Comment 2 Ronald 2007-10-23 20:38:37 UTC
It does not work with the older kernel either (which did work before). I assume
that alsa was updated while I was installing my computer through kickstart.

Comment 3 Chuck Ebbert 2007-10-23 20:42:07 UTC
Probably caused by pulseaudio. There wre no kernel sound updates.

Try removing these packages, then rebooting:

 pulseaudio
 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio



Comment 4 Ronald 2007-10-24 15:30:00 UTC
I did a fresh reinstall of the system. Issue fixed. You could be right, I was
testing some different media players. I installed Xine and Rythmbox. But that's
it... After I reinstalled the system, everything works again... weird. Do you
want to try to reproduce this?

Comment 5 Hans de Goede 2008-01-14 08:41:28 UTC
Short intro: I'm a Fedora contributer doing some kernel bug triaging.

Closing since this was fixed by a reinstall. Things like this happen with
rawhide, esp. with the move to pulseaudio no need to reproduce.
