Public bug reported: Binary package hint: alsa-base
Alsa does not seem to work after upgrading to karmic from jaunty: killing pulseaudio and and starting with -vvvv gives the following ...

After the above changes -ao alsa does work with mplayer which I suspect is pulse offering an alsa input ** Affects: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- alsa broken after upgrade from jaunty to karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468248 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
