Sound Oddity On C6
I just encountered an oddity… it may have been this way for millennia :)
but somehow I’ve never noticed it before…
say I’m using X (which is pretty normal these days) and I have VLC
playing a “radio” station.
I do CTRL-ALT-Fx to switch to a text console THAT HAS NO ONE LOGGED IN
on it, and voila:
no sound!
as soon as I log in, the audio returns.
what gives here?

Are you using pulseaudio? I believe what you describe is the intended behaviour.
if that’s the default, then yes I am.
thanks!
