|
I've got alsa installed but when I choose it as output for xine it says that it wasn't able to initialize any audio drivers! I don't know what to do... This is my .asoundrc file: | Code: | pcm.via82xx {
type hw
card 0
}
ctl.via82xx {
type hw
card 0
}
pcm.dsp0 {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
}
# or:
# pcm.dsp0 pcm.default
# if "default" hasn't been redefined
#ctl.mixer0 {
# type hw
# card 0
#}
pcm.!dmix {
type dmix
ipc_key 1024
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"
channels 6
period_size 512
buffer_size 1024
}
}
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
slave.channels 6
route_policy duplicate
}
#pcm.jackplug {
# type plug
# slave { pcm "jack" }
#}
#pcm.jack {
# type jack
# playback_ports {
# 0 alsa_pcm:playback_1
# 1 alsa_pcm:playback_2
# }
# capture_ports {
# 0 alsa_pcm:capture_1
# 1 alsa_pcm:capture_2
# }
#} |

I doubt the asoundrc has anything to do with it. If you restart the alsasound service, what happens?
Oh, BTW, with the latest alsa, you don't need the asoundrc at all for dmix.

Well... Some problems were fixed restarting alsasound because it installed my soundcard device (I had it installed but I moved my gentoo to another HD and it seems that was broken). Without the .asoundrc it makes a weird noise every 15 seconds more or less. With it, it doesn't make that sound but once again xine is unable to initialize sound drivers  |

| I read it and followed instructions. It just doesn't work. Now at least I'm able to use OSS without the slight noise I was having before when reproducing music. |

| Still got the problem after all... With OSS when I reproduce songs with high tones (like power metal) it makes that weird noise |

I don't know. Maybe that's just a screwy driver. If this is a dual boot system with Windows, have you had any issues with sound under that OS?

Well, I haven't got it installed it right now but will have to because of University (that sucks, but I have no choice). That's what I was thinking of anyway: trying that same song under Windows. The weird thing is that before I moved Gentoo to the bigger HD, the sound was working just fine. It started working with that little noise after I moved it. |
