If you are unable to see the beep in kmix
When did the beep show up in kmix ? I'm sure I checked for it when
this all started, but now its there in mine. I muted it and now all is
well ! No more beeps.
The beep volume was set to zero before I muted it. Apparently that
didn't make it quiet.
you will need to configure channels
and select it. If you do not see the option, it means that the kde multimedia
system is configured to work with phonon and not alsa.
I do not remember where to configure this in the kde settings. Kevin Koffler
pointed this one out to me and is documented at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/KDE_PulseAudio_Integration
At the bottom there is the section called "Release Notes" and there you will
find the following information. Of course, you will have to logoff and back on
to your KDE session to be able to see the change.
Users of KMix will notice that most of their hardware sound controls are no
longer shown in the default (PulseAudio-based) interface. To get access to
these controls, close KMix (use right-click / quit) and restart it by running
KMIX_PULSEAUDIO_DISABLE=1 kmix in a Konsole terminal. To make this change
permanent, add export KMIX_PULSEAUDIO_DISABLE=1 to your ~/.bashrc file.
Great post ! Thanks for taking the time to do this. Much appreciated.
