Attachments: 2 errors windows just after KDE desktop launching

Description Y.LE_NY 2011-02-23 22:54:12 CET
Description of problem:
I have a KDE window error message about audio devices detection justa after launching KDE desktop and I have a sound problem (sound works intermittently) with KDE 4.6.0.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
KDE 4.6.0
alsa 1.0.23

How reproducible:
Just after login to KDE Desktop by kdm, I have an error window with title : "Sound devices card removed" and the message :
KDE has detected that one or more of its internal sound devices were removed.
Would you like KDE forgets these devices permanently?
Here is the list of devices that KDE thinks to be removed:
Capture : Conexant CX8811 (CX88 Digital)
Capture : HDA Intel (ALC662 rev1 Analog)
Sortie : HDA Intel (ALC662 rev1 Analog)

And I have the foolowing buttons :
Yes
No
Manage devices 

Can you fix this problem ?

In french :
Périphériques de son enlevés. 
KDE a détecté qu'un ou plusieurs périphériques internes de son ont été enlevés. 
Voulez-vous que KDE oublie ces périphériques de façon permanente ? 
Voici la liste des périphériques que KDE pense être enlevés : 
Capture : Conexant CX8811 (CX88 Digital)
Capture : HDA Intel (ALC662 rev1 Analog)
Sortie : HDA Intel (ALC662 rev1 Analog)

This is a new user account or are you using the same /home dir of that user?

What happens if you select "yes", then log out -> log in?

I have only 2 accounts on my Mageia system root and my user account and I use only my user account. My user account was created when I have installed Mageia
Then this not a new user account and I can not use the same /home dir of another  user.
 
>What happens if you select "yes", then log out -> log in?
I use KDE. First time, I'm logging to the KDE desktop and I saw the errors messages. Then I go in Mageia menu in KDE -> Quit -> Logout and I'm logging an other time with the same errors messages about sound devices problems in KDE.

Strange, I launch Firefox 4.0b11 + Flash 10.2 r152 and I go on youtube.com but I have no sound when I play a video.
Then I choose to launch Konqueror to do a test and just after Konqueror launching, I have the sound that start to work for my video in Firefox !!!

1)

Previously, just after login to KDE Desktop by kdm, I have an error window with title :
"Sound devices card removed" and the message :
KDE has detected that one or more of its internal sound devices were removed."

After the following rpm packages updates, my problem with KDE error window disappeared.

2) But but I always have a problem with alsa audio support with FreetuxTV-0.5.2 package compiled for Mandriva 2010.2 :

[FreetuxTV]    MESSAGE    : Launching channel 'France 3' at '3:4' -> rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=202&flavour=sd

Then I will try

for FreetuxTV.

If this bug is fixed can we close this report?

(Open a new one for freetuxtv).
Comment 7 Y.LE_NY 2011-02-26 10:19:48 CET
@Samir,

I will recompile FreetuxTV for Mageia this weekend and if it works fine, I will report it here.
