Hello, I am having a bit of a problem with KDE and pulseaudio.
Basically, this is my /etc/asound.conf:
pcm.pulse {
type pulse
}
ctl.pulse {
type pulse
}
pcm.!default {
type pulse
}
ctl.!default {
type pulse
}
pcm.phononpulse {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type pulse
}
hint {
show on
description "PulseAudio"
}
}
The problem is that the two "!default" sections seem to cause segfaults at start on many KDE applications, including Knotify and Amarok, among other applications which use sound. Removing those two blocks fixes the problem, however then any application that doesn't use pulseaudio by default doesn't play audio. I can post the crash report if needed.
I have tried many things, including moving the settings to ~/.asoundrc, disabling real time scheduling of pulseaudio, but nothing seems to fix it. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem, fixed it by installing the phonon-xine package and selecting xine as the default backend in system-settings/multimedia

Thank you very much! It worked perfectly.

I have the same problem, but selecting xine as default backedn doesn't fix anything.
This is what I get when trying to run amarok:
QDBusObjectPath: invalid path ""
Connecting to deprecated signal QDBusConnectionInterface::serviceOwnerChanged(QString,QString,QString)
amarok(2591)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig:
amarok(2591)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig:
amarok(2591)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig:
Calling appendChild() on a null node does nothing.
QGraphicsLinearLayout::removeAt: invalid index 1
<unknown program name>(2590)/: Communication problem with "amarok" , it probably crashed.
Error message was: "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown" : " "The name org.kde.amarok was not provided by any .service files" "
edit:
nvm, fixed it by removing amarok configuration files and restarting it.
