Hey for me all is working if I do it: sudo aptitude install libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio
and configuration for /etc/asound.conf pcm.pulse { type pulse } ctl.pulse { type pulse } Nothing else!!! With this, if pulseaudio is not playing anything skype works fine! But firefox crashes sometimes when I play some flash, not always just some times. I tried to put configuration for asound with: pcm.!default { type pulse } ctl.!default { type pulse } But after that skype stops working, so I fixed It when I put back my configuration. Also I installled a new 8.04.1 on a new computer everything works fine, I don't have to do anything new! -- Default ALSA device must use PulseAudio, otherwise ALSA applications may fail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198453 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
