I am on Fedora 19 64-bit, getting Steam from negativo17. Steam crashes whenever a notification plays a sound. For example, if I get a chat message and I do not have the window selected it will crash with a segmentation fault. The error message I got is here. I am pretty sure the last line is related to me calling fpaste. My guess is that I do not have a correct 32-bit sound library installed. All of my 32-bit libraries are listed here. I doubt that this is a hardware issue at all, but my hardware is listed here. Along with the Intel chip listed, I have a NVIDIA GeForce GT 555M that I use Bumblebee and Primus to utilize.

What could be done to fix this?

This is most likely an issue with selinux and Miles. Do you have any selinux events?

Closing pending information that this is not selinux-related.

I am having the same exact problem, SELinux is disabled. Running Fedora 19 64-Bit.

Steam loads, but as soon as it tries to use sound, it crashes.

Sorry, I have not been able to get around to this issue due to being busy too much. How do I find out about SELinux and Miles?

Sammidysam, what you need to do is the following:

First of all, check if SELinux is enabled by doing "getenforce" on the command line. If it's set to either enforcing or permissive, then you'll see events in your audit log which you can see by issuing the command "tailf /var/log/audit/audit.log | get AVC"

Not sure what he means by "miles"

getenforce returns Enforcing, I have no command get installed. Do you mean grep?
