Hi there:
I'm doing a new install of gentoo on a PC desktop that has a USB devices:
Code:
# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 18ec:3399 Arkmicro Technologies Inc.
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 090c:6300 Silicon Motion, Inc. - Taiwan (formerly Feiya Technology Corp.)
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

The problem is that this error with pulseaudio (all in red colour) and sometimes I have to reconnect the webcam:
Code:
journalctl -b | grep pulseaudio

jul 29 16:52:17 localhost pulseaudio[3114]: We were woken up with POLLIN set -- however a subsequent snd_pcm_avail() returned 0 or another value < min_avail.

How can I fix this error?
