Hi everyone,

ok, I'm trying to get sound out of my Creative SoundBlaster MP3+ (external,
USB).

So far, all the logs show me that it's being recognized by snd-usb-audio, at
least:

Code:

# uname -rp
2.6.10-nitro1 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz


# lsmod
...
uhci_hcd               30480  0

snd_pcm                87048  3 snd_pcm_oss,snd_usb_audio
snd_timer              22148  2 snd_seq,snd_pcm
snd_page_alloc          7684  1 snd_pcm
snd_usb_lib            11520  1 snd_usb_audio
snd_rawmidi            20640  1 snd_usb_lib
snd_seq_device          6924  3 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_rawmidi
snd                    47588  12 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_usb_audio,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device

alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss



All volume settings were demuted and set to max using alsamixer or kmix.



Now when I try to play something in xmms or bmp, the time label gets frozen,
and I don't hear anything (the GUI doesn't freeze, though).

Instead, this is what i get in a console:

Code:
** WARNING **: alsa_free(): snd_pcm_start() failed: Broken pipe



This message is outputted infinitely until I kill -9 the player.

Meanwhile, the same happens in the kernel log, the message

Code:
cannot submit datapipe for urb 0, err = -38


is also being outputted infinitely.

I've already tried using mmap mode and/or software mixing and playing with
aplay or mplayer.
Nothing helps.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Artjom

I got exactly the same problem. Go to https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=272854&highlight=alsa+soundblaster not very elegant but works.
