And it gets even a little more nutty, if you have let gtk3 into your mix.

If it works as root, and not as a normal user, then you should check through those things.

I just figured out the Pulse problem. I had an old .asoundrc from when I was trying to configure Pulse. The old problem remains, however. I can now launch alsamixer from my normal user, but I'm not getting sound from desktop applications Joe From: jschilli1@live.com To: crux@lists.crux.nu Subject: Sound problems with Xonar DG Date: Mon, 5 Jan 2015 19:26:45 -0600 #yiv4468586524 --.yiv4468586524ExternalClass .yiv4468586524ecxhmmessage P {padding:0px;}#yiv4468586524 .yiv4468586524ExternalClass body.yiv4468586524ecxhmmessage {font-size:12pt;font-family:Calibri;}#yiv4468586524 Hello, I've installed a custom kernel (3.18.1) with the ck patch and support for my hardware (including snd_oxygen for my sound card) but I'm not getting any sound output. I've tried running alsamixer, it fails with: ALSA lib dlmisc.c:252:(snd_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_pulse.so cannot open mixer: No such device or address I'd previously tried using Pulseaudio to fix what I presume was a completely different problem, but have since removed it. Alsamixer will run as root (my user is in the audio group, however), and when I turn on the Analog Input Monitor I can hear the microphone. So, I'm presuming the sound card is working, I just can't get it to output normally. What would be the problem? Is it worth trying to get Pulse to work? How can I fix that Pulse-related error message if it isn't? lsmod shows that snd_oxygen is in fact installed. lspci | grep Audio says the Oxygen card is found.
