<h1>Sound System</h1> Here you can configure aRts, KDE's sound server. This program not only allows you to hear your system sounds while simultaneously listening to an MP3 file or playing a game with background music. It also allows you to apply different effects to your system sounds and provides programmers with an easy way to achieve sound support.

Normally, the sound server defaults to using the device called <b>/dev/dsp</b> for sound output. That should work in most cases. On some systems where devfs is used, however, you may need to use <b>/dev/sound/dsp</b> instead. Other alternatives are things like <b>/dev/dsp0</b> or <b>/dev/dsp1</b>, if you have a soundcard that supports multiple outputs, or you have multiple soundcards.

8.

Normally, the sound server defaults to using a sampling rate of 44100 Hz (CD quality), which is supported on almost any hardware. If you are using certain <b>Yamaha soundcards</b>, you might need to configure this to 48000 Hz here, if you are using <b>old SoundBlaster cards</b>, like SoundBlaster Pro, you might need to change this to 22050 Hz. All other values are possible, too, and may make sense in certain contexts (i.e. professional studio equipment).

9.

This configuration module is intended to cover almost every aspect of the aRts sound server that you can configure. However, there are some things which may not be available here, so you can add <b>command line options</b> here which will be passed directly to <b>artsd</b>. The command line options will override the choices made in the GUI. To see the possible choices, open a Konsole window, and type <b>artsd -h</b>.
