Re: Re: [Openal-devel] OpenAL Soft 1.10.622 is released!

I have recently upgraded (fresh install) of Fedora 12.  I believe it  
is using PulseAudio 0.9.21.  I have not been able to get OpenAL  
1.10.622 to work with SecondLife (i.e. SLVoice).  Regular, non-OpenAL  
playback and capture work just fine for say, Skype.  So it appears as  
though PulseAudio is functioning correctly.  I read below where Mike  
Dickson seemed to indicate playback worked but capture did not.  I  
have been unsuccessful in getting either to work.  The SL UI allows  
for choosing different backends for capture and playback for voice.   
The only combination that works for me is using ALSA playback AND  
capture which is then handled by PulseAudio.  As Mike stated, this has  
very poor performance.  I cannot choose PulseAudio for playback and  
ALSA on default device for capture.  I have enable extensive logging  
and see no error output and furthermore when I choose PulseAudio as  
the backend SecondLife shows that things are connected but the  
PulseAudio Manager shows no streams active and voice does not work.  I  
wondered if anyone has made progress on getting things functional with  
PulseAudio again?

Thanks,
Tom Porter
