I've recently installed pulseaudio because skype decided to have a hard
dependency on it.
I am trying to understand how it is supposed to work, since its effects are
not transparent on my system. Sometimes the mixer will show all the various
audio sinks and sources (headphones, PCM, Master, Capture, Mic, etc.) that
good ol' alsa used to show. Other times it will only list:
RV710/730 HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 4000 series] Digital Stereo (HDMI)
Built-in Audio Analog Stereo
Monitor of RV710/730 HDMI Audio [Radeon HD 4000 series] Digital Stereo (HDMI)
Monitor of Built-in Audio Analog Stereo
Built-in Audio Analog Stereo
The problem is that the second headphone jack is always zeroed and muted -
actually it winds down to zero and mutes itself before my eyes if I launch
Skype.
How is this meant to work and why does it switch between different lists?
There may be a pattern to it (i.e. having headphones inserted before booting
the laptop) but I have not yet undertaken any prolonged testing to determine
this.
PS. Occasionally, the mixer gadget will not load/display on my desktop, but
restarting e, or rebooting, will bring it back up.
PPS. I am running alsa-utils-1.0.27.2, pulseaudio-5.0-r2, on kernel-3.12.21
on a gentoo system.
