I hope this could help you.

OK, then type:
rpm -qa | grep pulse
that will identify all your installed pulse audio applications.

Remove them. Reboot. Try again with your sound.

Edit: Please see post below (re: testing for sound as user root) before removing pulse audio applications.

Before you remove your pulse applications, can you check if you get sound with root permissions?

O.K I’ll try in the next trial.

After I follow your “rpm -qa | grep pulse” I got this output…

but… the question is… how to remove all this from my computer…?? and I have test it on root permission, but still I can’t hear nothing at all… :confused:

You dont have to wait any more… :smiley:
