Hi;
This probably more of a frustration question than an eventually solving it myself question.
I couldn't get any sound -- I originally thought it was an Adobe Flash problem -- until I changed SELinux from enforcing to permissive. How do I make sound available to the user while still using SELinux enforcing?

Check the /var/log/audit/audit.log file for AVC messages.
Is this F10?

I couldn't see anything pertinent; but that doesn't mean much. I have never used the audit.log before. I could be looking at something and not seeing it.
Is this F10?
Yes. See under my signature. I keep my program versions there for the main mailing lists I belong to.

Somehow my 'Front' channel?? in Alsa mixer gui got turned off. By trial and error I learnt that if I fully turned on the volume for 'Front' I got my sound back. Why SELinux enforcing also affected it is still leaves me at a loss.
New thread to follow.

SELinux may have played a part. There may have been an AVC denial from SELinux when it tried to access the alsa config file to save the configuration. Did you check /var/log/audit/audit.log to see if there were any denials regarding audio? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer ricks@nerd.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from a - - rigged demo. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
