[Bug 1734503] Re: In Xfce, Gnome3, Ubuntu Studio, and Mate Desktop the pulse audio gui application is corrupted, I can't switch outputs.
I've been Running default flavor of Ubuntu since 12/22 without issue; still version 16.04.3. I didn't switch to 17 or 18 because I use my machine for my work, and I do like to run the most stable version. I've realized that Ubuntu doesn't run simulated 7.1 surround sound well. I got it working a few years ago with another headset so I thought I could replicate the same solution with my Astro A40's. It just didn't work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1734503 Title: In Xfce, Gnome3, Ubuntu Studio, and Mate Desktop the pulse audio gui application is corrupted, I can't switch outputs.

I may have to, because it's even registering output changes on a reinstall. I reedited those pulse audio files to change the number of speakers, but that didn't help either, so I did a reinstall. I usually try to avoid that.

Your system is logging a couple of issues repeatedly: Nov 25 15:00:52 username-desktop pulseaudio[2489]: [pulseaudio] alsa- mixer.c: Volume element Speaker has 8 channels. That's too much! I can't handle that! and Nov 25 15:12:09 username-desktop pulseaudio[3489]: [pulseaudio] shm.c: shm_open() failed: No such file or directory Bug 1652505 mentions that second one too. In that case the solution was to get a newer version of PulseAudio. Can you try Ubuntu 17.10 or 18.04 by any chance? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1734503 Title: In Xfce, Gnome3, Ubuntu Studio, and Mate Desktop the pulse audio gui application is corrupted, I can't switch outputs.

I took all the other DE's from my system, I think a lot of the problems stemmed from running KDE Plasma from a backport. It pretty much conflicted with every DE theme except cinnamon. There where still some problems even after I removed it, but at least cinnamon works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1734503 Title: In Xfce, Gnome3, Ubuntu Studio, and Mate Desktop the pulse audio gui application is corrupted, I can't switch outputs.
