I have a problem were audio works fine with out dmix, but when I try to use dmix no audio data gets to the driver. The dmix plug-in does work when attaching external usb audio device. Trying to use dmix so that more then one application can generate audio simultaneously. If I try with version 1.0.11 of ALSA the audio driver doesn't receive any data after the snd_pcm_period_elapsed() function call. If I try with version 1.0.13 of ALSA, aplay returns an error saying: # aplay -D hw:0,0 pcm48khz_2ch_stereo.wav open_stream success Playing WAVE 'pcm48khz_2ch_stereo.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Stereo aplay: set_params:882: Broken configuration for this PCM: no configurations available I'm planning on building a debug version of 1.0.14rc2 and tracing thru the code to see why aplay fails. Is there a better way to debug this? Are there any tricks for building ALSA with debug info? Here is how the driver is set up: static snd_pcm_hardware_t snd_oloriver_playback_hw = { .info = (SNDRV_PCM_INFO_MMAP | SNDRV_PCM_INFO_INTERLEAVED | SNDRV_PCM_INFO_MMAP_VALID), .formats = SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S16_LE, .rates = SNDRV_PCM_RATE_48000, .rate_min = 48000, .rate_max = 48000, .channels_min = 2, .channels_max = 2, .buffer_bytes_max = 65536, .period_bytes_min = 32768, .period_bytes_max = 32768, .periods_min = 2, .periods_max = 2, }; No config file is used for the working version. For the dmix version the etc/asound.conf file is: pcm.chemamix { type dmix ipc_key 1024 slave { pcm "hw:0,0" rate 48000 } } pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm chemamix } Thanks, Daniel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
