KDE certainly uses a sound daemon called arts. I haven't got the foggiest about how to kill it and use anything else. And I am not really interested. I may be a little rough here, but with KDE being one of the two major desktops in Debian GNU/Linux, I certainly expect the sound system to work with arts. It did so until yesterday! And arts hasn't been upgraded. Not saying that I am unwilling to assist in hunting down the bug. I just don't feel very competent - I will need a lot of assistance. best regards -- Peder Chr.

Try to kill the daemon (I think can be done in the kcc) and use jack or pure alsa then. Enjoy Elimar -- Numeric stability is probably not all that important when you're guessing;-)
Bug#364583: No more sound - me too.
I had the same reaction after my dist-upgrade of unstable as of today (April 24th). No sound. I use aumix to adjust the mixer (I don't know about alsamixer). All my settings are zeroed; but contrary to what the original submitter of this TR observes, using aumix to adjust the settings to something normal does not help - I *still* have no sound, and the settings do not survive reboot. There is nothing wrong with the driver load and "udev" setup of devices - it works as always. But I fear that the problem may not be exclusively related to ALSA. I downgraded all the alsa packages alsa-base_1.0.11-1_all.deb libasound2-dev_1.0.11-2_i386.deb libasound2_1.0.11-2_i386.deb alsa-utils_1.0.11-1_i386.deb libasound2-doc_1.0.11-2_all.deb linux-sound-base_1.0.11-1_all.deb to the 1.0.10 versions. Now my mixer settings survive reboot - as before. But still I have no sound! I suspect that there may be problems with sound in the KDE upgrade that also arrived today: 3.5.2-1 to 3.5.2-2. I haven't yet tried to back out that upgrade (it is pretty big!). For the record, my sound is built-in on an AsRock K7S8X, version 3.0 motherboard; it uses (according to lspci) SiS sound controller. My kernel is the current unstable Debian 2.6.16 (2.6.16-9). Honestly, I consider upgrading the level of this TR to something release-critical. You know, an upgrade of the sound system, and now I have no sound best regard -- Peder Chr.
