Do other audio applications still work? It looks like your alsa devices have disappeared for some reason. Did you perhaps suspend or hibernate the machine? -- CJ van den Berg mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I rebooted my machine to (an old desktop) and still have the same problem. Then I moved /usr/lib/pulse-0.9/modules/module-hal-detect.so to /tmp and pulseaudio starts again. I guess what I lost through that is that pulseaudio detects when I plug in my USB headset. Anyway, seems more a hal problem than a pulseaudio-module-hal, no?
