sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound

What repo is that from? I'm not showing anything in Synaptic...

EDIT: I found it in Squeeze, but it's only available for i386. I'm using 64-bit hmm

Are you using ALSA, PulseAudio, or something else? Also, I found the package in sid (although it's still only for i386).

I'm using ALSA.

Then you honestly should not need that extrasound package. Try running your browser from the command-line and see if there are any errors.

I should've thought of that roll

This is weird - I get the exact same errors (Chromium, right?), but my Flash audio works just fine (I'm using PulseAudio though, so...). This is right after starting the browser, right? How about when you play a Flash video?

OK - ran Google Chrome from the terminal (although I also have no sound in Firefox hmm ), and then hit a YouTube video:

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1018:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave

Wait...do you have a media player or something open in the background? That could be causing the problem.

safetycopy · 2011-10-25 01:53:34

No, nothing else running...

chaanakya · 2011-10-25 01:54:30

Have you tried using PulseAudio or something?

safetycopy · 2011-10-25 01:56:55

No, I haven't yet. You think maybe I should?

chaanakya · 2011-10-25 01:58:17

Yup! It might make your problem go away wink

safetycopy · 2011-10-25 02:02:03

OK, cheers for the advice - I'll add that to my to-do list smile

chaanakya · 2011-10-25 02:02:55

heh okay big_smile Let me know if it doesn't work...
