Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] No sound during video playback

2014-09-20 Thread leo 
I've run into reoccurring no sound problems the past few months.
I'm running Ubuntu Studio LTS 12.04.5 64 bit

Thanks for your replies, sorry for not being more helpful so far.

I tried logging in as guest from a fresh boot, but guest user could
not access any of the drives with videos in, nor could I mount them
as sudo was not allowed.

Then I logged out and back in as my normal user account, and tried
opening a video with Totem (the default video player) and it worked
perfectly, with video and sound. I also tried with VLC and it
worked. I also opened Rhythmbox and it played audio files okay.

So for no apparent reason it seems to have fixed itself without me
actually doing anything other than logging in as guest before
logging into my user account.

It could just be an intermittent problem of course.

The default video player in Ubuntu Studio (just
called Videos) is not 
playing any sound, and that is not from a PPA.

My no sounds (Internet, e.g., YouTube; Ardour playback; wav files playback) 
problem seems to occur after 
  package manager updates. Which package updates appear to be the culprits, I 
don't know.
Also, sometimes after playing back files through softwares such as VLC, 
Audacious, and Audacity gives me the same resulting no sounds scenario.
In each case, why I don't know, I get my sounds back to normal by opening ...
  Applications Menu > Media Playback > PulseAudio Volume Control (PAVC) >Output 
Devices tab > Built-in Audio Analog Stereo
At that point, even though I can see the horizontal left and right volume 
displays moving along with whatever sound I'm playing, there is no audible 
sound.
Then I click the green button with white checkmark...and voila My sounds 
return right there and then.
I'd like to also point out that after clicking that button, it gets very 
slightly either light grey or darker grey and is extremely difficult which is 
which.
Hope this helps. ~Leo--

move said file to a location where the guest user *can* access the files..
or, make another user, a test user..

dont "believe" anything.. are you using pulse? pulse ships with
ubuntustudio.. also, JACK ships. if you start an audio application that
requires JACK, and automatically tries to start JACK, this can cause issues

You don't help us, in same time you also don't help you!!!

You only complain without showing us what you've done as a job.

Please write hire output sound settings of every program which do not 
work. Second of mixer and third of sound server. Did you do this? Please 
do it.


In my previous two e-mails I give you hint from where to start.

are you using any PPAs? if its just one isolated player that is not playing
the files, i would either remove/rename the config file for the application
in my users /home, or test playing a file with the application as another
user or the guest user. this will tell you if its a problem with the actual
application, or the config file for the application in your users /home.

if you find you have a bug, you can use
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs

what i like to do is lay out the *exact* circumstances for the issue, as
well as, in your case, sharing a common file that is not playing for you so
that another user, such as myself, can test and try and replicate the
issue. keep in mind, if you are using PPA's, make sure the files that are
being used are ubuntu files/applications and not files from the PPA's.. if
you use PPA's, you will report issues/bugs with those files/applications
provided by the PPA's with the PPA maintainers..

good luck and let us know what you figure out..

[ubuntu-studio-users] No sound during video playback

2014-09-15 Thread David King 
I am having a problem with getting sound from videos. It used to work 
just fine, no problem, regardless of video format/codecs.


But since the last few days, when I play a video in the default video 
player in Ubuntu Studio 14.04 there is no sound. Same goes for using VLC 
and Xine. However, if I play it in UMPlayer, the sound works. Sound in 
other applications, e.g. playing a video in Firefox, works perfectly, or 
playing music in Rhythmbox, so I know my sound system is functioning. 
But no more sound in some video playback, so what could cause that and 
how would I fix that?


I am wondering if a recent update might have caused this.
