[SOLVED] External sound output silent since upgrade to GNOME 3.16

Hi.
I just upgraded my machine to GNOME 3.16 (pacman log). Since then, sound output (whether the GNOME Sound applet test, or Clementine, or YouTube from Firefox)...
... works fine when outputting to the laptop speakers.
... is silent when I plug my external speakers to the computer's jack 3.5" out. I have two outputs, am using the same as before the upgrade but tried both nevertheless, and plugging an mp3 player works.
Here is my config:
laptop = Dell XPS 1645
uname -a = Linux x 3.19.3-3-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 8 14:10:00 CEST 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux
pulseaudio = pulseaudio 6.0-1
Any idea? Debug suggestions? Need more info? Thanks for the help.
EDIT: Problem solved after a second reboot :-/

I've tried to reinstall kernel26-lts...and even with this kernel, the same error occurs...It's most likely related to the mkinitcpio creation process.
Did you try the fallback initramfs?

External sound output on Macbook Air stopped working

Two months ago, my Macbook Air went silent.
I tried every trick I was suggested, including upgrading to Mountain Lion OSx , after which sound came back for a few day then disappeared again.
Their is no external speakers listed under <system preferences / sound / output>
Internet is full of this complains, I mean it is not regional and limited to a particular version of hardware/software... complains are coming from everywhere across the world since 2008.
Unfortunately tech support at Apple appears to have no clue as neither hardware change nor software update / upgrade doesn't seem to solve the issue permanently. But they still replace parts and software for some reason, just to drive people crazy later.
I am confident that this issue has already been told to design team , the problem was known for years after all.
What is this? Does Apple expects people to trash their computers when this happens? and get a new one? Is this because Apple asks new customers if they want to recycle their old computers with them?
You probably think I am an Apple hater , I am not. I like their products but I hate their tech support, I am sick and tired of listening to so-called geniuses , bunch of untrained high school kids with a lot of BS.
Only hope I have left is, somehow, there maybe someone out there who already solved this problem... Are you there?
MacBook Air specs :
Processor 2.13 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
Software OS X 10.8
Other Apple products I use together with this Mac :
Magic mouse
Apple TV latest
iPad latest
iPod touch 4th gen.

I finally found the solution,
the solution itself actually explains why Apple was so silent about this issue
because every macbook that was sold over the last 5 years was defective ,
it will probably cost Apple $100s of millions to recall them
It is the Audio Board Flex Cable, Part #: 922-8380
this cable goes bad quickly,
it is defective because this is strickly a design issue
I opened the macbook and replaced it myself,
all looks fine now

remove them in Safe Mode with >>Driver Fusion<<
then reboot to normal mode and install MSI VGA drivers for your card:
http://www.msi.com/product/vga/N560GTX-Ti-Twin-Frozr-II-OC.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win8%2064
during installation select custom install and checkmark "clean install"
Looked like stable. Played 3 WOT games in a row without any problems (before it would crash in the second game). In the 4th game it blued screen and said "Clock Watchdog Timeout"

[SOLVED] forms looking strange in opera since upgrade to gnome 3.4

Hi!
I just upgraded my gnome installation to gnome 3.4 and now I see some strange rendering effects in opera regarding forms.
First problem is that text fields now have an inner border. This creates a 3D effect but looks kind of strange because the text overlaps this inner border:
The second (and more severe) problem is that entries of a drop-down menu disappear when they are hovered:
I searched through gnome's and opera's theme settings but couldn't find any option that could change this behaviour. I also tried removing the .opera directory but it also didn't help.
Can anyone confirm these problems and has anyone an idea how to fix it?
Greetings,
Michael
PS: The screenshots were taken in this forum (search form) but can be seen on all other websites with standard forms.
edit:
fixed in opera 12 build 1406 (currently beta status and only available on AUR)

Good idea, but it's set to Adwaita.
-- edit:
ok, this is definately a problem with opera and the new version of Adwaita. If I use the old Adwaita version, that's included in gnome-themes-standard-3.2.1-1, as GTK+ theme both problems are solved. But then other things look weird...
I reported this to the opera team. A workaround is to set "Dialog Toolkit" to 1 (qt) or 4 (neither gtk nor qt) in opera:config.

And dont have any sound anymore, nowhere. PulseAudio is just ignoring my sound-card completely and KDE/GNOME System settings tell me that i do not even have any soundcard
Alsamixer detects the soundcard fine and if i unmute the soundcard there, it works. But its not really comfortable to change the volume with Alsamixer. Also i have no ability to change between HDMI and Analog.
Any idea what could have cause this? As you can see in the logs, there havent been any major kernel update nor pulseaudio update.
This is the Soundcard: Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA)
Kernel Module is snd_hda_intel which is loaded and working
Seems like Pulseaudio is not running at all, it also does not start with the message "E: [pulseaudio] core-util.c: Home directory not accessible: Permission denied" which is not true
Last edited by Vamp898 (2014-01-26 15:29:22)

Ok, found out it was true.
Seems like whatever reason i have to find out reset some files (not all) to root, so i was no longer the owner of some random files for whatever reason.
Works now.

External SyncMaster T240 "snowing" since upgrade to 10.7.3?

Since upgrading to 10.7.3 my SyncMaster T240 screen is "snowing". Any suggestions? I have repaired permissions, created a new monitor profile and tried all the "standard" fixes.
Thanks, Bill

Well, I know about the problem but do not know a solution I am afraid. I had the same problem where the wiki, calendar and addressbook were a couple of months old after a restore from time machine two weeks ago. I did not relate this to the upgrade to 10.7.3, but that could easily be the case. I never did time machine restores before.
I was able to restore calendars from client side time machine backups (a lot of work), but the wiki I could not restore to an up-to-date version. My guess is that files were restored correctly, but not the postgresql databases. So I started to make daily backups from postgresql myself now. This post helped me with that:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17008934#17008934
Another thing I started doing was creating a bootable clone on a usb disk with carbon copy cloner, which is incrementally updated twice a day now.
But I hope that Apple will fix this in an upcoming update. I would be nice if you could rely on Time Machine backups.

[Solved] No Sound Output Listed in Gnome Sound Settings

Hi,
Just recently installed Arch and installed Gnome-Shell. I have no sound at all and there is no devices listed in the output tab of the sound settings in Gnome Settings.
I can change volume but of course there is no sound.
Any help on how to diagnose and fix this would be appreciated.

I have added this to ~/.asoundrc:
pcm.dsp {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
but to no avail. I have also installed paprefs and my sound card isn't listed, only the HDMI output which I don't use. I also tried this:
Using paprefs, simply select "Add virtual output device for simultaneous output on all local sound cards" from under the "Simultaneous Output" tab. Then, under GNOME's "sound settings", select the simultaneous output you have just created.
Nothing.
I also tried the verbose option too with the same result.

This is the output of for i in $(awk '{print $2}' /proc/asound/modules | sort | uniq); do echo "--- $i ---"; systool -vm $i; done

Things keep disappearing since upgrade to Gnome 2.22

Ever since I upgraded to Gnome 2.22, things keep disappearing from the desktop.
1. When I start a Gnome session, Gkrellm automatically starts and appears on workspace 1. If I change workspaces, then come back to workspace 1 Gkrellm is gone. I try to start it and it says:
gkrellm: Exiting because multiple instances option is off.
Evidently it is still running, it is just gone from the desktop.
2. When I start a Gnome session, I have Firestarter start automatically. When I send Firestarter to the tray, after a short period of time, the Firestarter Icon is gone from the tray. Then the only way I can bring the FIrestarter GUI back up is to restart Firestarter.
Anyone else having problems with stuff disappearing with Gnome 2.22?
Pudge

I personally stopped using gnome after 2.20 its just so... well buggy. My girlfriend however is still using it and she occasionally has the entire desktop disappear on start up, randomly either nautilus or gnome-panel will crash on start up. Could be related I guess.
Ive read somewhere that problems like this can be related to the GTK theme or something random like that, though she is using the default clearlooks gnome theme.
Best thing to do is look through /var/log/Xorg.<x>.log and /var/log/everything.log and see whats crashing, if anything.

No sound on YouTube since upgrading to Mountain Lion

I think this problem started after upgrading to Mountain Lion, but I didn't notice it for the first few weeks, so I'm not certain. I haven't made any other changes since then. My husband upgraded his iMac at the same time, and he didn't lose the audio on YouTube. The sound is fine for other videos.

Most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin ...
Open System Preferences > Flash Player then select the Advanced tab.
Click: Delete All
Quit then relaunch your browser and try a video.
If that doesn't help, uninstall the old Flash plugin > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
Then reinstall new > http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Very important to uninstall the old plugin first.
Then relaunch your browser to test.

Headphone output malfunctioning since upgraded to mountain lion from snow leopard.

Hi there,
Ever since I upgraded to Mountain Lion I've been experiencing issues with audio output through headphones. The left headphone is significantly louder than the right. I've tried multiple different pairs of headphones and experienced the same result. I have windows installed on my computer via bootcamp and when I boot up using the Windows OS the headphones work perfectly. Thus, I think it's safe to say this is a software issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Bah simple answer, for some reason upgrading changed the balance option in system preferences. Fixed that and all is well

Has anyone else had optical sound output problems since the last Apple software update?

I have just read an article about this problem and it seems that there is an issue with the last software update from Apple which has caused problems with the optical sound driver.
My optical output stopped working a couple of weeks back which would probably coincide with the last update that was installed. Still have a red light at the end of the cable but no sound is transmitted.

here's a thread with a possible solution.
https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/790883
if clearing the system cache doesn't work, a factory reset should (just back up anything you don't want to lose).

[SOLVED] static sound in VLC after upgrade to 2.0.5-3

Hello all,
VLC was working flawlessly, had sound, could open multiple videos at one time, no issue..
Performed a pacman -Syyu last night, VLC upgraded, and now I can only open 1 video at a time, and that video has static for audio.
I downgraded to VLC 2.0.5-2, and now VLC won't play ANY videos, I get this:
No suitable decoder module:
VLC does not support the audio or video format "WMA2". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.
No suitable decoder module:
VLC does not support the audio or video format "WMV2". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.
I tried this post:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=155205
I'm not sure where to go to get VLC back to where I can play video.

There seem to be a couple problems with latest VLC, e.g. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/33833
I had a couple problems, including the unkown format WMA2 when downgrading only VLC.
To fix the problem for now downgrades to
ffmpeg-1:1.0.1-1
vlc-2.0.5-2
x264-20121113-1
should do the trick.

[SOLVED] Openbox's obconf issue since upgrade

Good Afternoon Arch Community,
I use LXDE on top of openbox. since the upgrade, my obconf is throwing up the error:
Failed to load an rc.xml....
pacman was wanting to upgrade obconf but was complaining about the -git version. I assumed that the new openbox needed the newer obconf. I used
sudo pacman -Sf obconf
and allowed pacman to do it's thing.
Same error as pre-obconf upgrade.
Current version in the repos as of this writing is:
obconf-2.0.3.git20100309-1
I looked in the bugs under "obconf" and found no entries.
Then I went into the "~/.config/openbox" directory and nuked the contents, then recopied the /etc/xdg/openbox files files my home directory where they should be (as per the wiki), and then started "X".
I also verified proper permissions on the files in "~/.config.openbox".
Same error.
LXDE is still running, but of course my right click options for openbox are now gone as it's not liking something about the files. So my system is not "down" per-se. I've just lost some functionality.
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Sincerely and respectfully,
Dave

Hello bernarcher,
rc.xml already exists in "~/.config/openbox". So I mv'd it to another name, created the symlink and tried again. Same error.
Then I removed the symlink and restored the original file.
Sorry it didn't work, but thank you for the post.....
For the record, here is the contents of my "/.config/openbox" directory:
