what happens if you try to play something with mplayer - can you please reboot to get a clean setup, run 'mplayer somefile', and paste all the console output you get?
Here is mplayer -msglevel all=6 file.wav http://fpaste.org/paste/10555
I see you have it configured to prefer the SDL audio output, can you try again with: mplayer -ao pulse file.wav and paste that? Thanks. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
I noticed that I tested alsamixer as root, so he could not connect. When I try to run it as user, it works. But I see fewer options then on 2.6.27 kernels. I made a screenshot of KMix, you can notice that PCM volume control is missing. http://imagebin.ca/view/SkRHJAn.html Here it is mplayer, with pulse: MPlayer SVN-r28461-4.3.2 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU P7350 @ 2.00GHz (Family: 6, Model: 23, Stepping: 6) mplayer: could not connect to socket mplayer: No such file or directory Failed to open LIRC support.

this is looking more like an actual ALSA bug than anything to do with Pulse and volume controls. but, can you post a screenshot of alsamixer instead? I can't read kmix.
Hi, I tested the alsamixer, but nothing special there. Card: PulseAudio Chip: PulseAudio View: Playback [Capture] All Item: Capture And I setup sound to 80-100%.
sorry, you need to do 'alsamixer -c0' to see the card's controls rather than the pulse 'card'.

Created attachment 342205 [details] alsa mixer screen [All] I tested also headphones and there is no sound from them too.
OK, so PCM is there and set to a decent value. If you go over to the two elements just labelled "Digital" with "Digital" above them in yellow text, then press up and down to scroll through the choices (they look like list-style elements), what are the choices? What is the full name of those two elements (it'll be displayed in the Item: field at the top of alsamixer, when they're highlighted)? sorry for this painful process, I'm just trying to identify the problem exactly...
Analog Inputs, Mixer, Digital Mic 1, Digital Mic 2 Anyway I resolved it half-way finally. In KMix [1] there is Analog Loopback and Analog Loopback 2. If I mute these two options, I have sound back! You can see on the picture just one Analog Loopback muted. So when I mute them both I have sound :) It is weird, but it somehow works now. [1] http://imagebin.ca/view/SkRHJAn.html
Looks like a bad ALSA default, then. Assigning. Thanks.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. 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 '10'. 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 10'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 10 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 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 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.
