[SOLVED] flash (pulseaudio) works but got quiet after update

Hi there,
Using pulseaudio, flash' audio output worked for me before `pacman -Syu` yesterday (last update was 2 or 3 weeks ago). Now there is still audio output, but it's very quiet. Really quiet. Like 2mm on the 10cm volume meter in pavucontrol.
The sound works flawlessly and waay louder with vlc. Of course I double checked volume settings, in flash, with pavucontrol and even alsamixer.
What has changed?
no ~/.asoundrc. /etc/asound.conf:
# Use PulseAudio by default
pcm.!default {
type pulse
fallback "sysdefault"
hint {
show on
description "Default ALSA Output (currently PulseAudio Sound Server)"
ctl.!default {
type pulse
fallback "sysdefault"
# vim:set ft=alsaconf:
EDIT: tried turning it off and on again - and now it works. w00t

  • Flash not working with any browser after update

    After an update, flash videos will not stream in any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari). I did a clean install of flash and the browsers, but to no avail. Mac 10.10.2. Has anyone else experienced this?

    Sadly doing that did not fix my problem either.     I just tried doing that and uninstalling flash player, rebooting and then reinstalling flash and I am still having the same problem as I stated here.   http://forums.adobe.com/message/4014843#4014843
    I have checked that flash is enabled
    Unchecked hardware accerleration
    Set in the internet options to use software rendering
    Tried updating my drivers (it tells me my drivers are up to date, in any case I have only had this laptop since July)
    I even tried deleting cookies, though I use IE9 instead of firefox so I just deleted them all instead of just the one for youtube, I honestly can not find the folder for cookies anyway with this windows 7 and how it is set up to try and delete the one cookie.
    I am really at a loss as to what to do.

  • My ipod touch 4G got problem after update to iOS 6, it can not access the Apps store ,can not access safari,map, weather and so on, could someone help me to solve the problem, thanks in advance~~~

    Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Infragistics UltraWebListbar was working fine with the earlier version of the firfox. But it crashes after updating to version 12.

    I am using infragistics UltraWebListbar to display list of menu in one of my page.
    It was working fine with the earlier version of the firfox. But it crashes after updating to version 12.
    Following are the few details from the stack trace
    System.Convert.ToInt32(String value) +63
    Infragistics.WebUI.UltraWebListbar.UltraWebListbar.getRenderer() +237

    It's a third-party application, ask Infragistics support board. Maybe they have a fix or a dev version to fix your issue.

  • Why AirPrint is not working on my ipad4 after updating to IOS 8.1?

    WWhy AirPrint is still not working on my ipad4 after updating to IOS 8.1

    Hello mmpreston,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot issues with AirPrint on your iPad please follow the directions outlined below.
    Check these things if you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found."
    Make sure your printer has paper, and enough ink or toner installed.
    Make sure your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iOS device.
    Make sure your printer has power and is turned on. Try turning your printer off and then back on again to see if it resolves your issue.
    Check to see if your printer has any error lights or indicators displayed on the printer's control panel. Check the documentation that came with your printer to clear any errors displayed.
    Check with your printer's manufacturer to see if any firmware updates are available for your printer. Check your printer's documentation or contact the printer vendor for more information. A firmware update may be available, even if you just bought your printer.
    About AirPrint
    Take care,
    Alex H.

  • My iphone 3g got locked after updating

    my iphone 3g got locked after updating the software and showing usb cable and itunes symbols

    That means your iPhone was hacked to be unlocked for use with any carrier's SIM card, which is not supported by Apple directly or indirectly via these discussions.
    Installing a firmware update on a hacked iPhone or restoring a hacked iPhone with iTunes relocks the iPhone to the carrier the iPhone was sold as carrier locked when new.

  • The wifi doesn't work on my iphone4s after updating to ios8. How do i fix it?

    The wifi doesn't work on my iphone4s after updating to ios8. How do i fix it?

    You're in luck, a non-unibody! At least keycaps can be found for those, cause when it happens to a unibody, you had better have AppleCare!
    Anyway, the keycaps on your model have a little white plastic "scissor" that gives the up/down motion and feel. If it won't click back in place, that part may have broken. Take a look in PowerBookMedic.com for a replacement. They may even have a how-to video too.

  • [SOLVED] Flash not working in Luakit

    I have the latest flash plugin (v11) but can't get flash to work in luakit on my laptop. When I go to YouTube and try to watch a video I get:
    You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video.
    Firefox has no problem but I can't be switching browsers every time I want to watch something on YouTube. Flash plays just fine in luakit on my desktop but I can't remember what I did to get it working...
    In my 'globals.lua':

    I had a feeling there was some pretty obvious difference between the config files on my desktop and my laptop. Somehow I had a 'www' (not in the default config) in fornt of 'youtube.com', after removing it everything works.
    The YouTube rule should look like:

  • [SOLVED] Gnome 3.2 - Applications Menu empty after update

    After updating all my boxes from 3.0 to 3.2, one of them got the Applications Menu wiped. The .desktop files are all there but none show up in the Menu, it's just empty.
    Apart from that everything seems to work just fine, did anyone came across a similiar problem or knows a solution ? I tried to google how to regenerate the Menu but failed to find anything useful and/or gnome3 related.

  • Safari not work for iPad mini after updated to ios 6.1.3

    After updated to ios 6.1.3, Safari just not response. I cannot input any web address. Do anyone has this problem? Do anyone know how to solve it?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Built in Audio not working in MacBook Pro after update to 10.7.3

    The Built In Audio is not working in My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) after update to 10.7.3; I tried resetting the PRAM and SMC but it didn't helped me out. I can get audio only if i reboot my mac from Safe Mode or reboot after Repairing Disk Permissions in disk utility using the Recovery Partition;. If i make a normal restart or just startup then the built in audio disappers (audio is displayed gray in the menu bar) . Everything was working well with the 10.7.2
    - Audio Works well with the Boot Camp Partition. and There is a sound during boot up. 

    I dont have any backups and i dont have time capsule or  an external hard drive ready to be used for backup.
    My macbook is my the only one computer. The problem is that the animation is lagging when i change the window to dashboard or safari or mail or another window. Inspite of this my macbook works well.
    But 5 minutes ago, I noticed that if i run autocad on my mac- the lags go away!!!!

  • Flash Player stopped allowing full screen after update....

    Some where arround 10.0 the flsh player on my XP and Vista computers stopped going to full screen when using the little square in the lower right corner of the viewing area... The screen switches to blank white screen while audio continues in the backround... hitting excape brings back the previous screen with the small movie viewing area in the middle of the computer screen.    I noticed some where around this time hovering over the square that used to switch to full screen no longer brought up the text telling what the square was supposed to do....ie switch to full screen for the movie...At first I thought this was a Hulu move to get me to purchase the movies... The same results were on YouTube as well and other sites... I noticed that for a time Internet Explirer was able to switch to full screen but Firefox was not... I found that an update of the flash player on IE caused the same loss of full screen as on Firefox... (switch to blank white screen..)  Chrome has the same result... Blank white sceen with audio in the background...A search of the forum messages seems to point out a problem that comes and goes as versions come and go... I have found google search results that should lead one to a site that would let you go back to a version that worked for me, but everything leads me to the site that will down load the latest version included the last version that indicated it was fixing my problem and may have for the other hardware and software combinations... but not for any of my computers with XP or Vista... If there was a paid version of Flash player that would allow me to expand the movie beyond the size of a post card, I would buy it... I found a telephone number that apparent linked to India or somewhere where they will support for money but the operator did not give me any confidence that he would do anything other than take the cash....If any one has a "fix" for this, I would sign up for the support, or buy the version or what ever Adobe wants me to do to fix my problem... My email is [email protected]  I know that complaining about "free software" is frowned upon, but when the use of the software is demanded by having Hulu and others work only with their software, I think some effort to make the software work can be expected....Should we take the position that if we have a version that works, don't allow any updates...

    I haven't read the full text of your post, only "blank white screen on fullscreen".  If there are any other important info in the long text that follows, please let me know...
    Most issues with fullscreen can be corrected by either
    disabling Hardware Acceleration (Flash Player Settings)
    or installing the latest available device drivers for the video card
