The program I am actually using is one I have written myself. I was sure I was using the old method as I open(2). In my program I use int fd = open("/dev/dsp", O_RDWR); This should not go through ALSA (I think). I gues one should use something with "snd_pcm_open()" to use ALSA. > Since this problem is not related to the SiS7019 driver, I'll leave it > to later -- or for others to investigate.

I really don't understand why I do not see this problem on other hardware using the same compiled code. If the problem is ALSA, how can I then turn it off? Thanks for your investigation. regards/hans _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
