Phonon settings show only default oss device

[shurik]

Hi, community

The only way to change sound output is to adjust hw.snd.default_unit tunable. This situation occurs when using both phonon-vlc or phonon-gstreamer. KMix, ossinfo and pacmd shows all audio cards correctly. Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?

VLC uses the device in the environment variable OSS_AUDIODEV if available. Maybe this works with multimedia/phonon-vlc too?

I have not this variable defined. But move to phonon-gstreamer does not solve an issue too.

Ok. So, is there any way to play audio in audio/amarok-kde4 via another output?

Try to rebuild

/usr/ports/x11/kde4-runtime/
with PulseAudio support

and

/usr/ports/x11/kdelibs4/
after that

I'm using packages and PulseAudio support disabled by default in x11/kde4-runtime. I rebuild it from ports, but but nothing happened...

You should rebuild not only x11/kde4-runtime but the x11/kdelibs4, the multimedia/phonon and multimedia/vlc-qt4 with PulseAudio support too
