Hello,
I’ve installed the KDE desktop environment on OpenBSD, but after logging into
KDE, there is no sound, and the system reports “No audio devices found.”
I’ve already verified the following:
The sndiod daemon is running and enabled at boot (rcctl enable sndiod);
My user account is a member of the _sndio group, and I’ve relogged in;
Audio works fine from the terminal (e.g., aucat -i
/usr/share/misc/au/chimes.au);
I’m using official pre-built packages installed via pkg_add (including KDE
and Qt5).
However, KDE’s System Settings > Sound still shows no audio devices, and many
KDE applications (e.g., Dolphin, Kaffeine) cannot produce sound.
Do I need additional configuration to make Qt/KDE use sndio? Or is this a known
compatibility issue?
Thank you for any advice!
Best regards,
