[RE: Unsolved] Out of ideas - Sound problem

My dog chewed up my old wired dynex usb headset, so I bought a Logitech Wireless H600 headset and now am having sound problems.

Problem: Cannot get sound through Logitech Wireless H600 headset via browser/youtube. I can get sound locally through VLC if I set it to output through alsa - headset. I was also able to get sound through the wired headset.

Attempted fixes: I have tried everything I could think of and everything I found online. I made sure all volume levels in alsamixer/volumeicon were not muted. I set headset as default in ~/.asoundrc and globally through /etc/asound.conf. I tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling alsa. I have edited alsa-base.conf and changed the index for usb audio to -1 and 0. I have tried installing non-free adobe flash player. I have tried other browsers.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Edit: No idea what I did, but it works now.

Re: [RE: Unsolved] Out of ideas - Sound problem

It appears I can get sound through my external speakers through browser/youtube, but not the headset. I don't know any other way to force the headset as default other than what I've already tried.

It works now, not sure how it happened. I did alsactl init and it worked, but that was something I tried before so I'm not sure why it works now. Here's the output anyway in case you see something wrong.

Re: [RE: Unsolved] Out of ideas - Sound problem

I did a little bit of distro hopping and came back to #! and can't get the sound to work again. I've tried everything again (except for completely removing alsa and reinstalling). Still can't get sound via browser through wireless headset. Here's some info again.

Right now I have this in ~/.asoundrc
pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card 1
}

ctl.!default {
    type hw           
    card 1
}

Should I try making changes to /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf?
defaults.ctl.card 0
defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.pcm.device 0

change those to 1?

I just cannot get alsa to make the headset the default.
