The multiple streams on the same slave can't be paused and restarted individually. In ALSA scheme, the resume is triggered explicitly by app, not automatically done in the driver. Now imagine two streams running on dmix. The first stream resumes the slave, and both streams are resumed. Then, what is the state of the second stream? It should have been still suspended, but now it is running secretly. > 2. Does the snd_pcm_drop cause some several period data be dropped? Yes. Very much same as others. > 3. The return values -ENOSYS, always cause error print "Failed. Restarting > stream." in aplay. Can it be fixed? No, this is the expected behavior. It's no error.
