Randuev Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 I got dmix working in KDE for my intel 8x0 card. Wonderful, everything is playing at the same time and I'd be happy completely, except. I have no sounds in KDE, as in no start up sound, no end sound no sounds for windows going up and down. In "Configure Desktop", in sound system I have selected ALSA - no go, i've also tried Threaded OSS, still no good. Funnily enough, I can play Test sound properly. But no other sounds come out of KDE. Even when I try to set notify's, pressing preview sound does nothing. No sound whatsoever. It's possible that I screwed something up and it works for somebody else. I'd like to know why it doesn't work for me. If somebody needs help with dmix and alsa, I can help :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qchem Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 I'm a gnome user so this may be on the wrong track, are you sure you have the KDE sound server up and running?? Also check KDE's mixer to make sure everything is unmuted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 Did you solve it? How strange it may sound (haven't tested it myself) .. to use alsa and dmix you don't select alsa in kde control center .., but .. is "threaded OSS"(but seems you did that ...). you also looked here(I suppose so .., but anyway)?: http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randuev Posted March 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 problem is still here. everything is unmuted. sound is playing through xmms, totem, frozen-bubble. but not in kde (sound events) nor in chromium. I looked at the page about dmixplugin, that's how I configured dmix originally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
