No, it isn't audio failing, it's firefox not completing the connection with 
the server.

No, I'm not using pulseaudio.

I had this problem when I changed firefox to use chrome-binary-plugins.
Are you using pulseaudio?

In my case the plugin was muted, I went into pulse volume control and
found it. (This was after about 20 minutes of scratching my head

[gentoo-user] No audio from Firefox 47.0.1

2016-07-17 Thread Peter Humphrey
Hello list,

Since I upgraded firefox recently I've lost sound from the BBC radio iplayer 
[1]. It loads the initial page but never returns from "Loading..." Remembering 
the news item about libav and ffmpeg I searched for corresponding USE flags 
against firefox but found neither.

Has anyone else come across this? I didn't notice what was happening at first 
because I was tied up in knots with KDE-5. For the moment I'm going back to 
45.2.0.

this didn't fix it either. someone else told me that they need the old
OSS api in the kernel, so I'm gonna try that next :-/

I have not used webex, but my googling seems to indicate the plugin
uses 32-bit libraries and you'll need to run a 32-bit browser in order
for sound to work on linux (or perhaps 64-bit browser using 32-bit
java through nspluginwrapper or something like that).

[gentoo-user] no audio input

2009-08-29 Thread Skippy

Greetings - I've got a new system, fresh install.  Problem I've got in
no audio input from the microphone.  

Trying to record into audacity will not work regardless of which alsa device I 
select, or mic/line in.

If I try to record with rezound I'll get a message saying "static
ASoundRecorder* ASoundRecorder::createInitializedSoundRecorder
(CSound*) -- No audio input method could be initialized"

I can play sound.  Audacity and amarok will play.

I've run alsamixer and kmix to turn up & unmute the microphone.

The hardware works with WindowsXP, this is a dual boot system.

Audio is Intel, on the motherboard.  The board is MSI X58 Platinum
model MS-7522

I'm baffled and more than a little ticked off.  Grrr...  Any
suggestions please?  Thanks.

Well, I have a SoundBlaster card too.  Mine works so let's see if this
will help.  Everything is built into my kernel, no modules.  My lspci
reports this:

Yes, I used lspci. That's how I know what module to
use. Also note kernel version. Definitely not "old

If you mean an error, no. 

Anyway, aren't you talking about the boot console?
I've never seen anything about audio in dmesg, whether
the audio is OK or not.

So, if you mean an error in boot console, no.

With the newer kernels, you don't need to do anything outside the kernel
for Alsa sound most of the time.  Make sure to configure the kernel so
that it has basic sound support enabled (I would compile this into the
kernel, not as a module, but that is me).

Next, on the menu where you choose options, leave OSS unmarked, and
select Alsa support.

On the submenu for Alsa support, select everything that applies (Do
select OSS Emulation, as some packages don't ASK which driver you are
using, they just assume the one they want is there).

If you select extra things here, it won't matter much.  The extra items
are just Midi drivers, and if you don't have Midi hardware, they aren't
an issue either way. ^_^

In other words, on this screen it is safe to select pretty much
everything.

On the screen for PCI drivers, select the option(s) appropriate for your
hardware.

'lspci' should show which sound card your system has.

If you are using devfs, then the device nodes should be created
automatically, if not then I am not sure how to create them manually in
an old style system.  It is possible, that you may need to manually
chmod a+wr the device node in order use them (This is assuming they are
there, which you said they were not I think).

Also dsp, should be /dev/dsp in many cases.  Many of the items you want
will be under /dev directly instead of /dev/sound  These may be links to
the /dev/sound items, but I am not sure. ^^;;  More experienced people
can probably tell you that.
