    Hi,

    I have an application that opens the sound card.  With the latest
    updates it will still open it as default device but can no longer open
    it as plughw:0,0.  The error I get is
    cannot open audio device "plughw:0,0" (Device or resource busy)

    When I run powertop, I see that the driver has a lot of interrupts
    even
    though there is no sound running.
    Top causes for wakeups:
      43.9% (100.6)       <interrupt> : ohci_hcd:usb2, eth0
      20.5% ( 46.9)       <interrupt> : ICE1724
       9.6% ( 22.0)       <interrupt> : libata
       6.4% ( 14.6)   at-spi-registry : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
       4.6% ( 10.5)                 X : do_setitimer (it_real_fn)
       4.4% ( 10.0)   /usr/bin/sealer : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)

    Perhaps this is normal, but given the device busy error above it makes
    me suspicious that there is something wrong.

    Sound plays normally using audio player, but it uses the default
    device.  I notice that the usage drops by about half for ICE1724 when
    the sound is playing.

    I'll probably do a debug of this at some point and post any findings.


that may be related to the pulse audio changes you have to use default to play sound with alsa.


That isn't good. Default automatically runs the sound through dmix. And it has a set frame rate of 48000. Other rates are software resampled. I want to avoid that and only use the hardware sample rates so that there is no resampling on the sound. Is there a way to configure sound with pulse audio to avoid this, or do I have to remove pulse audio in order to
get direct access to alsa?

Thanks.
