I just upgraded from Fedora 17 to Fedora 18 using 'fedup' (great name for the utility hehe).
Most things seem to be working after a little fuss. However, in System Settings, if I click on 'Sound', the System Settings just suddenly exits with no message. I attempted, as root, to run gnome-sound-applet and it just sits there with no output message and doesn't give me the prompt back. So it is hung with no visible disk activity. I can ^C out of it. I checked logs under /var/log and nothing there about sound.
I went into the command line and ran 'alsamixer' which works. And from the command line I did a 'play my.mp3' and that worked, too. So sound is working. Just not the system settings applet. I have not attempted a gnome sound application just yet, but I suspect it would work since the underlying sound system seems to be functioning. Just the gnome configuration tool seems borked.
Any ideas? Thanks.
