Kubuntu 13.10 and ppsspp Qt

[xenowildfire]

I'm not sure if this has something to do with ppsspp or not but I compile ppssppQt just fine using 13.10 I was using Zorin 8, based on Ubuntu 13.10 and I got Qt5 to compile fine and everything but I had other problems with Zorin so I changed over to Kubuntu 13.10 and when I would play ppssppQt after compiling it I would have no sound so after a little bit a messing around I figured out it was switching my built in audio to hdmi and I wasn't getting any sound.
Everything else I would play after I restarted my computer like music would work but as soon as I tried to play a game using ppssppQt I wasn't getting sound until I found out how to keep my sound from changing over to hdmi.

This sounds like it's the same thing as #5132.

And just to let you know now I do have my computer connected thru hdmi and I have had no problems with it.

I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 and have this really annoying bug where it never switches to HDMI audio when I plug my HDMI cable in. Also, there are occasional glitches where the sound stops working and audio control settings freeze (all unrelated to PPSSPP though and without PPSSPP running).

I'd say that this is also a bug in Ubuntu (I don't get the bug you describe and you didn't get it on a previous OS either). The reason you don't get it in other apps (only PPSSPP) is likely because you use apps that have written their own sound system, based on ALSA, or are using a different framework.
Qt apps will almost universally be using PulseAudio (which Ubuntu has traditionally neglected but can usually be made to work). I wonder if you can test this with another Qt app and see if it has the same problem. I realise you are on Kubuntu and every app tends to use Qt but they actually use the KDE framework, which is a framework on top of Qt and uses an entirely different audio framework.

You can reopen if you find this is somehow related to PPSSPP.

Thanks.

As far as I know I haven't had a problem with anything else changing my sound from hdmi to audio input, I think it may have something to do with ppsspp doing it but once I fix it back to hdmi sound works fine. Any other emulators use Qt? I have used other emulators but ppsspp is the only one that I have compiled. Give me a list of different apps to try and I will let you know how they work if I have the same problem.
