_______________________________________________________________________ Mandriva Linux Advisory MDVA-2008:168 http://www.mandriva.com/security/ _______________________________________________________________________ Package : sound-scripts Date : November 7, 2008 Affected: 2009.0 _______________________________________________________________________ Problem Description: The sound initialization scripts provided with Mandriva Linux 2009 activate the Analog Loopback channel when it is present. This channel is present on most audio chipsets supported by the snd-hda-intel driver, which are commonly used on recent systems. When active, this channel plays back the sound received by the line-in and mic-in channels. If nothing is actually connected to these channels, this can result in an unpleasant loud noise over the speakers or headphones connected to the line-out or speaker-out connector. This update adjusts the sound initialization scripts to mute this channel by default. Unfortunately, this change will not be applied automatically on already-installed systems, as existing settings are automatically stored at shutdown and re-applied at startup on Mandriva Linux. If you are suffering from this issue, then you can run the command 'reset_sound' as root after installing this update, and it should resolve the issue. Alternatively, you can simply disable / mute the Analog Loopback channel yourself, using a mixer application. _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2009.0: d983819fa41c1df3e79412741e6c5631 2009.0/i586/sound-scripts-0.56-1.1mdv2009.0.noarch.rpm 932a5216281bfd4efd7a7883ca0528b3 2009.0/SRPMS/sound-scripts-0.56-1.1mdv2009.0.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2009.0/X86_64: 4a0deef8237afc7279cb5eb8f3d22be9 2009.0/x86_64/sound-scripts-0.56-1.1mdv2009.0.noarch.rpm 932a5216281bfd4efd7a7883ca0528b3 2009.0/SRPMS/sound-scripts-0.56-1.1mdv2009.0.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
