No sound in Fedora 10

[zyguli]

Sound in my Fedora 10 works no more. I haven't installed anything, I have the auto-update turned on though. I have turned my computer off in the evening, in the morning the sound was gone.

The volume control icon in notification area has got a red crossed out mark on it.

When clicking it once I get this message:

"The volume control did not find any item and / or control devices. This means that they are not the appropriate GStreamer plugin or sound card is not configured."


When twice:

"No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found."

When I try to test the sound in the system, I get this error:

"audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect: Connection refused".

I don't use pulse-audio.

Please, help.

I didn't lose my sound, but lost some sound volume with FC10 on a ThinkPad T61. If I get any sort of help that may be of value to you, I'll post it here.

zyguli,
If you ever get an answer post it here as well, I have the exact same thing but with Fedora 9, I could not get Fedora 10 to work with the video on this computer so I had to stick with 9. My sound has the exact same issue as you have.

I've also lost my sound on Fedora 10 x86_64 (some 2 kernels update ago)

I've folowed the mentioned tutorial but when running $pulseaudio -k I get
$ pulseaudio -k
I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE.
I: caps.c: Dropping root privileges.
I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE.
N: main.c: Called SUID root and real-time and/or high-priority scheduling was requested in the configuration. However, we lack the necessary privileges:
N: main.c: We are not in group 'pulse-rt', PolicyKit refuse to grant us the requested privileges and we have no increase RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits.
N: main.c: For enabling real-time/high-priority scheduling please acquire the appropriate PolicyKit privileges, or become a member of 'pulse-rt', or increase the RLIMIT_NICE/RLIMIT_RTPRIO resource limits for this user.


I've added my user to pulse-rt group, but the error remained and still no sound.
From what I've read, there's a kernel version in koji ( -130 ) that fixes this sound problem!?!

L.e: In Pulse Audio Volume Control I can see the sound bar moving but no sounds are aired.
