More on the same issue, on Feisty: 1) When plugging in the headset there is no automatic recognition, but one can select "USB Audio" from the sound menu.
2) If Rhythmbox is open, and one changes the Sound preferences (to "USB Audio" for example), RhythmBox keeps happily playing through the other sound channel. One needs to quit and relaunch RhythmBox for the changes to apply. 3) If RhytmBox is playing through the headset ("USB Audio") and the laptop is put to sleep (without unplugging the headset), on waking up the laptop RhythmBox plays to the void: it is playing, but sound does not go to any output channel. In this situation, the Sound Preferences list "USB Audio (Not available)" as the selected option, even though there is an option listed as "USB Audio". If one selects it, RhythmBox does not play through it. Again it has to be restarted. In short: USB Audio works well, but the automatic recognition fails miserably in all circumstances. -- sound buttons change the wrong sound output, and general lack of polish in automagic setup and sound preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96198 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
