Okay. Don't know what the "default" is about. I can play sound on my computer, like youtube videos with sound. I can record sound through my USB microphone with the audacity sound editor. The problem is that some programs either won't work at all with sound or require that you close ALL other programs before they will work with sound. I have a friend with Ubuntu who has these same problems, who uses a different computer to me.
I eventually found the "Fusion.ini" file hidden in my "Home" folder and learnt that you have to press ctrl and h to see some folders, also had to manually select "gedit" so I could open this file. A little bamboozled, but I'm still learning Linux and it's still not as familiar to me, who's used Windows for years. I don't know where to type the words "ALSA" and "pulse" in the "Fusion.ini" file. In fact, Kega Fusion works fine if all other programs are closed before I run it. In the Kega Fusion "Options" menu, if you tick "Sleep While Waiting" the program works fine AND it runs faster - the sound works as long as no other programs are running. Below I have copied the sound section of that .ini file (I've NOT made any edits to the .ini file and the "SoundDisabled=1" is irrelevant, as you can enable the sound in Kega Fusion itself AFTER you close ALL other programs first - yes I've tried changing "SoundDisabled=1" to zero, but it makes no difference - you still have to close ALL other programs first): ;--------------------------------- ; Sound Options ;--------------------------------- ALSADeviceName=plughw OSSDeviceName=/dev/dsp UsingALSA=1 libmpg123path=/usr/local/lib/libmpg123.so CurrentWaveFormat=1 SoundOverdrive=0 SoundSuperHQ=0 SoundDisabled=1 SoundFilter=0 -- 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
