Also having sound problems here
Using
x86-64, KDE and vlc
2.6.23.1-49.fc8
vlc-0.8.6c-9.lvn8.x86_64
kdebase-3.5.8-5.fc8.x86_64
Distorted sound using vlc
Is it vlc, pulseaudio, ALSA, KDE causing the problem ????
At least 4 ways of controlling the volume
kmix - Does not show Master but responds to "Front" with image of a plug
kmix - Slider in Panel shows Microphone and does nothing
pavucontrol - Does things
vlc - Volume slider does things
K-Administration/Sound Card Detection does things too
mplayer does not distort but I much prefer vlc at the moment
kplayer volume control does link to pavucontrol!
Is there anywhere that explains the interaction between all the sound components ?
This is the only real problem I have had with F8 - very good, thanks everyone!!!!
VMware, Icedtea, mozilla-plugin-config, stablemirrors, KDM, KDE, kino (pulseaudio not supported)
realplayer10gold, Flash, Acroread, kmod-nvidia(update kernel hickup)
All working
