Hello there!
Wonderful post, I think this is just what I was looking for.
But please please, can you update to the part of the wide-system equalizer?

Radeth & all,

No, this guide will not solve any issues if you’re running Intrepid. I won’t be answering any further posts here, only in the original thread.

Well I just installed Intrepid a few days ago. Everything was running fine (as someone else did I played a movie, listened to music and played youtube videos with all the sound working), but after a few days this doesn’t happen anymore and any sound output gets muted after the first one (I play a movie, then open rhythmbox and youtube and they’re muted) and I noticed pulseaudio doesn’t appear anymore on the process list, it simply doesn’t start when I turn on my pc. Should this guide solve my problem?

Thanks, I now see the link at the end. I did notice that the link was removed from the repository comment, though.

I’ve no problem with this guide being reproduced here - the only problem is that these instructions are subject to change, so some steps may become obsolete or cause problems.

P.S. Intrepid users: none of these steps are necessary. PulseAudio works out-of-the-box by default.

@Psyke83

We clearly mention the reference for the source at the end of the article from start.If you don’t want that please let us know we will change whatever you inform us.

Why did you copy my guide without attributing the source? Those instructions are subject to change, and my original thread is the best place for users to look for answers or support.

where is the system-wide equalizer?

I installed everything as said and flash does now say “Flash 10″. I also removed libflashsupport as you told. Unfortunately I do now have sound in flash OR in pulseaudio. Which means either flash or more or less everything else. How do I tell flash10 to use PA?

I seem to have fixed the segfaulting Firefox by following this thread:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=843012

There are a few more steps on there that they suggest for pulseaudio.

Thanks

it seems nspluginwrapper requires libgtk2.0 2.14.0 to install, which my hardy do not have, any idea how to get the lastest version into repo?

Thank you very much! My problem with Ubuntu and FF3 started when I changed my sound settings as suggested in one of your previous post, which I followed because I did not have sound in my browser when I used another media player. My browser kept crashing anytime I wanted to watch a YT video or play flash games. But now everything is fine.

Thanks again!

Nope sorry, none of those suggestions worked. Also tried the latest flash from the macromedia site, same thing. Any other ideas?

@psypher

If you still having flash problem try the following two commands

sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree

sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-nonfree

The first command will remove the existing flash completely and second one will reinstall flash

@psypher246

try to install the following package and check if it works or not

libflashsupport

Hello,

So since I’ve made the changes sound is working great. I can listen to music with banshee, play a movie with totem and watch a video on youtube all at the same time and hear all the sounds at the same time. Noisy, yet it works .

BUT
Now some flash sites actually cause FF to crash and segfault. This seems to be due to performing the suggested:
“sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree”
I installed this because those sites that make FF crash don’t show the flash without it. the site only crashes a few seconds into rendering it.

What the problem, how do i fix it?

Thanks
