Hi Raymond -- thank you very much for taking the time to look at this. after many hours of fiddling and reading... I finally Uninstalled PulseAudio ...
and now sound works great! not really the correct answer, but at least I finally have a usable system. >> do the stereo HDMI codec really need speaker allocation from your HDMI tv? I don't understand the question... I do often hook up my laptop to a tv, but it was not hooked up when I collected the bug data. The settings you see are default values. Also there is a bug in that the laptop monitor exists twice in the display config, but I don't see how this has a bearing on the problem with sound. ** Attachment added: "xrandr.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1292438/+attachment/4026526/+files/xrandr.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1292438 Title: BETA 14.04 cant connect to PulseAudio server Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: 1) Install Ubuntustudio 64 bit 14.04 Beta 1 (Alpha) Feb 24 2) reboot etc result: Sound system works properly 3) Install all the latest updates as of Mar 14, 3.13.0-17-lowlatency kernel 4) reboot etc result: Sound System no longer works anything that tries to connect to the PulseAudio server, including the Volume Contol, hangs...
