#26 Other Issues » Bash does not parse config files like bash_profile correctly. » 2020-11-04 11:30:50

According to https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/ … rtup-Files
"When Bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-interactive shell with the --login option, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable."
I have no .bash_profile or .bash_login. I only have ,profile (and also .bashrc which *does* get parsed for different reasons) however I am finding that bash does not source this file when started.
Perhaps I should file this somewhere as a bug?
Cheers

Thanks. I tried out both options but volumeicon-alsa is much better as it allows my hard buttons to be used.
I just run volumeicon at login time and everything works perfectly.

I just upgraded to Beowulf and found that /sbin is not on the system path for root.
This is surely a bug?
It means you cannot run fdisk etc.
#30 Desktop and Multimedia » KDE mixer doesn't display devices after upgrade to Beowulf [SOLVED] » 2020-06-08 12:05:41

I've just upgraded to Beowulf. Most stuff is okay, but the sound is broken.
I have to use alsamixer (as root in the console) to adjust volume which is a massive pain. I adjusted the headphone volume up (default is muted) and now I have both speakers and headphone audio working.
BUT, the audio mixer tray icon in KDE just shows the red "-" symbol meaning audio is muted. There are no devices shown when I click on the tray icon. This is clearly a regression compared to Devuan Ascii.
Additionally, none of my volume "hard" buttons on my laptop work.
Now, if I comment out the "autospawn=no" line in /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf as per https://files.devuan.org/devuan_beowulf … _notes.txt I see that my volume buttons now affect the KDE volume widget, however I now have no sound anywhere. alsamixer shows only one device which is the dummy mixer. The KDE mixer now shows a "dummy mixer" as my device.
I'm using a pretty common old Lenovo laptop so I'm sure other people must be seeing this too.
Anyone have any tips to make the tray icon allow me to change the audio volume in KDE? Thanks.
#31 Desktop and Multimedia » Bluetooth audio - connects to device, but no audio output » 2020-04-23 08:33:07

I'm using KDE and have been trying to play audio from a Bluetooth speaker I bought. It's nothing swanky.
I have successfully connected to the device over Bluetooth however I cannot play any audio out of it. I've attached some screenshots... please let me know if I need to supply further information.
I have tested the Bluetooth speaker using my phone and it plays back fine using that.
Any help gratefully received. Thanks.
