-<title>Troubleshooting sound problems</title>
-
-<para>&tde; uses the &arts; sound system which is complex and powerful,
-making it difficult for some users to troubleshoot when things go
-wrong. Here are some tips to help you diagnose what it's doing when your
-sound misbehaves :</para>

-<question>
-<para>How can I troubleshoot sound related problems in &tde;?</para>
-</question>
-
-<answer><para> To check that sound is working independently of &arts;, make
-sure that <command>artsd</command> isn't running and then try playing sound
-through <application>XMMS</application> or another multimedia application
-that isn't a part of &tde;. If that application doesn't play sound, then
-your general sound setup is probably broken and it's not a &tde;
-problem.</para>
-
-<para>Try playing sound with
-<userinput><command>artsplay</command><option><replaceable>
-/path/to/some/soundfile</replaceable></option></userinput>. Try various
-formats, ogg, mp3 and wav. Any error messages there might be useful in
-pointing you in the right direction.</para>
-
-<para>Try setting the &arts; output method to <acronym>OSS</acronym>. In the
-&kcontrolcenter; go to <menuchoice><guimenu>Sound &amp; Multimedia</guimenu>
-<guimenuitem>Sound System</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. On the
-<guilabel>Hardware</guilabel> tab, under <guilabel>Select the audio
-device</guilabel> choose <guilabel>Open Sound System</guilabel>. If you are
-running <acronym>alsa</acronym> this will use the <acronym>OSS</acronym>
-emulation, which may give better or worse results.</para>
-
-<para>Running <userinput><command>artsd</command><option> -l
-0</option></userinput> from a terminal will give you a lot of debug output,
-some of which might help you to diagnose the problem. Trying this in
-conjunction with using <command>artsplay</command> in a second terminal can give a wealth of information. If an <application>artsd</application> instance is already running, exit it with <userinput><command>artsshell
-</command><parameter>terminate</parameter></userinput></para>

-<question><para>
-I've updated to the latest version of &tde; keeping my previous configuration and my system sounds don't work anymore!</para></question>
-<answer><para>
-Assuming you've installed &arts; correctly and you still have the codecs installed your previous &tde; installation needed, possibly there is a problem with your <filename>knotifyrc</filename>. To confirm this, try temporarily
-renaming the file. A new one will be created when starting &tde;.
