No TV sound - Problem with Pulseaudio and Gnome

Hi Community!
Since January 2013 I got big problems with the sound of my tvcard. The card is a Sundtek Media TV Pro. But after all the problems have nothing to to with the card itself!
So far I found out, that the problem is with Pulseaudio.
- Sound works under Windows on same PC.
- Sound don't work under Arch - not with tvtime, not with vlc, etc.
- Problem occurs even on a new installed system with the Arch-2013-02-01 install medium.
cat /etc/mediasrv.log
[1033] Pulseaudio connect reported an error (6 - Connection refused)
[1033] select error() in audio processor (can be caused because of pulseaudio) (Interrupted system call)
After setting up a new Arch installation with just xorg-server, gnome, tvtime and the sundtek driver from AUR I run journalctl -b:
Feb 10 16:25:15 hightower pulseaudio[636]: [pulseaudio] pid.c:
Daemon already running.
With sudo journalctl | grep 'Feb 10 16:2' I get the following output:
Feb 10 16:25:01 hightower rtkit-daemon[489]: Successfully made thread 488 of process 488 (/usr/bin/pulseaudio) owned by '120' high priority at nice level -11.

Feb 10 16:28:55 hightower pulseaudio[997]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Start des Daemons fehlgeschlagen.
So, if I understand right, pulseaudio is alreade started by the rtkit-daemon and gnome couldn't start it again.
At https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30926 I found a hint concerning /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop and /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio-kde.desktop.
After removing them from /etc/xdg/autostart and running journalctl -b there are no more errors.
With sudo journalctl | grep 'pulseaudio' I get:
sudo journalctl | grep 'Feb 10 17:4' | grep 'pulse*'
Feb 10 17:41:42 hightower rtkit-daemon[485]: Successfully made thread 484 of process 484 (/usr/bin/pulseaudio) owned by '120' high priority at nice level -11.

In my opinion all looks ok! I also checked the channels with the alsamixer and it looks good, too.
So I ran vlc v4l2://:dev=/dev/video0:width=720:height=576:tuner-frequency=510750:adev=/dev/null:standard=255 - but still no sound.
With cat /var/log/mediasrv.log I checked the drivers logfile:

I started tvtime again. This time I ran rm -rf ~/.config/pulse/ and killall pulseaudio to kill the Pulseaudio server. I instantly got a loud noise out of my speakers.
I closed tvtime and re-opened it. And there it was: TV SOUND OUT OF MY SPEAKERS!
But now, when I run pavucontrol I get:
Connection to PulseAudio failed. Automatic retry in 5s.
In this cas this is likely because PULSE_SERVER in the Environment/X11 root Windows Properties or default-server in client.conf is misconfigured.
This situation can also arrise when PulseAudio crashed and left stale details in the X11 Root Windows.
If this is the case, then PuseAudio should autospawn again, or if this is not configured you sould run start-pulseaudio-x11 manually.
I got the information from Sundtek, that Pulseaudio should not be started as system service. Instead, every user should have an own Pulseaudio daemon and that PA was concepted this way. But they don't know how it is implemented in ArchLinux.
I also don't know it exactly. So the question to all you ArchLinu pro's:
How is PA implemented in Arch? And how can I sustainable solve my problem?
Thank you for your time and help!

There is just one more thing I found out.
After logging into Gnome and running ps aux | grep pulse I get:
rebel 727 0.7 0.2 444316 10288 ? S<l 03:02 0:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog

rebel 843 0.0 0.0 17396 1184 pts/0 D+ 03:03 0:00 grep pulse
To get the sound to work I run:
rm -rf .config/pulse/
killall pulseaudio
killall -9 pulseaudio
I again run ps aux | grep pulse
rebel 4016 4.2 0.2 510124 11528 ? Sl 03:06 0:02 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog

rebel 4046 0.0 0.0 19456 1216 pts/0 R+ 03:07 0:00 grep pulse
I can recognize that the STATs have changed. Maybe this can help to solve the problem?

Sound problems with CNBC and E4 with TV @nywhere Master

Got the TV @nywhere Master card, had no problems with tuning in the cable stations picked up all the channels, but E4 and CNBC have no sound just a anoying clicking sound. Have updated the drivers and software, tried the card with Windows 2000 SP4, and XP pro SP1, tried both internal & external audio connections, nothing makes a difference. Anyone got any idea's?

I bought and installed a TV@nywhere Master yesterday (18June03) and no sound problems at all. The Radio volume control definitely controls the line in volume, but check that the mixer Volume Control is not being muted. My Sound in via on-board sound 6 channel Realtek ACL650.
I have been generally very pleased with the results but have yet to get the remote to do anything, I have WinXP SP1 with all updates installed. Not sure if it is my System set-up or faulty remote but it a minor concern for me.
I would suggest that you take a look at VirtualVCR (freeware) for your capturing if you want more that Mpeg files. It works very well for me and allows me to capture using the frame size and codec of my choosing

Sound problem with java and windows (volume)

Hello,
Just wondering if there is any way that java can manipulate the sound volume
in windows...I've searched through the forums here and ive noticed that this question has come up a number of times, but nothing definitive has really been posted.
My program is a 'server' side portion of a mobile phone app ive written, that im trying to use as a remote to turn up the volume, skip tracks, etc. on my pc via bluetooth. Basically what im doing is sending a string from the mobile phone app to the pc telling it to increment the volume/decrement the volume by a certain amount. Can java do this natively or am i going to need to use a C++ library through JNI (which i have never done before)
Any help appreciated!
Thanks,
Craig

Victor,
I've tried your suggestions and found that the first one only alters the volume of the midi file that is being played through java. I want to be able to alter the volume of the sound that I already have coming out of my speakers, through windows master volume control.
Your second suggestion I also tried but to no luck...i always get the following exception message:
"Failed trying to find LINE_IN VOLUME control: exception = java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Line unsupported: LINE_IN source port"This exception occurs no matter what I change LINE_IN to in this segment of code (I want to control sound output so i assume it should be either SPEAKER or LINE_OUT):
lineOut = (Port)mixer.getLine(Port.Info.LINE_IN);Any other suggestions?
I noticed on the j2se sound guide site, they mention a way to get a list of supported mixers and/or lines, but im not exactly sure how to go about doing that (maybe it will be helpful?)
Thanks for your time,
Craig

New Sound Quality Problems with Flash and Macintosh

First I noticed the the Flash 8 Video Encoder exported low
low quality sound, as if pass through some bit-crusher folder,
happened on several macs in the office. Finally, I try it on
Windows XP, and no sound problems with FLV export (and it was
exporting videos 400% faster than macs).
Now, both inside Flash Ap itself, and worse in the SWF,
stream sounds are low-quality, with 16bit 44k pristine-sounding
source files.
If anyone has answers (I've been searching for a couple days
now) please write [email protected]

Problem with Speaker and Headset in Windows Vista

Hi, I just got my Macbook Pro 13" and having problem with speaker and headset when working with Windows Vista (I have installed the driver from bootcamp). The sound very weak if I play music from Itunes or youtube even the volume already full and if i put my headset the sound not coming out. Is there anyone can help me to solve this problem?
Regards,Edwin

When you post about Windows / Boot Camp, in Mac Pro (workstation) forum where others with a MacBOOK would be more likely to have same hardware configuration, and you won't find Windows drivers on Apple downloads. More like at
http://www.guru3d.com or other sites, or go to RealTek (if that is the type of audio you have).

Problem with youtube and other video websites

I have a problem with youtube and other video websites:
Everything is up to date (flash, FF, my plug ins..) but i keep getting freezes when the video loads. I can hear sound but i can only see the first frame of the video.
I've reinstalled flash/firefox or tried updating them again for about 4 times now and my cookies/cache has also been errased which i usually don't do. If i enter FF's safe mode it also freezes.
I hope someone could help out, i've searched for answer on google before and tried everything i saw but it didn't helped.
grts,

Hmm, so that person had a conflicting plug in.
Problem is that whenever i enter firefoxes safe mode which disables every plug in, i still have the youtube freeze/crash

My apologies about not explaining further about disabling SPDIF passthrough. See the steps below to enable DDL encoding.
***Before proceeding please make sure that you've purchased, installed and activated the DDL pack***
. Open Creative Audio Console, go to the Decoder tab to disable driver level encoding and enable SPDIF passthrough (this is done by selecting SPDIF passthrough or any similar option that enable the use of an external decoder) instead of using the built-in decoders.
2. Open up your playback devices window (right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar and select playback devices) and set analog speakers (not SPDIF) as your default device. This is VERY IMPORTANT step, or else you get the "the device is busy" error when enbaling DDL encoding.
3. In the Audio Console, select the Encoder tab and enable DLL encoding.
Note:
When DDL encoding is enabled, it makes exclusi've use of your SPDIF connection so, no passthrough is possible. The default output format when using DDL encoding is 48KHz/6 bits. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) when DLL encoding is enabled, then please change their output device to analog speakers instead of SPDIF.
To use back SPDIF passthrough (when playing back media with a pre-encoded audio source), open up Audio Console and disable DDL encoding and in the Playback Devices window change the default device to SPDIF. If you make use of any AC3 audio filters (such as ac3filter/others included in codec packs/media player softwares) then please change their output device back to SPDIF. You may also wish to change back your output format to 92KHz/24 bits (right click on SPDIF and select properties -> Advanced tab).

Problem with ssh and bash-completion

I and a co-worker are having a weird problem with ssh and bash-completion. We have a local config in .ssh/config with hosts we connect everyday. An example:
host foo
hostname foo.org
user foobar
host foobar
hostname foobar.org
user foobar
When we try to type
ssh foo<tab><tab>b<tab>
the console just freeze and we can't type anything, everything we type is ignored, but after about 30 seconds the host is completed.
This works a some time ago, so some upgrade make this happen. Anyone can reproduce this?

Hiccups/hangs with pulseaudio and hd audio ALC883 (ClevoM570RU)

Hello guys,
well, as the topic already says, I'm having problems with pulseaudio combined with an ALC883 hd audio card
on a Clevo-M570RU. I got occassional hiccups and hangs and pulseaudio rewinds.
For some strange reason I can't kill pulseaudio without having it restart immediatley in the
current version of archlinux, but I can tell that prior versions showed that the wakeup timer of the pulseaudio
was increased steadily after buffer underruns occured.
Its quite rare that buffer underruns occur in which cases pulseaudio triggers a replay of the lost samples (resulting in a hiccup)
but I can trigger it about every 30-2mins secs with running flash in fullscreen (happens way less in normal window size mode).
Sometimes the general setup seems to be unstable, resulting in hiccups every like 10 secs, with increasing "severity".
So far I tried everything possible to fix this issue without any success so far. Maybe one of you guys has an insight into this.
So far I can only tell, that flash in fullscreen and also normal video playback in vlc (with VDPAU or without, fullscreen worse) trigger this issue way more often.
So chances are, this is triggered by the NVIDIA drivers, but the problem with that is, that I really need those for development work.
Also note that e.g. Ubuntu 9.04 did not trigger such an issue - maybe they had an workaround and didn't push it upstream (as usual).

If i run
modprobe snd_hda_intel vendor=0x10de product=0x0e0a
then this gets printed to the kernel log
[ 655.731520] snd_hda_intel: unknown parameter 'vendor' ignored
[ 655.731527] snd_hda_intel: unknown parameter 'product' ignored
[ 655.731856] hda_intel: Disabling MSI

[ 656.739954] hda-intel 0000:01:00.1: Codec #0 probe error; disabling it...
I've tried vid, pid, vendor_id and product_id as parameters, none work. And if i issue modinfo on this module i can't really find a parameter that looks like vendor/product id.
The same happens if i try adding parameters to the loading of snd_hda_codec_hdmi.

I have sounds problems with iOS 7

I have sounds problems with iOS 7. I can not hear my music, all the apps have no sounds. Only when I ask Siri has sound but it's too loud and awful. I found 2 errors with I ask to Siri what things she can do in Spanish the is an error and one word or If I ask who am I? She said that I have to go to settings and indicate her who I am but I already have that configured. And I try to configure again just in case, I do the same question and she still doesn't who I am.

Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

Try booting in Safe Mode by holding the the shift key immediately after powering on your system. Safe boot mode will for a directory check of your startup volume, then load only the required kernal extensions (kext files), and deletes some cache files. Once the system boots into Safe Mode you can simply restart the system to see whether the issue has been resolved.
If you still have the issue try resetting the SMC by shutting down the system and disconnecting the power cord for ~15 seconds, then reconnecting the power cord. Next, reset the parameter RAM (PRAM) by holding down the option-option-P-R keys after powering ON the system. Wait until the iMac restarts twice, then let the system boot normally.

Sound problems with movie

I just purchased the movie "Overboard" in HD. The movie video plays ok, but the sound keeps going in and out.
I don't understand why this is happening. My music plays ok and I'm not having any other sound problems with my
computer. I am running Itunes on a Windows 8.1 desktop computer (Gateway).
I couldn't figure out how to re-download it or repair it.
If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it!
Thanks!
