanks.
