The problem is that that or I increase sound volume so I can hear Skype sounds and fookb-wmaker become very loud, or I decrease it but then I can't hear Skype sounds. >> I have one more problem related to sound.

It might be possible to > play .ogg files with aplay - but I'd have to look up the proper settings. Newer mind, with the command canberra-gtk-play -f Szervusz.ogg I can play ogg files. It seems that that canberra-gtk-play uses PulseAudio server. However when I play the same sound from the ogg file, it is very quiet, but when I play the same sound from the wav file with the command aplay Szervusz.wav the sound is louder and can be heared without pricking the ears. I think a that that in this case aplay doesn't use PulseAudio server, right? So I must thinking that that on my operating system I have at least two sound server, on is PulseAudio and what is tha other? -- Regards from Pal -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
