[Bug 173942] Re: volume increases uncontrollably on Dell 1420n

2008-04-08 Thread J. Bruce Fields
I haven't been able to reproduce the volume problem after upgrading to
the Hardy beta (currently kernel 2.6.24-15-generic).  So I assume this
should be closed.

Note entirely sure what the correct procedure is, but since the problem
appears to be gone in Hardy, I'm assuming Fix Released is appropriate.

** Changed in: ubuntu
   Status: New = Fix Released

After installing the
linux-backports-modules-2.6.22-14-generic_2.6.22-14.50_i386.deb linked
to from that wiki page, I can no longer reproduce the volume problem,
whereas I could reliably reproduce it before.  Thanks!  (Perhaps that
wiki page should be updated to recommend this for the 1420n as well sa
the XPS M1330n?)

Rhythmbox exhibits slightly different behavior now, intermittently just
refusing to continue playing the current song after resume until
playback is stopped and restarted.  I haven't tried to figure out
whether that's specific to rhythmbox.  In any case, it may be an
unrelated bug.

The left channel also produced no sound on the boot after installing the
new modules.  That fixed itself after suspend/resume, and I haven't
booted again yet.

2008-02-11 Thread J. Bruce Fields
That's correct.  Though actually, at least with rhythmbox, once I've
played a sound I actually have to quit rhythmbox to prevent the problem
occurring.  So:

 - If I've never played any sound, and I suspend/resume, no problem.
 - If I start rhythmbox, don't play any sound, then suspend/resume, no problem.
 - If I start rhythmbox, start a track playing, then suspend/resume, the 
problem occurs.
 - If I start rhythmbox, start a track playing, pause it, then suspend/resume, 
the problem occurs.
 - If I start rhythmbox, strart a track playing, quit rhythmbox, then 
suspend/resume, no problem.

I'm happy to try anything that'd help pinpoint the problem.

2008-02-11 Thread Jose De la Rosa
So it seems that the problem only presents itself if Rhythmbox (or any
other app, for that matter) is playing sound when you invoke
suspend/hibernate? If you pause/stop sound, then the problem never
occurs?

2008-02-11 Thread Jose De la Rosa
The problem could be related to Rhythmbox, have you tried with a
different app? How about Totem? What if you play an mp3 file instead of
ogg?

I'm curious, what video card are you using? (not that it matters, I'm
just curious)

2008-02-11 Thread J. Bruce Fields
It's not specific to rhythmbox.  I also tried doing a suspend and resume
while playing mp3's with totem and with the play command.  Both
triggered the problem.

Another interesting detail is that whenever the problem occurs there's
also a very soft digital click between 2 and 3 times a second, which
is absent normally.

(And lspci identifies the video card as an Intel Mobile GM965/GL960.
I think (I may have forgotten) that was the only option with this
model.)  For the sound it says:

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio
Controller (rev 02)

I can confirm this problem in gutsy on a Dell 1420n using rhythmbox and
amarok.  I also haven't been able to pinpoint what triggers this, but
also suspect an issue with suspend.  This could possibly be related to
the bug filed at the Dell Linux Wiki
http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Ubuntu_7.10/Issues/Audio_Failure_On_Resume
which references this LP filed bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/dell/+bug/146690.  When you resume from
suspend, do you get a notification that the volume applet crashed and
have to reload?

2007-12-04 Thread J. Bruce Fields
Experimenting some more: this isn't specific to rhythmbox, but to all
sounds (e.g., the sounds gdm makes on login are also affected)

I verified that I can temporarily fix the problem by rebooting.  I
haven't found any other way to stop the problem once it's started.

I did a suspend/resume after rebooting without triggering the problem.

I then did a second suspend/resume, this time while playing an ogg file
with the play command.  This time the problem did occur on resume.

I also tried controlling the volume with the volume applet and the
master slider on the gnome volume control, and the behavior is the same
as when I use the volume keys on the keyboard.

I take that back--a third suspend/resume, this time without anything
playing during the suspend, cleared the problem.

So the problem appears to occur if and only if I suspend and then resume
while a sound is playing.
