Ubuntu 9.10 = 8 hours of fixing sound

AimMe · **Posted:** 10.31.09

Well, today i switched to ubuntu 9.10. I was all fine until i tried mumble with urt. Sound in mumble ok, urt no sound.... Well, to shorten story, after 4-5 hours of searching forums, installing, compiling and removing, i realized (with natirips' help) that i have to do only few clicks.

!slap AimMe 25

And i noticed one thing:

Code:

yasha@yasha-desktop:~$ pulseaudio --dump-conf
### Read from configuration file: /etc/pulse/daemon.conf ###
daemonize = no
&#91;b&#93;fail = yes&#91;/b&#93;
high-priority = yes
nice-level = -11
realtime-scheduling = yes
realtime-priority = 5
allow-module-loading = yes
allow-exit = yes
use-pid-file = yes
system-instance = no
cpu-limit = no
enable-shm = yes
flat-volumes = no
lock-memory = no
exit-idle-time = 20
scache-idle-time = 20
dl-search-path = /usr/lib/pulse-0.9.19/modules
default-script-file = /etc/pulse/default.pa
load-default-script-file = yes
log-target = auto
log-level = notice
resample-method = speex-float-1
enable-remixing = yes
enable-lfe-remixing = no
default-sample-format = s16le
default-sample-rate = 44100
default-sample-channels = 2
default-channel-map = front-left,front-right
default-fragments = 8
default-fragment-size-msec = 10
shm-size-bytes = 0
log-meta = no
log-time = no
log-backtrace = 0
rlimit-fsize = -1
rlimit-data = -1
rlimit-stack = -1
rlimit-core = -1
rlimit-rss = -1
rlimit-as = -1
rlimit-nproc = -1
rlimit-nofile = 256
rlimit-memlock = -1
rlimit-locks = -1
rlimit-sigpending = -1
rlimit-msgqueue = -1
rlimit-nice = 31
rlimit-rtprio = 9
rlimit-rttime = 1000000
 

It's supposed to be like that, but looks funny

Back to frag!

He (and me too) uses OSS4 for optimal sound. Ubuntu uses libsdl1.2debian-alsa, but for OSS4 (like every other OSS) you need to

Code:

sudo apt-get remove libsdl1.2debian-alsa; sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian-oss

At least my version, your might use another number instead of 1.2 . Check with synaptic or something.

Yep. First i switched to oss4 (had to compile it) and then install libsdl1.2debian-oss (it will ask you to remove libsdl1.2debian-alsa) and that's it.

BTW: in firts post, should've been bold:
fail = yes

I also have that setting:

Code:

natirips@nati-lap:~$ pulseaudio --dump-conf | grep fail
---- snip ----
fail = yes
natirips@nati-lap:~$

But it works none the less if OSS is not using the sound card at the moment.
