When using alsa-lib 1.1.3 the semaphore error is gone. That's good. On the other hand there still is no sound on the second mplayer instance when using dmix. It quits with same error as before. So on this system dmix with a "hw:Live" slave does not work. What does work is dmix with the onboard Intel chip "hw:Intel" slave. >From lspci: ... 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) HD Audio Controller 05:00.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs EMU10k1 [Sound Blaster Live! Series] (rev 07) ... Well, I can just report this behaviour. It is not a big issues since the hardware mixing works perfectly. But still it is a bit of a loss since dmix did work before with emu10k1. -Sebastian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
