You have both a soundcard on your motherboard (Realtek ALC888) and a USB soundcard. Which one are you using for record and playback?
Also your USB soundcard has the name "default"...could that be interfering with something? Can you please open a terminal (Program menu -> Accessories -> Terminal), enter this command "apport-collect 512612" (without the quotes) and press Enter. Thanks! As for your question about sound systems, in the standard configration ALSA is a low-level sound driver and PulseAudio is a sound server which, among other things, mixes sound from all apps together and gives the result to ALSA which then talks to your soundcard. OSS is not used at all (in the standard Ubuntu configration). This is a simplification, in reality there are many parts of ALSA, among these there is a frontend for applications to talk to. This frontend can send things via PulseAudio, and should be configured to do so by default. If you think that was complicated, have a look at slide five of this presentation: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~dtchen/UDS- Barcelona/Audio_Madness.odp ** Changed in: alsa-driver (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Incomplete -- Sound problems. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512612 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
