Hi Dale and Volker, |
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
I tried it without pulseaudio first and, Dale, my card is unmuted. ;) |
| 86 |
Totem and vlc are working without any problems but ff and chromium |
| 87 |
aren't able to produce sound - and it is somehow related to the error |
| 88 |
message above. |
| 89 |
|
| 90 |
But Volker, I highly appreciate the tip with the spdif and I'll try that. |
| 91 |
|
| 92 |
Thank you very much. |
| 93 |
|
| 94 |
Kind regards, |
| 95 |
