Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 378081
Gnome fails to detect any sound devices.
Last modified: 2009-01-09 00:10:51 EST
Description of problem: Gnome does not detect any sound devices. It is likely a pure Gnome issue because system-config-soundcard does detect the Creative Labs SB Live! just fine and can produce test sounds with it. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [root@sarmax ~]# rpm -q gnome-audio gnome-audio-2.0.0-4 [root@sarmax ~]# rpm -q system-config-soundcard system-config-soundcard-2.0.6-11.fc8 [root@sarmax ~]# uname -a Linux sarmax 2.6.23.1-42.fc8 #1 SMP Tue Oct 30 13:05:10 EDT 2007 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux [root@sarmax ~]# How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. In Gnome session select System->Preferences->Hardware->Sound and press Test button placed behind "Sound Playback" text; 2. Run system-config-soundcard and press Sound Test button; Actual results: 1. I will get this error message "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Internal GStreamer error: state change failed. Please file a bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer." 2. Guitar will start playing. Expected results: Gnome manager should produce no errors and should be able to play music or whatever sound events. Additional info: If this has anything to do with this issue then this computer has 2 soundcards: [root@sarmax ~]# lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: ALi Corporation M1697 HTT Host Bridge 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation PCI Express Root Port 00:02.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation PCI Express Root Port 00:03.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation PCI Express Root Port 00:04.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation PCI Express Root Port 00:11.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation M5249 HTT to PCI Bridge 00:12.0 Ethernet controller: ALi Corporation ULi 1689,1573 integrated ethernet.

Are there any news about this issue?
What's the output of: ps aux | grep pulse and of: rpm -qa "*gst*" Please make sure your machine is fully updated to the latest Fedora 8.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '8'. 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 8'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 8 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 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 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.
