Pulseaudio - No Sound
Posted: Thu Aug 04, 2011 8:13 pm
Hello, I am great having difficulty fixing this issue. I have looked everywhere on Launchpad, Google, and the forums, but there are no solutions. Running Linux Mint Xfce. The loss I am at cannot be comprehended. No solutions and I'm not sure what exactly is wrong. But at least the system is still usable, so I just have to keep trying to figure out what is wrong.
I have tried some things, such as using the file .asoundrc and rebooting the pulseaudio daemon, but nothing is working.
This may have happened when I tried another Display Manager and reinstalled it back again because I was having problems. I think gdm3, not gdm, is installed, so I hope that is the right one.
Here are some important snippets on info that you may need:
