Since I've already filed this bug before, and had it rejected, I'd like to chime in before it gets rejected again. Alsaconf is a buggy, sorry excuse for a configurator that happens to work. Before dropping it, please see that its functionality is replaced. For Gnome users, I hear that it is. For KDE users, especially KDE users with multiple sound cards, it's not. I assume the situation is similar for users of other desktops.
Last time this came up, I was admonished to file bugs against the failures of existing tools to solve these problems. That's good advice, but until those tools (and there should be a command line, desktop- independent tool among them) are ready to do what alsaconf has done for those of us who have come to appreciate it, please leave it as an option. -- Don't drop alsaconf https://launchpad.net/bugs/54262 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
