I read but did not understand any details of udev but I am certain
it is why my old application called gmfsk finds that /dev/dsp is busy.
It is not busy but the current setup of udev makes it appear busy. Also
it is certain that udev can have upset with the new kernels and be
causing the problems some or most of us are having.
What makes you think /dev/dsp isn't busy, and if it is busy, that udev
is to blame? Try this
lsof -n | grep /dev/dsp
it should list any processes that have /dev/dsp open.

I did that and got no result. I think that means it is not busy?
It means no other app has it open, maybe some other meaning of "busy" is
in mind.
I just looked at the sources in ./src/snd.c ... can you copy the last
couple of things it says before it fails? It should say something like
"Opening /dev/dsp for writing" or similar.
Another tool is strace, just run the thing as
strace gmfsk
add whatever gmfsk args you usually use at the end.
After it stops spewing nonsense, review the last few dozen lines looking
for lines referring to /dev/dsp, and cut and paste them here.

Hi Andy I am not yet able to save strace output. I tried $ strace gmfsk
> gm.txt but it put notin in the file. Will experiment. Attached is a
screenshot of the warning panel I get. More when I figure out how to get
it in a file.
