resetting audio in gnome

[Thane M. Andersen]

Hello,
A step less drastic than completely removing Gnome and reinstalling it might
be just create a new user account.  This should give you the defaults, at
least as far as user specific settings are concerned.  The result of this
action might indicate whether the problem is a user specific problem or a
system wide problem.  

I hope this saves you some work,
Thane

Hi Will,

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, the problem is that sound 
isn't being heard, not the inability to load orca. I've had orca up and 
running on the machine since January, so it's probably safe to assume 
it's speaking even though nothing is being heard. I suspect something 
happened to the ESD mixer since that's the output port I selected in the 
gnome audio preferences. If I could reset these values to their 
defaults, that would probably solve the problem. Would a complete 
removal of gnome and reinstallation from the ubuntu repository do the 
trick? Seems like overkill to fix such a small problem, but I'm willing 
to do that if it's my only option left.

- All my best,
- Steve
