Hi there! |

Recently, PulseAudio got installed. Seems like gnome-settings-daemon |
4 |
version 3 no longer has the pulseaudio use flag, so it wants pulseaudio, |
5 |
which needs alsa-plugins built with the pulseaudio use flag. I wouldn't |
6 |
mind using PulseAudio, but ist starts automatically when I play movies, |
7 |
and I get no sound output in mplayer or VLC. And there are weird side |
8 |
effects, sometimes playback stops, I have to make it run again by |
9 |
skipping back and forward. Sometimes videos play much faster than normal. |
10 |
|
11 |
So I would like to get rid of it. Is this possible? I don't really use |
12 |
Gnome, but I like to have it to see how it develops. And I wouldn't like |
13 |
to remove it just because of a sound problem. |

Maybe the PulseAudio problem is the same as I had with ALSA, I have two |
16 |
internal cards, and I had to tell ALSA not to prefer the SPDIF one. |
17 |
Maybe I have to do the same with PulseAudio, but I do not know how. And |
18 |
the weird playback effects are spooky, I'd prefer to keep things as they |
19 |
are, at the moment I'm happy with plain ALSA. |

|
21 |
And what is starting the pulseaudio process? I can kill it, but it comes |
22 |
back the next time I run mplayer. Is there a way to just disable it? |
