    Re: HOWTO: PulseAudio Fixes & System-Wide Equalizer Support (Hardy Heron)

    OK, so here it is, I'm getting the exact same problem when following the guide. I'll post my steps here, after the download.
    Code:
    francisco@MegalaptopII:~/Desktop$ sudo dpkg -i libasound2_1.0.16-2_amd64.deb 
    [sudo] password for francisco:

    The following packages will be REMOVED:
      flashplugin-nonfree ia32-libs lib32asound2 nspluginwrapper teamspeak-client
      wine
    0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 6 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
    After this operation, 173MB disk space will be freed.
    Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
    I just answered "n" and I'm about to do a fallback just like you indicated.
    Ideas?

    Hummm, something is wrong again.
    When I follow your fallback instructions I get the folowing:
    Code:

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree       
    Reading state information... Done
    Package swh-plugins is not installed, so not removed
    You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
      flashplugin-nonfree: Depends: nspluginwrapper (>= 0.9.91.4-2ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
      lib32asound2: Depends: libasound2 (= 1.0.15-3ubuntu4) but 1.0.16-2 is to be installed
    E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

    This is after the "sudo apt-get update" which goes fine. I just didn't post it because is long and somewhat irrelevant...

    This all worked quite well for me - it's great to have sound in Flash working again without random crashes, and the equalizer tips worked like a charm - my tinny Inspiron E1405 speakers can finally pump out some volume!

    The only bump was with Skype - the ALSA "pulse" device seems to still not work, and I have to continue using the OSS version and padsp like I did before... however, after the tweaks to daemon.conf, the OSS version + padsp no longer has the crackling noises it did before.

    What tweaks are you talking about?

    First of all, you are supposed to install all three packages at once via dpkg, not just libasound2-dev.

    Secondly, these errors are to be expected and the next command, "sudo apt-get install -f" will resolve dependencies (i.e., installing libc6-dev and libc-dev). You need to install all three packages via dpkg before running this, though!

    Note that I have made adjustments to the guide to prevent these (temporary) errors, in case other users get worried.

    Thank you, I ended up figuring that out on my own and should've edited my post to not take anyone's time. Sorry. I do have another question, though, that I hope isn't as obvious as my last. You say "Download the attachment "default.conf.txt" found at the bottom of this post and copy it to /etc/pulse/default.conf:" but the file is actually default.pa.txt. I'm confused.

    You didn't waste anyone's time, in fact you spotted a mistake & it's been fixed, thanks a lot! Just so you know, you're supposed to copy "default.pa.txt" to "/etc/pulse/default.pa".

    Unfortunately the "uninstall" instructions I gave you seem to cause problems on AMD64 systems, I'm on i386 here so I wasn't able to test.

    Also, your final line suggests that you didn't remove libasound2-dev, perhaps you misread my instructions.

    I believe Krimpet was referring to the "optional" step of Part C, which is also necessary for my system, otherwise any OSS applications using "padsp" stutter *extremely*. It's obvious it doesn't happen for everyone, if you take a look at the respective bug reports.
