I recently updated my sid box to all the latest stuff for the first time in a month or two, which got me from Gnome 2.4 to 2.6. Once I discovered that I had to kill the old services like gconf (which doesn't happen normally when you log out) it seems fine.
Except one thing: the volume control applet on the panel doesn't work. It won't find any of the channels; like it can't find the audio devices. But, they're there! I've tried removing it from the panel and re-adding it and it still doesn't work; if I try to open the volume control dialog it fails because there are no channels, and if I open the Preferences dialog there are no channels shown in the box (it's empty). On the other hand, the modules are loaded (I'm using ALSA), and I can play sound just fine through various apps, including the Desktop Preferences -> Sound applet: I can select the "Sound Events" tab and play the sample sounds just fine. Anyone have any ideas on where to look? Thanks! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
