Hi, just a quick question. I also have a problem with audio. Is this problem related to "fwupd and audio"? When starting "VLC Media Player" I get error: ============== Audio output failed: The audio device "default" could not be used: Connection refused. ==============
looking into "System Setting" | Sound and on Ouput and Input there are no devices specified and on "Sound Effects" there is only "default". I know this was working before seeing the devices here. The "default" from VLC error is probably the "default" from "Sound Effects". I was searching the web and found this "USB audio device is not recognized after startup in 16.04" with URL: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fwupd/+bug/1574079 and there is reference to "fwupd" and gnome-software. What I am wondering maybe there is common cause for my problem "gnome- sofware" endless spinning (current bug report) and VLC/audio problem. Looks like there were some fixed developed and are currently in "proposed" repository. What do you think? Are this problems related? P.S. I have also posted a question on Lenovo forum, to see if someone knows how to disable (if possible) figerprint device in BIOS: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-T61-and-prior-T-series/How-to- disable-Figerprint-Reader-in-BIOS-or-in-Ubuntu-16-04/td-p/3353318 Regards -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1589585 Title: Ubuntu Software tab Installed refreshing endlessly every 2 seconds Status in fwupd package in Ubuntu: New Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have fresh installed Ubuntu 16.04 Desktop 32-bit. After each install for years one of the first thing I do is uninstall some of the applications that I don't need to preserve some downloading/installing of applications that I don't need. I opened Ubuntu Software, click on Installed tab and now the problem appears. Every two seconds whole screen gets to gray and refreshing appears which takes 2 seconds. This loops endlessly. It is very frustrating, because Ubuntu Software is unusable in my case. I have asked the question on forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2326701&p=13498876 and one of suggestion was to remove the software and install it back. I did: sudo apt install gnome-software sudo apt purge gnome-software sudo apt autoremove sudo apt autoclean sudo apt install gnome-software Started Ubuntu Software and the problem remains the same. P.S. New problem appeared now Ubuntu Software icon on Launcher is not the same (orange color), but it has changed (white color). But this is not huge problem, just annoyance.
