I am on Hardy and have a very similar problem. When I press the 'Test' button for sound capture, I have an error window that appears and that do not go away when pressing the close button.
I am giving the message I get in command line, as it is almost identical to the text in window, but also give where the error happens: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ gnome-sound-properties sound-properties-Message: Error running pipeline 'gconfaudiosrc ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink profile=chat': Failed to create stream: (null) [pulsesink.c(388): gst_pulsesink_prepare (): /pipeline0/gconfaudiosink0/bin0/autoaudiosink0/autoaudiosink0-actual-sink-pulse] Note, I have no microphone plugged in. Similar bugs are #138318, #107797. Also #131711 but there people have also problems with sound in general. ** Attachment added: "Paul Dufresne's dpkg -l | grep gst output" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10792614/dpkg.txt -- Gnome Audio Preference crash when testing sound capture https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/69592 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
