Mint 9 Audio trouble with VLC
When I watch a video with VLC, it is start off ok but then a couple seconds after the sounds cuts out completely,
Then I go in Audio and change the audio channel to 'Reverse stereo" and the sound will come back only for a few seconds, then I will change then channel again and then the sound will work only for a few seconds.
What is this? Can you remove PulseAudio from the package manager or the terminal? Is it possible in Mint?
I have done some searching but everything is coming up for Mint 8 and I am on Mint 9
Any ideas please?
Thank you

Just curious, does sound work pretty good in other applications?

It sounds like maybe the system does not have sound properly set up.
Can you post the output of
Code:lspci -k |grep -i Audio

How many sound cards do you have?? It looks like 3 devices to me.

It does show 3 under sound preferences. I have disabled 2 of then leaving only the sound blaster, set to 5.1 as my set up is ( I think

I assume you have tried to use the other soundcards to no avail?

yes, I have been playing around with the settings to see what happens. Even within VLC I have been trying different setting. I just tried turning off the SB cards and using the RV710 and I get no sound at all.
Could it be a VLC problem?
