It seems I can't help myself :) Here are the results: - commenting out everything in /usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf: amixer responds fast - removing the mdns references in /etc/nsswitch.conf no change. However, removing "dns" does work. So the bug is likely in libnss_dns, which is part of glibc itself. - removing the search entry in /etc/resolv.conf amixer responds fast
So it seems that the bug is that with a search-domain present in /etc/resolv.conf, the nameserver is always contacted, even when the correct information can be found in /etc/hosts. Removing the search statement is my workaround of choice, I don't think it will have any impact on home users. However, my guess is that /etc/resolv.conf is auto-generated by dhclient. Can anyone confirm that? -- amixer timeout when muting sound card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295136 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
