[16:57] <Guest88690> oh bummer
[17:22] <kortalh> Does anyone know if there's a way to make the Mate Dock applet only show unpinned icons showing on the current workspace/monitor? There is a "Workspaces" option in its settings that sounds like it *should* do this, but it doesn't seem to work... I'm on Mate 16.10 with Dock 0.75.
[17:48] <faufa> helo
[20:43] <mate|94138> Would welcome any insight on how to connect sound to my system. I am using a viewsonic VX2245 connected with DVI./Hdmi. Don't know if a new monitor using hdmi on both ends would solve the problem or not. Any thoughts/ Comments?
[20:44] <mate|94138> Add to the above comment: My computer is the Intel NUC 3217IYE
[20:44] <Akuli> you want to use the screen's sound?
[20:44] <Akuli> i mean speakers
[20:45] <mate|94138> At this point I would accept to tin cans joined by a piece of string.
[20:45] <Akuli> ok
[20:45] <Akuli> got it
[20:46] <Akuli> if you can't get hdmi sound working you can get an old pair of computer speakers somewhere, people often have them hanging around
[20:47] <mate|94138> Didn't mean to be flip, but I've battled this thing every way I know how. I have a set of good speakers that have worked will but there does not appear to be a way to extract the sound signal from the NIC. There is no audio output jack post.
[20:50] <Akuli> what do you have in your sound settings?
[20:50] <Akuli> system -> preferences -> sound
[20:51] <mate|94138> I don't know if such a thing exists, but an adapter HDMI plug modified to pass thru the audio to an output 3.5mm jack "female" might work.
[20:52] <Akuli> wait, your computer doesn't have a 3.5mm thingy?
[20:54] <mate|94138> No..That's a peculiarity of the Intel NUC mini-computers. Apparently the audio is digitally passed thru the HDMI cable.
[20:54] <Akuli> that's awesome
[20:55] <Akuli> such thing probably doesn't exist, and if it does it's going to be expensive because it needs to convert from digital to analog audio :(
[20:56] <Akuli> maybe someone has an old computer with a sound card that fits your computer?
[20:56] <Akuli> or are you on a laptop?

[20:57] <Akuli> mate|94138, you know what
[20:57] <mate|94138> I suspected as much. I wonder if the new monitors have an HDMI port as opposed to just the DVI connection port.
[20:57] <Akuli> mate|94138, https://www.thinkpenguin.com/files/sound-adapter_0.jpg
[20:57] <Akuli> i have one of those
[20:57] <Akuli> (well a similar thing)
[20:57] <Akuli> and its awesome
[20:57] <Akuli> plug n listen :)
[20:59] <mate|94138> Akuli, thats a USB, but it might works as well. I'll see if amazon can get me one on the way. THanks
[20:59] <Akuli> yes it is usb
[20:59] <Akuli> these things are great, they are cheap and you can be 100% sure its gonna work
[20:59] <Akuli> of course, buy one that doesn't come with a windows driver cd :)
[21:00] <mate|94138> Wonderful!!..I'm ON it..Bye for now...
