This is basically the same bug as reported here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/188358 Play a flash video with sound in Firefox (youtube, dailymotion, last.fm etc.), then try to play a video using VLC, you will get no sound and the following error message: -------- jack error: failed to connect to JACK server oss error: cannot open audio device (/dev/dsp) main error: couldn't find a filter for the conversion main error: couldn't create audio output pipeline -------- Tried with all available output module (alsa, jack, oss..) Video plays fine with sound using mplayer. For it to work, I have to close Firefox (probably to "release" /dev/dsp) and then play my video (if I reopen Firefox first and don't play any video, it works too). vlc (any 1.x version) firefox (any 2.x or 3.x version) |
This task depends upon

this is not a packaging bug. is mostly your problem and in the way
you configured devices. if is working in mplayer it should work in
vlc with the same configuration for audio. set all your apps on
