[gentoo-user] rhythmbox plays silently
Good evening! I've got a problem with media-sound/rhythmbox-0.11.2-r1 on my new ~x86 system. When I play an MP3 file, I see that rb progresses and when I turn on visualization, I see the sound. But I hear nothing at all :/ Any ideas about why that's so? The volume slider in rb is all the way up. Also all the sliders in the mixer are all up. And when I use a different player, like Amarok, VLC or MPlayer, I hear sound when I play the song that's silent in Rhythmbox. This happens with all the songs I tried. Well - what to do? Thanks, Michael -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Thanks, Michael Do you play sound with something else before running rhythmbox? What happens when you run rhythmbox after restarting alsa? Also does rhythmbox use alsa or oss? -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Don't use rhythmbox. Don't use Gnome. Do use KDE. Do use Amarok. Do use mplayer. *especially* do use mplayer. I know this isn't what you want to hear. I just couldn't resist an open invitation to dig at Gnome. I'll crawl back into my KDE and e17 fanboy clubhouse and shut up now. -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
