What to include in sound bug reports

  • In general, always run alsa-info.sh with --no-upload option, and attach the generated file with the bug report. This contains the detailed information of the sound driver.
  • Use the latest version of pulseaudio (PA) packages. The original 11.1 / SLE11 packages are too buggy.
  • There are two volume-control (GUI) programs on GNOME, one for PA and one for ALSA native. The latter is sometimes needed to adjust subtle setups.
