Hi, All OLPC OS releases including 8.2.1 have an annoying issue, where activities can trash sound mixer settings. The result is that all Sugar activities lose the ability to play sound (they are muted) and sugar's volume control does not fix it. And unfortunately this becomes a very common issue in deployments. Speak, Measure and/or Adobe Flash are my key suspects in messing with sound levels.
Anyway, I've written an activity that restores the PCM mixer, which acts as a workaround for this bug. Simply run the FixSound activity every time you lose sound. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/FixSound The OS images being deployed in Paraguay and Nepal already have this bug fixed, and it is also fixed in the F11-for-XO1 builds that will hopefully reach deployment readiness in the not too distant future.
