Public bug reported: Ubuntu 9.04 x64 Kernel 2.6.28-12 I believe
When I plug my headset/mic combo in to a usb port, the computer recognizes the headset, but does not initiate the device with ALSA, I would have to switch to OSS to use the headset. I have a Genius product, but unfortunately, there are similar problems with Logitec headsets. The exact option for me in the Sound Preferences window for my set is: "Elite Silicon USB Audio Device USB Audio (ALSA)" When I start a test, I get the following error; "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open audio device for playback." Also, when I try a sound capture test, I get the following error: "gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat: Could not open audio device for playback." Obviously, sound should be working without these errors, and with sound. Thank you for taking the time to read this. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- USB Headsets do not work with ALSA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373528 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
