            Bug ID: 160697
           Summary: [GTK][EFL] ALSA_CARD environment variable is not
                    passed for layout tests.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified

With the GTK+ port, when running some layout tests like for example media/media-source/media-source-stalled-holds-sleep-assertion.html I hear strange sounds and bips on my computer.

I found a way to workaround this (with ALSA rather than pulseaudio) :

1. add snd-dummy to /etc/modules or modprobe it.
2. run the tests with the environment variable ALSA_CARD=Dummy


This works ok, but only if webkitpy allows the environment variable ALSA_CARD to be copied from the user environment.


I'm not sure if this (hearing sounds meanwhile running tests) is an issue also with pulse audio.
