Mike M's reply to "how do I make songbird use alsa?" was just promoted to the most useful! Tom Bauserman and 3 other people think it's one of the best replies.
I've never tried this on linux and my memory's a little fuzzy, but there is an about:config option to specify a particular audio sink for gstreamer to use. IIRC, it's "songbird.mediacore.gstreamer.audiosink". Set it to the name of the desired sink, perhaps "alsasink". You may have to create the pref; I don't think it exists by default. Not sure if this will work, but you could try it.-

changing the audiosink worked great. Thank you. -

I use SPDIF digital out and no matter what I've done I can't get pulseaudio to work. I just upgraded to 11 recently hoping they would have ironed it out. But no such luck. As soon as I switch to alsa and unmute the PCM everything works great. In the past I've used rhythmbox. But it's just doesn't work the way I want it to. Songbird seemed great.
I had used gstreamer-properties to set it to ALSA instead of automatic and that didn't seem to have any effect. I'll try the audiosink as soon as I have a chance and let you know if it worked. -

how do I make songbird use alsa?In Fedora 11 how do I switch songbird to user alsa? I don't see any options anywhere within the program to switch from pulseaudio. Everything else is making noise using alsa. But songbird won't use alsa.
