Heh Eugene!
Mark I am using the latest 1.43. on one computer it will not make any sounds and on the other it just quits after 26 seconds. No error messages and unimix -card is the same.PMuimix is fine too.
Downloaded v1.43 and have been playing it for about 10 minutes no problem. (AC/DC Hells Bells - love that song!)
However reading the changes in v1.43 in the Warpin file I did note this:
- you can now mute audio via playback menu, hotkeys or a uPnP client.
I had a look at the playback menu and there is a Mute setting at the bottom. Ypu might want to see if for some reason it enabled itself (you know some programs now have a mind of their own <sic>)
Also you might want to have a look at unimix -names
If there is an id for "Auto-Mute" present for your sound card or chipset, you might want to try to disable that:
unimix -idx -val0=0 where "x" is the ID of the Auto-Mute switch - I'm assuming your sound adapter is 0.
The Auto-Mute issue might have crept in to affect other chipsets this time around with the Linux 6 tree.
As to sound cutting out - have not encountered it here with v1.43, at least so far, so not sure what may be a problem there.
Best!
