 |
|
Hi there,
I've skype reinstalled with USE="pulseaudio".
In skype voice I have PulseAudio server (local) on all input\output devices.
But I can't hire the sound of the skype in my headphones.
With mplayer and ffplay I don't use pulseaudio and that works well.
Also I point to reinstall in first, because in first time I was with skype and no pulseaudio.
And anyway can't hire skype sounds in the speakers.
I found the daemon launched after I start the Skype:
| Code: | # ps aux | grep pulse
user 5053 0.0 0.2 267804 3796 ? Sl 12:57 0:00 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
|
And may be I should change something?
in the:
| Code: | # ls /etc/pulse/
client.conf daemon.conf default.pa system.pa
|
|

I suggest you take a look at the pulseaudio article on the wiki: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PulseAudio
Pulseaudio requires (e)udev, consolekit or sytemd, and no user may be part of the audio group, I suggest you check if these conditions are met.

No, I made permissions to everyone write and read to the audio devices.
| Code: | # ls -al /dev/dsp1
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 14, 19 Mar 7 01:43 /dev/dsp1
# ls -al /dev/snd/
total 0
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 260 Mar 7 01:43 .
drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 3680 Mar 7 03:32 ..
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 4 Mar 7 01:43 controlC0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 10 Mar 7 01:43 controlC1
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 3 Mar 7 01:43 hwC0D0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 9 Mar 7 01:43 hwC1D0
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 2 Mar 7 01:43 pcmC0D3p
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 8 Mar 7 01:43 pcmC1D0c
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 7 Mar 7 03:29 pcmC1D0p
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 6 Mar 7 01:43 pcmC1D1c
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 5 Mar 7 01:43 pcmC1D1p
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 1 Mar 7 01:41 seq
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 116, 33 Mar 7 01:41 timer |
and when I do in /etc/pulse/default.pa
| Code: | | load-module module-oss |
or
| Code: | load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0
load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:1,0 |
pulseaudio doesn't start when I run the Skype and I see in skype audio devices Virtual Device instead of PulsAudio server. |

You could try enabling the pulseaudio use flag in make.conf, skype is working fine for me and I have that use flag enable so you could try that. If you want to check what will need to rebuilt before you actually add it to make.conf if you enable that use flag you could run:
| Code: | | USE="pulseaudio" emerge -pauDN @world |

Try to emerge skype without pulseaudio support, maybe skype can use oss by defaults?

| Getting pulseaudio to work with skype was a PITA. If you don't need pulseaudio for anything else, I suggest that you emerge skype with USE="apulse -pulseaudio". |

Oh wow.... this gave me some hope! I had given up on ever using skype again (without a Windows VM or something), because I just could not deal with pulseaudio. What is this apulse? Is it not as troublesome as pulseaudio? I tried emerging as you suggest, but when I check my sound devices, skype still thinks that it is talking to "Pulseaudio server". How do I get this to work?? Advice much appreciated! |

That's how it should be: apulse is a pulseaudio emulation. Umerge pulseaudio to be sure skype is really using apulse.
The only thing you might need is an appropraite .asoundrc if apulse should default to the wrong device. |
