I am using the Logitech G930 Gaming Headset
on Mageai
with the KDE
desktop environment. Within Chromium I am unable to hear any sounds; the volume button indicates noise when I manually adjust the sound and I can hear that without a problem.
This is some sort of browser issue as I have tested Firefox
,Konqueror
and Links GUI
all resulting in the same outcome of no sound. I have performed the following:
- Made the G930 the master channel on the Volume Control
- Gone into
Volume Control
and ensured that the output device for my headset is not muted (I can hear the tests perfect) - Ran
alsamixer
and ensured no channels were muted.
The next step would be to confirm Flash Player
was installed and operating. I have installed the latest version and ensured all works with a reboot. Upon reboot I attempted to run alsamixer
again and received the following error message:
Failed to create secure directory (/run/user/1000/pulse):
Permission denied
ALSA lib pulse.c:243:(pulse_connect) PulseAudio: Unable to connect:
Connection refused
Cannot open mixer: Connection refused
I am not entirely sure how to correct this issue, but will do some investigating. Are there any other avenues I can follow up to try and understand why Google Chrome/Chromium is not playing audio?
Update 1 I have attempted to use standard headphones (and not USB connected) and they work without an issue. I am unsure if there are any special setups needed for a USB connection?
