           Summary: kdemultimedia package breaks sound
           Product: kdemultimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kde-multimedia kde org
        ReportedBy: kavaumail-kde yahoo com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.3)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 
OS:                Linux

A lot of people seem to have problems with the kdemultimedia package breaking the \
alsa sound after installation. See for example <a \
href="http://dot.kde.org/1070894366/1071099818/">this thread</a> or <a \
href="http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2004/05/thallma_91_sndsilence.html">this SuSE \
help page</a>. Since I found no bug report addressing this, I thought I should write \
one.

As for myself, I had a Gentoo installation with the sound working fine, until I \
installed the kdemultimedia package and rebooted. Afterwards the sound was dead, and \
after hours of googling I found that I had to mute the IEC958 channels. I think the \
kdemultimedia package should better not touch those settings if they cause so many \
problems.
