Hello, I am developing an ALSA application for an embedded PPC platform. I have alsa-lib and alsa-utils installed and created the device nodes, and am attempting to test with the dummy driver, but no matter what I do, aplay fails to find a config. It just returns "No such file or directory". ~ # aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** ALSA lib control.c:816:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL hw:0 aplay: device_list:232: control open (0): No such file or directory ALSA lib control.c:816:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL hw:1 aplay: device_list:232: control open (1): No such file or directory ~ # aplay -D hw:0,0 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav ALSA lib pcm.c:2146:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM hw:0,0 aplay: main:548: audio open error: No such file or directory I do not have strace on this platform. How can I determine which file or directory is missing? /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf is present as well as the correct device node: ~ # ls -al /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p crw-rw---- 1 root 29 116, 16 Jun 9 15:54 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p What am I doing wrong?
