Continued SCO audio issues...

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I posted a while back about having some issues getting SCO audio to work 
on some Compulab em-x270 boards. Well, we're still not there, but we've 
tried a lot more things. I'm going to describe the problem in some more 
detail now in the hopes that somebody here can help point me in a 
direction to get this working.

Symptoms:

  - Everything involved (bt headset, ALSA, aplay/mplayer/pulseaudio, 
etc) seems to think everything is working.
  - No sound comes out of the headset. We hear a hissing from the 
headset during actual audio playback (or when I have pulseaudio talking 
to it via 'module-alsa-sink' and the sink is not suspended).

Config(s) Tested:

 - Kernels: 2.6.23, 2.6.26, 2.6.27
 - Bluez: 3.26, 3.36, 4.12, 4.18
 - ALSA drivers: as shipped w/ kernels above

We've been through about every possible combination of the above. We've 
tried hci_usb and btusb. We've tested with 3 models of bt headset and 2 
development boards. For some reason, the ONLY place I can make SCO audio 
work is under a stock Ubuntu 8.10 (which uses Bluez 4.12, kernel 2.6.27, 
and ALSA 1.0.17 for the record).

I'm stumped. Here is some sample output from various pieces as we try to 
play a file. Right now we're using Bluez 3.36 (getting 4.x running on 
this platform was a bit of a PITA and was somewhat unstable so we backed 
out to what currently ships with openembedded)

We've tried with separate USB dongles (using the same chipset, that 
works under Ubuntu 8.10) so it's not the onboard BT chipset...

Pertinent output of "hcid -n -d" (this is what happens when I actually 
try to play audio with "aplay -D bt -f S16_LE test.wav". Yes, the test 
wavfile is 8Khz S16_LE PCM WAV audio):

I'm open to any suggestions. If more info is needed, tell me what you'd 
like to see and I'll post it up.

Thanks in advance,
