Oops, you're right. I am (almost) sure it had been hard masked some time i= n=20 the past, I remember emerge --sync telling me all about it. Anyway, it see= ms=20 that playsound now works fine and I have added -arts to my USE flags. While we're at it I might as well share this little sound problem/feature w= ith=20 you:=20 When my laptop boots up the sound is always muted. To kick start it I need= to=20 either increase/decrease the volume (Master, or PCM) using alsamixer, or=20 press the dedicated volume hardware buttons on the laptop keyboard. It can= =20 get more weird too: If I have launched an application that uses sound=20 directly like e.g. Amarok, then in addition I need to increase the volume t= o=20 100% to get sound from both speakers. Otherwise only the RH speaker works.= =20 Does this all make any sense to you? =2D-=20 Regards, Mick --nextPart3944007.v4KNj7KV5E Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBF7bdX5Fp0QerLYPcRAtGVAJ4vAksYeBYTv1XyURbjliCekHQd7gCgqv59 VS8aY6uvPOrPqB9N8EqqN/s= =xXxt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart3944007.v4KNj7KV5E-- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
