Hi, If I remove .asoundrc, after I open a Youtube video in Firefox (I can open two videos and sound works OK), for instance... Skype, Rhythmbox sound breaks. I also get "Could not open audio device for playback. Device is being used by another application" in sound tests panel found in System -> Preferences -> Sound After I close Firefox, Skype, Rhythmbox and sound tests work OK again. Another problem, if I open an audio CD with Rhythmbox, I can't run the sound tests, I get the "Could not open audio device for playback. Device is being used by another application" error message again. There might be other problems, I just pointed these out. snd_cs4281 23136 4 gameport 16008 2 snd_cs4281 snd_ac97_codec 101028 1 snd_cs4281 ac97_bus 3072 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm_oss 42144 0 snd_mixer_oss 17920 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 78596 4 snd_cs4281,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_page_alloc 11400 1 snd_pcm snd_opl3_lib 12928 1 snd_cs4281 snd_hwdep 10500 1 snd_opl3_lib snd_seq_dummy 4868 0 snd_seq_oss 35584 0 snd_seq_midi 9376 0 snd_rawmidi 25760 2 snd_cs4281,snd_seq_midi snd_seq_midi_event 8320 2 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi snd_seq 54224 6 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event snd_timer 24836 3 snd_pcm,snd_opl3_lib,snd_seq snd_seq_device 9612 6 snd_opl3_lib,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq snd 56996 20 snd_cs4281,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_opl3_lib,snd_hwdep,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device soundcore 8800 1 snd On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 11:45 PM, Lee Revell <rlrevell@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Wed, May 28, 2008 at 9:45 PM, Alejandro Benitez > <benitezalejandrogm@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> I'm running Ubuntu 8.04. >> So there must be a problem with this distro because I need an >> .asoundrc, otherwise things work (badly) as described in my first >> post. > > What exactly happens if you remove the .asoundrc? > > What is the output of "lsmod | grep snd"? > > Lee > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
