pulseaudio + alsa?

view story

https://bbs.archlinux.org – Pulseaudio-alsa is basically a config file to make programs outputting to ALSA use pulseaudio instead. So having pulseaudio-alsa without pulseaudio does not make much sense mariusmeyer https://bbs.archlinux.org/profile.php?id=25244 2012-08-02T16:13:53Z (HowTos)

Hi. I wrote some time ago about my problems with sound in PulseAudio. I decited to remove it, and use only ALSA like I was few months ago (I think). Currently in alsamixer I have only "PulseAudio" master volume, before that I had more sliders. But... how to remove PulseAudio? Pacman says, that gnome-settings-daemon depends on pulseaudio. How can I disable it?

Most everything works great on my samsung chronos 7 with f17 including led brightness, keyboard brightness, wifi, etc.

I've been thinking for a while about switching pulseaudio for alsa because pulseaudio is pure crap, but get this. My father told me, "Never ever switch out the most mature sound driver Linux has which is pulseaudio for some cheap not-so-stable knock-off called alsa." :blink::doh: I mean why would anyone think that PulseAudio is stable. It's real crap.

no sound... 22 weeks 1 day ago

I'm pretty sure anonymus_user is right. But pulseaudio is not hard. At all.

Hello,since a few weeks my sound volume on Arch is very low but for me it became conscious now. The audio volume is at least half of standard ALSA, possible only a third. When I remove pulseaudio and pulseaudio-alsa and restart the system the volume is right. I use KDE SC 4.8.3 and PulseAudio 2.0 on Linux 3.3.6-1 but I can't say to you when the problem has occurred.

no inbuild micro on xps 1530 3 years 28 weeks ago

Hi,

i've just installed opensuse 11.2 (Gnome) on my Dell xps1530 and everything works well, i'm very happy BUT inbuild microphone doesn't want to work! It's the only bug,not so bad ;-)) but i need it...

Here's my infos: alsa-info.sh

Make mpd output to Pulseaudio, not ALSA and it should work.

I tried maybe removing alsa-utils and then installing it back again. Something else may be causing it... should I just delete my ~/.asoundrc?
