Hey guys, I'm a newb with this stuff so please bear with me! I know this is one of those problems that I'm gonna smack my forehead about when I get it figured out! I tried to search around but couldn't find anything relevant.

Ok, here is the problem. I can't get volume control to start correctly. When I start gnome the icon has a red X in it and anytime I click on it I get the error:
"No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found."

I installed with the handbook and followed the wiki for the alsa config at http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ALSA_Complete_%28includes_dmix%29. I can get sound in the console and can even play mp3's via mpg321 no problem. I'm kinda at a loss.

Any help would be appreciated, Please let me know any configs you need posted.

Thanks.

That worked! It looks like there was just a problem with the gst-plugins. Running
Code:
emerge gstreamer gst-plugins
ls /usr/portage/media-plugins/ | grep gst-plugins-| while read PLUGIN; do emerge ${PLUGIN}; done
did the trick.

Thank you very much.
