Pulseaudio configuration issue
Hi all,
"if your sound card doesn't have several hardware channes for mixing, then only one application can use it at a time -- the first one wins.
you can set up pulseaudio or dmixer to solve that"
That was a friendly answer when i ask that sometimes when i boot my computer have sound and others no.
I downloaded pulseaudio but i dont know how to configure it to solve the sound problem.
Can anyone point me to right documentation or give some simple instructions to archive it?
Thanks,

I believe that PulseAudio is included in the latest Xubuntu. You might consider upgrading to it (Hardy Heron/8.04) as it will probably be easier than installing Pulse from scratch.

Bigtomrodney,
When i said i download it i mean that i successfully downloaded and installed it with synaptic.
What i dont know is how to configure it so i can make the sound play at my distro whatever time i boot.
