[Bug 462877] [NEW] No sound - no help

[Harald Eiermann]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: amarok

Well, there are similar problems around, i.e. I hear no music although
pressing the test button in sound system configuration gives me the
sounds.

So the bug, IMHO, is maybe not that there is a missconfiguration.
The bug is that I have no opportunity to see why. 
Does it try to connect to the pulse audio server or are there missing rights to access /dev/dsp - nothing.


The error message which appears sometimes and saying something like "Too many errors in playlist ..." (well, I get it in german) is not really helpful, to tell the truth, it is not helpful at all.

So IMHO this is a serious bug of the usability.

BTW, I use Ubuntu 9.10
