[pulseaudio-discuss] TeamSpeak 3

2009-12-24 Thread Vadim Peretokin
Since the discussion focus has turned to providing solutions for problems,
I'm wondering if the collective mind can figure out as to why doesn't the
new teamspeak 3 client does not work in certain cases. The use case here is
ubuntu kk, pa 0.9.19.

Just playing a test sound will make it a) be choppy and b) cause ts3 client
to lock up using all cpu shortly after that. I suspect it's related to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-plugins/+bug/485488 which
hasn't gotten all that much attention but makes gaming a sad experience.

Here's a short video of how it breaks down (oh you can't hear the test
sound, it's in the headphones and I don't know how to re-route output to
input graphically):

Any ideas?

Re: [pulseaudio-discuss] Pulseaudio in general - does it make sense?

Everyone has their viewpoint.

Gaming in Ubuntu Karmic is quite an unpleasant experience due to the
ALSA-PA plugin making games die / have really stuttering sound. Nobody
cares about it atm until after the holidays, so I'm still waiting on that
for a resolution...

I have a USB headset, and no, the first time plugged in PA did nothing. I
had to manually change the input and output streams to the USB headset to
make my apps work. Worse than that, I'm not able to specify a default one -
so for every new app, I have to set it to my headset. To make matters more
fun, PA will reset (at some condition which I don't agree with and doesn't
help my use case) to my onboard sound card.

Oh and the new teamspeak 3 that just came out completely fails to work on
ubuntu karmic. Just hogs all CPU and dies when you try to record any sound
in it.

But hey, on the bright side, recordmydesktop doesn't bork out with someone
is already using the sound card problem.

Re: [pulseaudio-discuss] Why no 'default device' option?

Not always. It'll randomly forget what goes where. Takes me a moment of
confusion after making sure sound isn't muted to realize...

The thing is that I never move them back. I'm always moving them to my USB
headset.

[pulseaudio-discuss] Why no 'default device' option?

2009-11-25 Thread Vadim Peretokin
It's great that *pavucontrol* offers a fallback device option. But why
doesn't it offer one for selecting which device would you like to be
default?

My use case: I'm on a laptop and have a wireless usb headset. I prefer that
everything is played/recorded via the headset, when the headset is connected
to the laptop.

Currently with PulseAudio, every new app that I start will use the onboard
sound card. I have to manually go to pavucontrol, and change the streams to
my headset. PA will also, at some point later in time, randomly forget that
and reset back to the soundcard, but I haven't found the reliable pattern
for that to report it.

Definitely... now that you've explained it to me, the pavucontrol UI
communicates it's message quite poorly.

Thanks for the tip
