Volume control and sound missing from Totem. All other video/music players work
fine.
running gstreamer-properties and setting the devices to autodetect did
not help in my case. what did help was to delete the file ~/.pulse-cooke
and the directory ./~pulse.
after all it seems this problem was pulse related. (rhythmbox stopped
working, so i really had to fix this bug. and totem
The totem issue is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody

After doing several more searches I found this website (it's a RedHat
support forum): https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449268
A user on it had similar problems with sound, but only with certain
video formats (Flash). This suggestion was made:

Bug still present.
Tested using sux with guest and root and both produce sound and video
properly, although various errors occur during movie player startup
(included below). Using sux with my own account produced the same lack
of sound as starting totem normally.

ok so it wasn't a totem issue, rather a permissions on the account,
closing the report, thanks.

Wait. It's still a Totem issue because I don't know what to change on my
account to make Totem play sound.
People in other forums have said to add the user account to the audio
group and I already was a member of audio. I checked all the same
permissions checkboxes in the account window. Nothing

A little bit more information for you... I can play sound from Totem if
I use sudo totem /file/location from the terminal. This tells me that
it's definitely a user permission issue with my account. I checked which
groups I'm a member of and here's the list:
adm dialout cdrom audio video plugdev
do you get the same issue in a guest session?

Amazing, no it doesn't happen in a guest session. So, that leads me to
the question, how do I erase the configuration data for my user
account's Totem setup so it'll rebuild it properly?
Thanks a lot for your kind support too.

Rhythmbox works fine and tests in gstreamer-properties using ALSA and
PulseAudio output also work. It seems no other application has a problem
except Totem. This also affects Firefox though since it uses Totem for
playing mp3.
Maybe there's something else I can do? Wipe out Totem and reinstall it
do you still get the issue?

Yeah. I just switched the default playback device to VLC and MPlayer
where available. VLC seems to work better than MPlayer to read malformed
files, but I like the players to be self contained and not open up 2
windows, like the control window and the playback window. This is why
Totem is nice,
Can you play sound using other gstreamer applications, rhythmbox for
example? Does changing the sound options in gstreamer-properties makes a
difference?

I'll check later, unless I can figure out how to stream sound over
TightVNC to my work computer. Thanks for the suggestions!

Sorry, forgot to add that I uninstalled Movie Player and completely
removed Movie Player (gstreamer), which is Totem, then reinstalled Totem
hoping that the config files were just messed up, but no luck. I'll try
your other suggestions though.

Without another system with similar hardware it's uncertain if it's a
problem with drivers or with software. Since I've seen no other mention
of a problem like this I would guess that it has something to do with a
software setting, software bug, or driver (it could be PEBKAC).
