Description Todd 2011-10-01 01:41:07 UTC 
Hi Guys,

I am coming from the "Community": Scientific Linux 6.1 x64.  

$ rpm -q -f gnome-volume-control
gnome-media-2.29.91-6.el6.x86_64

When firing up gnome-volume-control, a pop up gives the following error:

         "waiting for sound system to respond" 

This is caused by two missing dependancies in the RPM:

     pulseaudio-0.9.21-13.el6.x86_64.rpm
     rtkit-0.5-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

Which does fix the problem.

Would you fix these missing dependancies in the RPM to keep the next guy from tearing his hair out?

Many thanks,
-T

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

Comment 4 Phil Wyett 2014-07-08 05:15:02 UTC 
Can the reporter indicate if this issue still exists for them?

I have tried to reproduce under SL 6.5 and CentOS 6.5 without success.

I am no longer having the problem either.  Thank you!
