[Bug 350790] [NEW] fails to play sound when pulseaudio is running and xine backend is used

[Johannes Rohr]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: miro

This is about miro 2.0.3 in Ubuntu Jaunty.

since I upgraded to jaunty, miro fails to produce any sound output when
the xine backend is used and pulseaudio is running. Other xine based
applications like totem-xine work fine.

I have tried various solutions, including creating a virtual alsa device
"pulse" in asoundrc, using padsp, editing ~/.xine/config, however, to no
avail. miro has no xine config file and offers no command line options
for the xine audio driver.

(At the same time (this would be a separate bug) with gstreamer, miro
fails to create thumbnails for videos and shows only the generic icon.)

When I start a video, miro plays it, but without sound. In paman, I see
"python2-6." in the client list. In Miro, clicking on stop has no
effect, it just continues. When I kill the client in paman, the video
playback stop.

** Affects: miro (Ubuntu)
