Joe this is OT for LTSP, but pulse greatly complicates (and smoothes) the whole sound issue. I've found that I needed to run both pavucontrol and gnome- volume-control (side-by-side) to address all the issues I had. The SERVER and the CLIENT are ***THE SAME MACHINE*** and the pulse settings need to be tailored to the site. Default and Fallback are not obvious see http://pulseaudio.org/ !!! IE appA learns to use the fallback device it will continue to use that device, default notwithstanding IE there is lots of google stuff about the beta (pulse) skype ring on speakers and talk on headset. It is easy to *teach* it to do this. james ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
