Maybe. But I see /opt/trinity/artsd running via htop. No hint of phonon in that 171 item list. But I see iceweasal went on a binge and cooked the cpu all night. Thats another pet peeve. If I click the quit dot, the SOB should quit clean. About 10% of the time it doesn't. Buggier than a 10 day old carcass. But I can point that same finger and sharpen it like a schoolchild at firefox if it was installed. My hearings direction finder isn't as good as it was even 20 years ago, and it was just last night that I discovered the kmail beep isn't mono on center, its either the pc's own speaker, or right channel only, and I strongly suspect its the pc's own speaker that is making the incoming mail beep. From where I sit, the direction of the right speaker and the pc's speaker are in line but one is on the table and one is under the table. That beep does not seem to be subject to the keyboard volume control to the extent it effects the main sound. That clue I'd throw it at the pc's speaker, however I just turn it down to 50%, a good 30 db down just to check that theory. It should have lowered the beep to inaudible, but its the same. So that has got to be the pc's speaker. > > You don't mention it, Gene, but what about pulseaudio itself? > > he's not running the pulse server, he said. :) Ric > Correct. Thanks all.
