Comment 2 Chemz Eddine 2014-11-03 19:23:44 CET
Indeed I dont have any sound and it worked fine when I installed Mageia - thanks for checking if you want me to run a series of test just provide me with the details.

It says default sound output is HDMI, is that what you expect? 

If yes, use a mixer like xfce4-mixer to enable "IEC958" on the HDMI device.

If no: if pulseaudio is used you can send sound to a different output (but I found this somewhat confusing in cauldron, needed to set a "profile" IIRC). If ALSA is used directly you can select a different output in the application (or change the default in your .asoundrc).

Is this bug report still valid in latest cauldron or Mageia 5RC? What results did the tests from comment #3 yield?

Samuel thank you very much for following up on this but after that MAJOR bug I had no choice but to switch distros I am now on Ubuntu and works fine so please close the thread - bug report as i cannot follow up anymore

Closing as OLD as per comment #5. See you later Chemz Eddine, when you miss Mageia too much :)
