Using Synaptic for sound optimization

I just installed a few files with Synaptic following this sound guide. Interesting tip:

“With jaunty (not sure about intrepid), try this:

pulseaudio –kill

then

sudo alsa reload

It’s worked for me everytime so far, but it has to be done during a user session.”

Good tip, but I won’t try it because Audacity is able to record and Totem is able to play wav files at the moment. But how is it possible to play sound with simon?

Here is another interesting tip. Maybe I should take a closer look at Mint. By the way, this could be an option for the PC that is connected to the video beamer for playing DVDs.
