I've seen recent notes on the frequency range for speaker test (nice to
have a wide range of things).  Has anyone tried the latest version(s) to
see if this bug pops its head up.  I've got other programs that appear to
exhibit this (or a similar) error, but I feel that a standard program is a
better example.  If you need more information, PLEASE let me know!

I've seen recent notes on the frequency range for speaker test (nice to
have a wide range of things).  Has anyone tried the latest version(s) to
see if this bug pops its head up.  I've got other programs that appear to
exhibit this (or a similar) error, but I feel that a standard program is a
better example.  If you need more information, PLEASE let me know!

Is this a problem with the library, My interface card (Revolution 7.1), my
(simple) /etc/asound.conf, or with (I doubt) speaker-test?  Perhaps it
should be in a different catagory.  I have working speaker tests in older
versions, and (I assume) the current versions of others.

Is this a problem with the library, My interface card (Revolution 7.1), my
(simple) /etc/asound.conf, or with (I doubt) speaker-test?  Perhaps it
should be in a different catagory.  I have working speaker tests in older
versions, and (I assume) the current versions of others.
