As requested, I moved the pulse folder somewhere else and remerged |
86 |
pulseaudio as well moved /etc/asound.conf somewhere else as well. |

No sound! |

I have the dumb feeling that one process is blocking the output, I hear |
121 |
in my headphones the white noise of my system, which wouldn't be there |
122 |
if the soundcard hadn't been initialised. |
123 |
|
124 |
|
125 |
Is there a way to find out which applications might make use of the |
126 |
soundcard right now?! |
