problem with speaker-test

problem with speaker-test

[Sedji Gaouaou]

Hi,

I am trying to use speaker-test on my sam9g20 board, with the Wolfson 
wm8731, but I can't have any tone...
Instead it returns this error:
# speaker-test -c 2 -t1

speaker-test 1.0.14

Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz)
Buffer size range from 16 to 1073745880
Period size range from 0 to 0
Using max buffer size 1073745880
Periods = 4
was set period_size = 0
was set buffer_size = 8192
Unable to set sw params for playback: Invalid argument
Setting of swparams failed: Invalid argument

So I tried:
# speaker-test -D"name" -c 2 -t1, but I don't know exactly what should I 
pass as "name".
I did: aplay -L to list all the devices, but I don't see anything...

Is anybody got an idea here?

Regards,
Sedji

Hrm, interesting.  This command works fine for me out of the box on my
sam9g20 board with Linus' current mainline (v2.6.29-7100-g833bb30).

I am using ALSA 1.0.18, does that help?  I'm not aware of any fixes,
though.

I have updated ALSA from 1.0.14 to 1.0.18 and it is working now!
Thanks for your help.
