Hi all -
Recently upgraded to v31 from v30 via the mythbuntu repository on Ubuntu
18.04 (waiting for 20.04.1 before upgrading the OS).
Everything seemed to go smoothly...until I tried to play a recording and
got the dreaded red X with no sound.
Went into Setup/Audio and set the input to CARD:HDMI 3 (HDMI via NVidia
card, which it's been using for years).
The audio test seemed to be fine - got white noise on all five speakers and
the subwoofer. Exited and saved the configuration, but the sound still did
not work (same symptom - red X and no sound output), and when I go back
into Setup, it then says that the setting is invalid.
In the past (v30 and earlier), I'd only get the annoying red X if something
else on the BE/FE computer was using sound (e.g. a browser playing a
YouTube video or VLC playing a video or .mp3 file).
What's up?
Thanks in advance!
Bob
