In OpenSUSE 11.4, I have 3 audio devices constantly connected (mobo, webcam and a USB Logitech headset). All of these get assigned a /dev/dspX number on boot, mobo = 0, USB webcam = 1, Headset = 2. All work fine under pulseaudio control. From time to time I use a Bluetooth headset which connects via a dongle adapter. PA detects it fine and allows me to use it with many applications. One application in particular needs me to tell it using the AUDIODEV environment variable what device I am using. With the 3 constantly attached devices this is no problem (AUDIODEV=/dev/dsp0, etc.). However I have not found a way of associating a /dev/??? entry with the temporary BT headsets. As far as I can see the list of devices in /dev does not change when PA picks up the headset. Is this a PA issue or should I be looking elsewhere? -- --- Colin Beckingham http://www.it4gh.com
