[SOLVED] Can't get sound to work.

Hello, I installed archlinux a few days ago, I love it!
But I can't get sound to work.
I followed the alsa archwiki, but I still couldn't get it work.
I'm a real noob.
Someone please help.

why not? i use alsamixer as root to set all "globally". and "alsactl store" after that.
egb - make also sure you added yourself to audio group.
yeah, I did that some time ago
edit: oh and I get this when I do the "alsactl store":

[Solved] Can't get sound to work proper

Hey
I use KDE4 with KMix. I have 5.1 Optical sound.
When I enter Audio Setup in KMix and test the "hw: 0,1" option I get playback.
But I haven't gottten any sound except that. Tried a video in MPlayer and Youtube video in Firefox.
I'm still abit new to Arch and linux.
Also tried adding

pcm.plugequal {
type equal;
# Modify the line below if you do not
# want to use sound card 0.

#by default we want to play from more sources at time:

pcm.!default {

Did what you said. PCM was the only one muted.
Oddly, I recently started having the opposite problem. KDE startup and other systems sounds have stopped playing. All my other sound (mplayer, flash, etc) work fine. I can play the startup sound fine when opening it via dolphin. It just doesn't play on startup, or any other system sound. I know this happened after a recent update but I am not sure what or when caused it. Startup sound isn't that important to me but fixing it is. No luck so far.

Can't get sound to work [SOLVED]

Hi, I'm new to arch/linux in general. Built a computer, and can't get sound to work. I ran Ubuntu for a short period of time, and sound worked there, so I'm assuming there's no hardware issue here.
I'm a little bit stuck as to what I should be doing. Help?

Start with the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … chitecture
If you still can't figure it out and you want help, at least post some info, instead of 'can't get it to work' (this implies that you tried something, but what?).

After reinstall, can't get sound to work

I did a full reinstall of windows XP to a new hard dri've after my old one crashed, and I can't get the sound card to work. I am getting no sound whatsoever.
I have the Soundblaster? X-fi disc that came with my Dell computer, and I used that to install drivers. Device manager says the card and drivers are working properly. It also lists a Sigma Tel High Definition Audio Codec as a device, which is something that was on the driver disk supplied by Dell. I disabled that just in case the two are in conflict, but no luck. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Can't get sound to work

Hello,
haven't posted here in a long time, but now I decided to install arch on the new laptop I bought and I managed to get myself in a bit of trouble seeing that I never used a laptop before, let alone installed arch on it.
So my laptop model is Lenovo IdeaPad G510 ( CPU: Intel Core I5-4200m Haswell GPU: AMD Radeon HD 8570M).
I installed the propriety driver for the gpu but I use the intel integrated gpu for now because the X server doesn't start when using the amd driver, so that's one problem I jope you can help me with.
My other and more urgent problem is that I can't get the sound to work and creating a custom alsa conf just breaks alsa anyone has a clue as to how I can fix that?

it's the one built in with the CPU (that's why I posted the cpu make) and the alsa conf was like the one listed in the wiki where you specify one card to load before the other ( already delted the .conf so I can't post it sorry), my main problem is that I don't even know how to decide which of the devices show by aplay - l is my sound card, just never had to deal with sound before

Can't get sound to work on Firefox, but it works with Explorer.

I have a PC with window vista. I recently did a repair on vista because of malware. All normal except now I can't get the sound to work when I use Mozilla Firefox as browser. The sound works when I use explorer as browser. I have checked all connections & sound settings that I know. Help.

Satellite Pro P200 - Can't get sound to work

Hi, since I've had this laptop I've not been able to get the sound to work. Have tried turning the volume off and on from the ESC key and the master volume control looks fine. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Many thanks!

Hello Wayne
Please don't be mad on me but whole story is somehow strange. Why?
>since I've had this laptop I've not been able to get the sound to work
This cannot be the truth. Every notebook is preinstalled with Toshiba recovery image and recovery image is designed for your notebook model. That means, with factory settings everything MUST work well.
So questions are:
Do you still use factory settings or own preinstalled OS?
Do you use Vista?
Can you hear sound using headset?
Please offer a little bit more info.

[SOLVED] Can't get Steam to work, VirtualBox installation

Hello!
I'm having problems with getting Steam to work on my Arch Linux installation. I'm new to Linux so I'll just give you a prehistory & console output. I installed the distro on a virtual machine created in VirtualBox, installed xorg & KDE, I didn't install any video drivers because this is what wiki says:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VirtualBox#Installation_steps_for_Arch_Linux_guests wrote:Note: You do not need to also install a specific video driver in the guest system. Install the Guest Additions instead.
So I installed "virtualbox-guest-utils" package, created a file /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf with the following contents:
vboxguest
vboxsf
vboxvideo
Then I executed
sudo systemctl enable vboxservice
and rebooted the system. After the reboot I got the shared clipboard feature working => VBox Guest Additions seemed to work. Then I installed "steam" package, launched it via the terminal and waited for it to download it's updated. After Steam downloaded everything, I tried to launch it once again via terminal and got this:

and a GUI window saying "OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display". I tried to find a solution on the internet but they all mentioned installing Nvidia drivers. And VirtualBox GPU != Nvidia GPU.
Is there any way to solve this? Steam is working on my Fedora-VBox (this is the distro our lecturer uses as an example to teach us about Linux) installation out of the box.
EDIT: forgot to mention that system is x86_64, multilib in enabled, 3D acceleration in VM settings is enabled.

[SOLVED] Can't get curl to work, among everything else

No matter what form I put curl in, I can't see to get it to work. The various manuals I've read through <man> and online have all shown me different examples, but none work.
I've tried <command> | curl -F 'sprunge=<-'http://sprunge.us' and it does... nothing.
I've tried substituting ix urls and pastebin urls but it does nothing.
I feel like a complete moron because everyone expects me to instantly understand what all this gibberish means, and no one else seems to have a problem uploading command text online.
I've had trouble every step of the way installing arch, and its taken me four hours to slug through each problem. Right now I can't start fluxbox for some reason, but I can't get the errors here except for what I write down.
Heres the error for that
Xmodmap: unable to open display ''
Error: Couldn't connect to XServer
I've tried redirecting xmodmap to the keys but it did nothing. I've tried figuring out this xserver thing but my retardation has apparently gotten in the way.
Is this normal? Does everyone feel like an 90 year old when they first jump into arch linux?

Can't get sound to work - no /dev/dsp !!!

I could really do with some help here, this is the first time I have tried to get sound working under linux. I am using a Abit VT6X4 board with on-board sound (VT82C686A) AC97 compliant chipset. I am using Kernel 2.6 which uses the config from the 2.6 package but with added SCSI support. I created the audio group as per FAQ but with ^snd as well as ^sound in the devfsd.conf. I installed all of the ALSA packages, I added snd_via82xx and snd-pcm-oss to /rc.conf, I added the following to /etc/modules.conf
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
# module options should go here
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
# card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
When I login (as user or root) I get the dreaded no dev/dsp error.
Now if I ls -la in /dev, I see no dsp file/directory, however, if i touch /dev/dsp I get an access denied error (as root).
If I lsmod I get the following listed, so the modules appear to load ok.
snd_pcm_oss 49412 0
snd_mixer_oss 17056 1 snd_pcm_oss
snd_via82xx 22688 0
snd_pcm 91168 2 snd_pcm_oss,snd_via82xx
snd_timer 22532 1 snd_pcm
snd_ac97_codec 52900 1 snd_via82xx
snd_page_alloc 9220 2 snd_via82xx,snd_pcm
snd_mpu401_uart 6432 1 snd_via82xx
snd_rawmidi 20768 1 snd_mpu401_uart

soundcore 7456 1 snd

Still having no luck here. I added snd-mixer-oss snd-seq-oss to the /etc/rc.conf. Farphel, you mentioned setting up the /etc/devfsd.conf to link /dev/dsp to the appropriate devfs entry, could you please give me an example of which lines do this.
I also inserted the following into /etc/modprobe.conf
(i take it modules.conf is now ignored with Kernel 2.6?).
alias char-major-116* snd
options snd cards_limit=1
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
alias char-major-14* soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

[SOLVED] can't get flash to work

First i tried copying the flashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins dir, but it didnt exists yet, so i did a searh and i found. This http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … bit_System tried installing nspluginwrapper but it didnt work after restarting firefox. Tried manually installing the flashplater.so files again, since there was a dir there. Tried pacman -S flashplugin after i found that to be the most up to date way. None of this has worked, any ideas? I installed the 10.0.42.34 version. I never restarted anything other than firefox either. Thanx for any help.

Yes, sorry about the editing, i just spent 10 minutes looking for the edit buttons and then the submit buttons, my new style made them invisible:P . I had a thought though. Before i installed gnome i had installed firefox, could i have installed a second copy while installing gnome or done something else to cause me difficulty? I like firefox but i guess i'll try getting flash to work in some other browsers and see how that goes. Also, firefox isnt detecting any plugins in its add-ons section, perhaps thats a clue?

[SOLVED] Can't get sound working.

The system has onboard sound (EliteGroup GeForce6100SM-M motherboard) which I am not interested in, instead I would like to use my PCI card (Sound Blaster Live! 5.1), but I cannot get either working. And yes, I've already confirmed I am in the "audio" group, and logged out and in since...
I get the following during boot:

Here's what happens when I try setting up ALSA, along with the troubleshooting output as requested on the Arch Wiki's ALSA page:

I have tried manually loading the appropriate modules, adding the ALSA Wiki's "Setting up modprobe" block o' text to my modprobe.conf, and reinstalling alsa-utils/alsa-oss/linux. I've tried every bit of troubleshooting I can find, at least the ones that don't already assume I can start alsamixer in the first place. Anything obvious I've missed?
Thanks!
EDIT: Disregard, moved the card to my other PCI slot and it works fine now.

[Solved] Can't get MPD to work with PulseAudio

After a long time using straight Alsa I've been setting up Pulse because I want to send my laptop's audio to a networked device.

You're suggesting running mpd as its own user? If I did that, and configured mpd to output to 127.0.0.1, etc, would Pulse then be able to redirect the audio to another networked machine (since that's my end goal here)? I don't want to end up having to put the other machine's IP directly in mpd.conf, since I won't always be running that way (since it's a laptop - sometimes I'll take it on the road and use headphones).
Pulse can do that, yes, its very flexible that way. Doesn't matter where the audio comes from, really. Though as a disclaimer, I haven't tried it myself yet.
Why not just set two outputs for mpd and toggle between them since it has native support? Doesn't sound like you really need pulseaudio.

[SOLVED] Can't get microphone to work

Hi everyone, I'm trying to get my microphone to work so I can use Skype (which installed very easily btw). Headphone and speaker sound works fine. I know it's not a hardware issue because the mic works fine in Ubuntu 10.04 and Debian. My sound hardware is the onboard chip from my mobo: http://tinyurl.com/2d79c4d - a Realtek ALC888
I've unmuted both 'mic' and 'front mic' in alsamixer, but neither of them work when I try to record via arecord or Skype or vocaroo.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Various things I saw people post wrt to their own sound issues:
