Most distros are now shipping PA by default now so I doubt your problem will be specific to Mandriva :) However, I'm not expert enough in the ALSA API to know specifically what snd_pcm_hw_params_any() actually does, but I'd imagine (this is just a guess) that this is something that is either not implemented in the IOPLUG system (on which the pulseaudio alsa plugin builds) or something not implemented in the pulseaudio alsa plugin itself. Hopefully someone more versed in this can explain the reason why it fails. :) Col -- Colin Guthrie gmane(at)colin.guthr.ie http://colin.guthr.ie/ Day Job: Tribalogic Limited [http://www.tribalogic.net/] Open Source: Mandriva Linux Contributor [http://www.mandriva.com/] PulseAudio Hacker [http://www.pulseaudio.org/] Trac Hacker [http://trac.edgewall.org/] _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
