Hello everyone,
I am new to the world of OpenIndiana. I've enjoyed it for the most part
so far, but have had a couple problems. The most frustrating of which is
the lack of audio output on my ThinkPad W541. There is no playback from
the laptop speakers or any output through the headphone port, no matter
what I do or the volume settings.
The only time I have got sound to play is while attempting to diagnose
the issue using the "audiotest" command.
After running 'audioctl list-devices', I got audiohd#0 and audiohd#1.
While running 'audiotest,' nothing played under audiohd#0 and it took a
long time for the test to conclude. Sound did play through the headphone
port using audiohd#1, and the test concluded as it should. However,
after the test concluded, I still have no audio from anything.
Also, when I get audio working, is there a software package that will
allow me to playback MP3, WAV, Ogg/Vorbis or AU formats? I looked for
VLC Media Player and ffmpeg on the package repository but didn't see
anything. I have been using TiMidity++ to play and convert MIDI files
(which I can only listen to on another computer), but would like to have
greater audio playback capabilities if possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
