    Re: URGENT!!NO SOUND ON FIREFOX!!!HELP!

    If I remember correctly - my memory is a little fuzzy on what I did to fix the issue - I removed some pulseaudio packages and added them back again. It was a lot easier in the 9.10 release candidate I started testing last week. I installed flashplugin-nonfree and started Firefox.

        Did you also try flashplugin-installer?

        I've started thinking that my sound problem was the same (i.e. no sound firefox, but sound in Amarok instead of both no sound). That might mean that some repair work on ALSA/Pulseaudio/Phonon could do the trick, despite my earlier statement that it should not.

        If you have a standard Kubuntu installation, you are now using Phonon. I think eventually I installed pulseaudio and selected it in System settings. If that does not work straight away, your problem might be that pulseaudio has not started, see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1055591

        Alternatively, you could try if everything is working for you on 9.10 (you can burn a LiveCD; if you upgrade, remember always to backup your data and preferrably wait some days to check whether many people have problems after updating).
        Once your problem is solved please edit the first post of your topic and add [SOLVED] in front of the subject. In that way, others can benefit from your experience!

            A trick I try that works on occasion is delete the hidden sound folders in your home directory. You might find folders named .alsa or .pulse. Delete them and reboot, it might help. In the past I have purged the sound packages and re-installed them after sound problems surfaced. That usually works for me unless the issue is driver related.

              This is likely a pulseaudio configuration problem. See:

                  To find out if your driver is loaded:
                  Code:
                  cat /proc/asound/modules
                  To find out if pulseaudio is loaded:
                  Code:
                  ps aux | grep pulseaudio
                  If pulseaudio is not loaded, try starting it from a konsole, and see if it gives you errors:
                  Code:
                  pulseaudio --start

                    kira@Kiraitachi:~$ cat /proc/asound/modules
                    0 snd_hda_intel
                    kira@Kiraitachi:~$ ps aux | grep pulseaudio
                    kira 2499 0.4 0.2 94924 4312 ? Ssl 23:05 0:00 pulseaudio --start
                    kira 2549 0.0 0.0 3036 792 pts/1 S+ 23:09 0:00 grep pulseaudio

                      OK, looks like your sound card driver is loaded, and you have PA up and running.
                      Start the application pavucontrol.

                      In the Configuration tab, see if your sound device is listed. If so, in the drop box under it, select what type of audio you are using. On my system, I selected 'Analog Stereo Duplex".

                      In the Output Devices tab, you need to tell PA where to send the audio -- headphones, or whatever. In my setups, it's "Analog Output".

                      Now, with pavucontrol still open, open KMix. Make sure you have a channel for PCM -- you may have to add this from settings > configure channels. The PCM channel has a blue squiggly line at the top. Make sure it is not muted, and set for full volume.

                      Back pavucontrol, now select the Playback tab. Start whatever application you are using to play sound. A cahnnel should appear in pavucontrol for that application. If you don't see it, make sure the Show box at the lower right says All Streams. Depending on the application, you may have to set it to use pulseaudio.

                      Start playing some music. You should see the channel in Playback, and there should be an indication on the volume meter. You may need to tell the application, in the Playback tab, to send its audio to the device you set up in the Output Devices tab.

                      See how this goes; if it doesn't work, let us know which step isn't working.
