Varying problems with sound output in gnome-2-26 Ekiga

Rate this Message:
Trying to get more stable SIP authentifications and/or support for my UVC based webcam, I've recently installed gcc-4.4 from Debian testing (4.3.2 didn't compile it), and compiled ptlib-2.6.2.tar.bz2, opal-3.6.2.tar.bz2, and first tried ekiga-3.2.4.tar.gz but then went with the git "gnome-2-26" branch (because of a compiler error fixed there). This compiled without problems, but the resulting Ekiga would frequently give no sound output when connecting to echo services.
I call sip:500@..., but it seems ekiga.net prohibits too frequent usage of the echo test(?). When re-calling too soon, Ekiga turns the contents of the URL entry field into "pc:udp$ekiga.net:5060" and will never get to show the "Connected .. call duration.." message. But, there is also a problem with sound not playing in many cases where I *do* have a "Connected .. call duration.." message on the screen. The problem does not go away even when waiting between calls (like a minute or so). A sequence of connection initiations by me: sip:500@... -> normal with sound sip:500@... -> stays in pc:udp$ekiga.net:5060, i.e. does not get connection, I click stop sip:441@... -> silent, I click stop sip:441@... -> normal with sound or with only using the diamondcard echo service: sip:441@... -> normal sip:441@... -> silent sip:441@... -> normal sip:441@... -> silent sip:441@... -> silent sip:441@... -> silent But sound problems don't stop here, when I call my Diamondcard number using my mobile, Ekiga will pop up messages (one for each suppressed ring tone or so) even before I try to click on "accept", saying "Error while opening audio output device HDA Intel No incoming sound will be played. The selected audio device was successfully opened but it is impossible to write data to this device. In case it is a pluggable device it may be sufficient to reconnect it. If not, or if it still is not accessible, please check your audio setup. " but in preferences I've set all three audio devices to "HDA Intel (PTLIB/ALSA)". Also sound has always worked without problems on this Laptop, and Ekiga 2.0.12 (from Debian stable) never had this problem. I've then recompiled/reinstalled everything from SVN / Git, with the versions from the stable branches as given below, with the same results. To summarize, there seem to be 3 separate issues, the first is with ekiga.net not accepting frequent calls of the echo service (and Ekiga not showing an error in this case), the second that about half the otherwise seemingly successful echo service connections are silent, the third that the ring tone is never given (but an error message instead). Any suggestion? Thanks, Christian. Details: Lenovo Thinkpad T61, core 2 duo, nvidia.

When re-calling too soon, Ekiga turns the contents of the URL entry field into "pc:udp$ekiga.net:5060" and will never get to show the "Connected .. call duration.." message. This is a known problem and really important. Please be patient. > But, there is also a problem with sound not playing in many cases where I *do* have a "Connected .. call duration.." message on the screen. The problem does not go away even when waiting between calls (like a minute or so). I noticed this problem too: newmessage.wav shows an error (but it works), the others not.

This is showing up in both working and silent calls. I've seen the hint in bug 586104 about disabling codecs I'm not using, but this has not helped. You should indeed remove some unused codecs, try removing more, until you do not see this message: $ grep large output.txt should be empty... -- Eugen _______________________________________________ ekiga-list mailing list ekiga-list@... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list |

I've now switched off all codecs except gsm, since calling Diamondcard showed "GSM-" in the right part of the window pane. This has indeed made the "large" messages disappear; but it doesn't change anything regarding the silency problem.
