[13:13] <xubuntu8w> hi
[14:11] <gnrp> hm, quick question: I added another user to my system, but he doesn't see any sound cards. Is he missing a group?
[14:12] <diogenes_> gnrp, could be, add it to pulse or something, see the available groups here: cut -d: -f1 /etc/group | sort
[14:12] <gnrp> right, there's a group audio, that sounds like a good start^^
[14:12] <diogenes_> then list the groups your user is in: groups
[14:13] <diogenes_> then add it to a specific group like this: sudo usermod -a -G examplegroup exampleusername
[14:13] <diogenes_> then re-log
[14:13] <gnrp> yep, already did (using vigr though)
[14:13] <gnrp> just testing now
[14:16] <gnrp> there is actually this article here, but on my system, I have been in the audio group (and not in pulse) automatically anyway... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/TheAudioGroup
[14:20] <gnrp> hm, anyway, audio was not the group
[14:39] <gnrp> ok, after a restart (not only login/logout) it worked
[14:40] <diogenes_> gnrp, maybe you had 'save session' enabled.
[14:40] <gnrp> diogenes_: The other user was also still logged in, maybe it was that?
[14:40] <gnrp> I also deinstalled jack in the meantime
[14:42] <gnrp> whatever it was, it works now.^^
[14:42] <gnrp> thanks!
[14:42] <diogenes_> yw
[17:52] <renata444> Hey, since I upgraded to 19.10 I cant control my volume from the keyboard anymore. I see the volume animation lower and raise but sound does not change. I have to click the speaker and go into audio mixer settings and go to OUTPUT and then check the save as default check icon. Only then can I control the audio again. But this resets everytime I
[17:52] <renata444> restart my computer. What do I need to load in sessions and startup to insure this is done at boot? Or why is the setting not being saved?
[17:57] <renata444> its like the system does not know WHICH device, my camera microphone OR aduio card output, to give control, so neither has control. I have ot go in and choose which one has control and select it as the default, but this does not hold upon reboot.
[17:59] <brainwash> renata444: no solution, but I suggest to search the web with this query: "pulseaudio set default output"
[19:50] <xubuntu20w> I've got a question about the lock screen and power manager I can't seem to find answers to elsewhere. After a lid close of my laptop (Lenovo Yoga 710) when I get things going and log back in, after maybe 2-3 minutes, the lock screen will activate without me having done anything. Is there a way to get this fixed?
[19:53] <xubuntu20w> I'm also using Xubuntu 19.10
