I hope that someone have a solution for this annoying error that I am having, and many others too as I have found out when trying to find a solution.
It all started when I updated my trusty old Xbox-live install to a new build that used the new AudioEngine so that I could take advantage of the new HD-audio formats. All the sound in XBMC was working great, but somehow I lost audio for all the other apps I was launching using the Advanced Launcher.
I had some errors in the log that suggested that I had troubles because of my Alsa being to old (1.0.24) and the update to 1.0.25 Alsa never worked out.
I got sound back on all my apps by installing the Eden Final (without AE) so I'm thinking that it must be the AE hogging the soundcard somehow.
Now recently I started a new install based on the 12.04 XBMCbuntu disc that is available and suddenly I have sound on all apps when launching XBMbuntu at login and then starting XBMC but not when launching XBMC directly at login.
If anyone could help me sort this out I would be really thankful as I've been trying to figure this out for weeks and it is really driving me nuts.
