just answer myself. get some fix from
http://audacityteam.org/forum/thread/132


lsof lives here:

Any decent distribution should package it so you can install via your package manager.



aoss is part of the ALSA OSS compatability layer from the ALSA project. Again, should be a distro package for this.



You can't use audacity if there is a sound daemon running because audacity doesn't support the broken playback-only protocols used by sound daemons. You can try the emulation scripts like

$ artsdsp audacity

or

$ esddsp audacity

but the results are likely to be poor because of the extrac conversion and latency.

Hi,
I had difficulty to use audcity. when I started audacity, I got error like this

There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer, you will not be able to play or record audio
Error: Host error

From there, I searched google and last post on this list. there were some suggestions: I followed them and did following things prior to start audacity

rm ~/.audacity
use alsamixer to unmute mic
use volumn-control to unmute microphone input

su -c "chmod 666 /dev/dsp* "

It worked shortly, but after restart this system, I can't get this work any more. It can open a mp3 file, but can't play it. when click on play botton, it says
Error while opening sound device. please check the output device settings and the project sample rate.

I opened up the preperfence of audacity -> Audio i/o, there is nothing to select from playback device and recording device.

please offer some suggestions?

Yuandan
my system is
2.6.16-1.2133_FC5 #1 Tue Jun 6 00:52:14 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
I maintain it updated
