[SOLVED] Problems with PulseAudio 3.0

(1/10) > >>

agmg:
Since the upgrade to PulseAudio 3.0, I have no sound in my laptop's speakers.

If I plug in my headphones, I have sound.
If I send the audio stream to HDMI, I have sound.
The problem is with the speakers.

Things I've tried so far:
- Completely removed all pulseaudio related packages, back to ALSA, sound from speakers is back.
- Reinstalled pulseaudio, same result.
- Uninstalled again, removed all folders related to pulseaudio and installed again, still no luck.
- Tried with different kernel, no change.

Tried running alsaconf as root. Found two soundcards.

First: snd-hda-intel (Intel Corporation 82801H - ICH9 Family - HD Audio Controller)
Second: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV710/730 HDMI Audio

Got this message:


--- Code: ---WARNING: Module snd_mixer_oss already in kernel.
 snd_hda_intel snd_hda_intel.                                                                                             [ΕΝΤΑΞΕΙ]

Setting default volumes...
ALSA lib pulse.c:243:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect: Connection refused

amixer: Mixer attach default error: Connection refused
--- End code ---

Everytime I installed pulseaudio I went to PCC to enable it and checked after reboot that it was still enabled.
It is enabled but it seems that it when I select Analog Output, it always sends the audio stream to headphones only.

Old-Polack:
I hate to state the obvious, but are the speakers turned on?

I bumped mine a few days ago, plugging in the scanner, and hit the on/off switch. An hour later... I figured out what the problem was.  :o

Just17:
Is there a selection option on the PA Output Devices tab to select between speakers and headphones?

What happens if you turn off the HDMI device on the PA Config tab?

It's a laptop, so there is no on/off switch...

There are two options: Analog Output and Headphones. Analog Output is selected. No change if I turn off the HDMI output...





My lspci output in case it's needed:

Like I said, sound seems to be playing normal and going to Analog Output but only headphones are heard.
Seems like the system mutes the speakers...

Just17:
Can you add a pic of the Output Devices Tab of PA Vol Ctrl?
