    No USB sound in VLC after upgrade

    I use external USB speakers. After upgrade to Karmic I have in VLC no sound from them.
    Details:
    - Netbook Acer Aspire One D-150, but I don't think it matters
    - PCM active from the time of Jaunty
    - System settings Multimedia: USB sound is first and test sound is OK.
    - Sound Settings in VLC: OSS sound /dev/dsp1
    - There is actually some sound from USB speakers - about once in 5 sec lasting for about 1/10 sec
    - Immediately after saving OSS sound settings in VLC I can enjoy a sound for the whole second and then someting strangulates it.
    - With default sound settings in VLC there is a normal sound from internal speakers.
    - I have normal USB sound in Kaffeine and in Dragon.
    - I cannot use Kaffeine, because they removed subtitles support from it in the new version.

    I hope it will solve some setting in VLC, but I think it looks more like a new bug in the new version of VLC or KDE.

    Workaround: Use speakers with 3,5 mm jack.
    Kubuntu 16.04 on two computers and Kubuntu 17.04 on DELL Latitude 13
Working...
