It used to play this sample without any problem (but only using oss emulation - aplay wouldn't work). But that was when I had a messed up alsa install. I should confess to being the author of this module - I've not had a problem with it before and it will still output sound (eg if I load the oss emulation module and type cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp it will output a *brief* amount of white noise). But I also clearly did not have a fully working alsa userland install. I had alsa-lib working but the utils were messed up in some way. Now I am not sure what is up - as it looks like the kernel side works but the userland side doesn't. > Try this: aplay -Dplughw:0,0 aine-email.wav > $ aplay -Dplughw:0,0 aine-email.wav Playing WAVE 'aine-email.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono ALSA lib pcm_plug.c:773:(snd_pcm_plug_hw_refine_schange) Unable to find an usable access for 'plughw:0,0' aplay: set_params:895: Access type not available > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
