Thread: Mouse and keyboard freeze when running pavucontrol, skype calls


i'm running ubuntu 10.10, 64-bit.

when run `pavucontrol` (0.9.9), or start call on skype (2.2.0.25), mouse , keyboard freeze (no input accepted).

os continues run fine, video plays, skype call works without issue.

mouse input events cease (when running `evtest /dev/input/event4`). mouse , keyboard start responding again after killing pavucontrol ssh session, or hanging call on skype.

can tell, x doesn't freeze (video, ui events continue occur), os runs fine, audio output continues speakers , headset. mouse , keyboard freeze, , because events stop reaching kernel?


if can shed light on why might happen, , how might go debugging problem, appreciative!


thanks!

for record, able solve problem plugging usb keyboard , mouse directly computer.

plugged usb hub (belkin f5u407), , whatever reason hub stopped taking input when pavucontrol or skype running (obviously pulseaudio)...

anyway, else in future.
