nope. still getting this. with a bunch of apps. try a new .asoundrc first. then theres a setting but I forget the file that asks which sink to use. default is pulse before anything else. change it.
try this. ** Attachment added: "alsa config w software pre-amp tweak" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gstreamer0.10/+bug/1178272/+attachment/4671674/+files/.asoundrc -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gstreamer0.10 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1178272 Title: Without pulseaudio, banshee and rhythmbox report "jack server is not running or cannot be started" and do not play Status in banshee package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gstreamer0.10 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in lubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: New Status in rhythmbox package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Lubuntu Raring (13.04). The Lubuntu standard installation comes without jack, and without pulse, just plain alsa. Gstreamer applications (rhythmbox, banshee) used to work fine after installing "ubuntu-restricted-extras", which pulls in the usual gstreamer plugins. On my system, gstreamer applications stopped working. They report: > Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory > Cannot connect to server request channel > jack server is not running or cannot be started Since there is no jack on this system, never was, and is not intended to be there, I cannot understand this message. The applications do not produce sound. This looks like gstreamer tries to start up jackd, regardless whether it is installed or not.
