I've tried to set up the things you suggested, but everything remained the same. I've tried it using blackbox instead of kde, and checked that artsd not running, but sill heard no sound from flash anims, though xmms and mplayer had sound. So I think it is not only kde problem. I also tried it from konqueror and firefox, with the same result. Istvan -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
