Default Re: VLC issue: no sound, no video... nothing

IMHO this is not vlc by itself, but its interaction with other factors. Please copy and paste in an xtern/konsole and run the following two diagnostic scripts and post on this thread the output URLs that they provide:
Code:
wget -O alsa-info.sh http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh && bash alsa-info.sh
For this next script, when prompted for a password enter the root password, and type "NO" for every question that you do not understand.
Code:
su -c 'wget -O tsalsa wget http://home.cfl.rr.com/infofiles/tsalsa && bash tsalsa'
again, post here the URL that each of these scripts create.

Also copy and paste the following (one line at a time) into an xterm/konsole and post here the output of:
rpm -qa | grep alsa
rpm -qa | grep pulse
rpm -q libasound2
cat /etc/modprobe.d/sound


Please also point to a location on the web (if possible) of the video that is causing your vlc to crash when you try to change the audio.
