 +===== no alsa MIC input =====
 +
 +Check for existence of arecord process. It can be used to sample noise and feed a kernel entropy (package **randomsound**)
 +
 +[[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/randomsound/+bug/590780]]
 +
 +randomsound has to be started AFTER pulse audio. It is hard to achieve because pulse is started as from user graphical session.
 +As workaround it is nice to disable or remove rendomsound package.
 +
 +
 +===== Simultaneous on HDMI and Analog =====
 +Run paprefs, go to last tab "Simultaneous Output" and enable feature.
 +This will add new device for both HDMI and Analog output and set it as default one.
