Comment: Ok. Some more investigation yields different results. It appears that firefox is blocking access to the sound device. If I quit firefox and start rhythmbox (or other gstreamer based apps) sound works fine. Also, if I start the sound apps before running firefox, I'm also fine. I'm going to try to find out if it's the gnu flash plugin or what in firefox that's blocking audio for other apps. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
