 Posted: Sat Dec 07, 2013 10:05 am Post subject: Sound cuts out on everything [SOLVED] |
 |
|
Edit: Was a hardware fault that just happened to happen at the same time as I did a major system update. New headphones are working fine.
<embarrassed>
Old post:
I have no idea what's causeing this, I did a system update, and now whenever I use an application that both records and outputs sound (anything with mic support, basically) my output volume cuts to almost nothing randomly.
Since it works at normal volume for a while, then at almost no volume for a while, then back to normal volume again, I can't just turn my output volume up, as that kills my ears when it goes back to normal again.
What information do people need to help me fix this. I am at a complete loss, and can't play with my friends until I fix this, as we rely on voice comms.
I have tried both with and without pulseaudio, and both have this issue.

Just had a thought about this:
Is there any way, without having another pair of headphones, to test if this is an issue with my headphones, rather than my sound software?
Did a short test today, and I don't seem to get the cuts in volume out of my speakers, but I do with my headphones.
Any ideas other than "borrow a pair of headphones"? |
