Summary: xmms/beep "couldn't open audio" on song change
Description:
When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: Connection refused

ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.

no, the socket remains the proper permission and owned by my user as well,
usually. I don't really ever run anything as root, especially audio stuff,
so I have no idea how that'd even happen. Let me wait for it to happen
again and I'll post a ls -l of the socket. All I have to do is wait for it
to happen a few times and there will be quite the collection of dead
sockts in there...

hrm the socket actually did disappear this time when it happened, weird.
That means it may or may not always remove the socket, I'm curious if the
socket gets removed after i press play again when it first happens vs.
just shutting down beep right then. I'll report back on this later when I
have more of a clue. This is somewhat of a pain to reproduce as it only
really happens on song change...and then only sometimes.

Yes, I confirm the behaviour. I don't see any socket/connect related
message, and I keep seeing the "device busy" when xine switches audio
formats.
However, I probably never got the socket/connect problem in the first
place. I simply saw this bug report for xine-lib:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1226595&group_id=9655&atid=109655
And when I came here looking for a matching bug I thought this one to be
the same problem, although I'm not sure anymore. Maybe I should have just
filed a new bug about my specific problem...
Although I don't actually know the innards of alsa-lib, my impression is
that the sequence of events in my case is the following one:
1. xine opens default pcm for 2.0 audio; that would use dmix
2. xine plays audio, that's buffered by dmix and played on the backend hw
pcm.
3. xine wants to swich format, so it has to close the 2.0 pcm and open the
5.1 one.
4. xine closes the default pcm audio. This closes the dmix plugin, but
probably the dmix plugin doesn't close the hw pcm yet, until any buffered
audio is finally flushed.
5. xine tries to open the 5.1 pcm, in this case surround51, that's not
dmix-mapped. As the hw pcm is STILL allocated by dmix, this call fails.
6. eventually dmix flushes its pending buffers and deallocates the hw pcm,
but xine has already bailed out...
See in the xine-lib bug report how inserting a sleep(1) call before the
snd_pcm_open call "fixes" the issue.
IMHO a possible fix for this issue would be to make the call to
snd_pcm_close block until the buffers are flushed and the underlaying pcm
is closed when the pcm being closed is dmix and the closing client is the
last active client.

Well, the dmix resource manager keeps the device allocated for a while (up
to 0.5sec). This has nothing related to audio bufferring. It would be
better to check for -EBUSY error code and keep trying to reopen audio
device about one or two seconds in xine-lib before giving up.

However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory

alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.

OK. So, just to clarify, you no longer get the:
(make_local_socket) connect failed: /tmp/alsa-dmix-foo-blah
errors when changing songs with xmms/beep, but you do get:
snd_pcm_open() of surround51 failed: Device or resource busy
when switching from 2.0 to 5.1 in xine?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
skandalfo - 01-01-06 13:20
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, I confirm the behaviour. I don't see any socket/connect related
message, and I keep seeing the "device busy" when xine switches audio
formats.
However, I probably never got the socket/connect problem in the first
place. I simply saw this bug report for xine-lib:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1226595&group_id=9655&atid=109655
And when I came here looking for a matching bug I thought this one to be
the same problem, although I'm not sure anymore. Maybe I should have just
filed a new bug about my specific problem...
Although I don't actually know the innards of alsa-lib, my impression is
that the sequence of events in my case is the following one:
1. xine opens default pcm for 2.0 audio; that would use dmix
2. xine plays audio, that's buffered by dmix and played on the backend hw
pcm.
3. xine wants to swich format, so it has to close the 2.0 pcm and open the
5.1 one.
4. xine closes the default pcm audio. This closes the dmix plugin, but
probably the dmix plugin doesn't close the hw pcm yet, until any buffered
audio is finally flushed.
5. xine tries to open the 5.1 pcm, in this case surround51, that's not
dmix-mapped. As the hw pcm is STILL allocated by dmix, this call fails.
6. eventually dmix flushes its pending buffers and deallocates the hw pcm,
but xine has already bailed out...
See in the xine-lib bug report how inserting a sleep(1) call before the
snd_pcm_open call "fixes" the issue.
IMHO a possible fix for this issue would be to make the call to
snd_pcm_close block until the buffers are flushed and the underlaying pcm
is closed when the pcm being closed is dmix and the closing client is the
last active client.

Summary: xmms/beep "couldn't open audio" on song change
Description:
When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:

No change at the version of alsa-lib 1.0.10 (at least as distributed by
Gentoo)...
I still have to remove the dmix bit in order for xine to properly switch
audio modes.

What about 1.0.11-rc*?

Summary: xmms/beep "couldn't open audio" on song change
Description:
When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: Connection refused

ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.

I fear the fix present in alsa-lib-1.0.10_rc1 (I'm using the Gentoo ebuild)
doesn't fix the problem...
xine bombs out when switching 2.0 to 5.1 audio with somewhat like the
following:
...
audio discontinuity #21, type is 2, disc_off 25854
waiting for in_discontinuity update #21
video discontinuity #21, type is 2, disc_off 25854
ao_close
audio_out: no streams left, closing driver
audio_alsa_out: snd_pcm_open() of surround51 failed: Device or resource
busy
audio_alsa_out: >>> check if another program already uses PCM <<<
audio_out: open failed!
ao_flush (loop running: 1)
...
And then an error dialog pops up.
Removing the dmix thing from NFORCE.conf fixes it again... :(

Summary: xmms/beep "couldn't open audio" on song change
Description:
When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: Connection refused
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client

ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.

I have never used suspend to disk on this computer, so I wouldn't know. I
will have to try out CVS when I get the chance.

I only notice this when using dmix...which I've not been using recently
seeing as this card has 4 virtual stereo channels and all these problems
got on my neves...it's enough to avoid having to use it...however I still
get random distortion every once in a while...I'm thinking that distortion
and this problem are caused by some sort of issue related to the card and
dma inaccuracies...though I'm really not sure...

When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: Connection refused
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client

ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.

Oh, I forgot to mention, my card is an echo mia midi...if that matters.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Try the CVS version. This might be fixed because of the recent change of
the default dmix config option.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xero - 06-15-05 22:31
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I made a CVS alsa-lib ebuild and am now running cvs alsa-lib with the
ipc_gid audio option in the dmix.conf. However, since my local config file
overrides the default dmix config with !dmix I've added it to my .asoundrc
as well just in case. I will report back whether or not the problem still
occurs. It happens somewhat randomly, so it's not the easiest thing to
test for.

it happened again. I was just playing a track and chatting and it just
popped up the cannot connect. I had to restart beep before it started
working again. So the CVS change didn't do anything.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
tiwai - 06-22-05 18:22
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Weird... Could you check whether these socket files still exist if this
happens? Also, check which process opens /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p (e.g. via
fuser or lsof).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xero - 06-22-05 19:01
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I know for a fact the socket still exists after this happens, infact it
usually ends up leaving a bunch of sockets because when it does happen
they don't seem to get deleted. I will check which process opens it as
soon as I get a chance, probably later today.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xero - 06-23-05 02:47

here's lsof output

I think this tends to happen more under load. I'm starting to wonder if
this is relevant to the sound card driver. I also get distortion with dmix
sometimes as well when under load, pops, clicks, and occasionally the fade
in of metallic sounding distortion, I've posted in bug 0000881 about my
problems with that, though at this point I'm thinking these two things are
relevant to each other. This has become extremely annoying and I'm not too
sure what to do. Even when I don't use dmix beep will just tend to freeze
completely every once in a while, usually when under load as well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
tiwai - 06-27-05 16:22
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The noises of dmix on a heavy CPU load is considerable, but this should
have nothing to do with the busy-state of socket. The confliction of
socket means a different thing, e.g. the root takes the socket and sets it
as the permission 0600. No certain clue yet, though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xero - 06-27-05 22:05
----------------------------------------------------------------------
no, the socket remains the proper permission and owned by my user as well,
usually. I don't really ever run anything as root, especially audio stuff,
so I have no idea how that'd even happen. Let me wait for it to happen
again and I'll post a ls -l of the socket. All I have to do is wait for it
to happen a few times and there will be quite the collection of dead
sockts in there...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xero - 06-27-05 22:41
----------------------------------------------------------------------
hrm the socket actually did disappear this time when it happened, weird.
That means it may or may not always remove the socket, I'm curious if the
socket gets removed after i press play again when it first happens vs.
just shutting down beep right then. I'll report back on this later when I
have more of a clue. This is somewhat of a pain to reproduce as it only
really happens on song change...and then only sometimes.

This seems to be hitting xine-lib too.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xero - 08-01-05 23:50
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I only notice this when using dmix...which I've not been using recently
seeing as this card has 4 virtual stereo channels and all these problems
got on my neves...it's enough to avoid having to use it...however I still
get random distortion every once in a while...I'm thinking that distortion
and this problem are caused by some sort of issue related to the card and
dma inaccuracies...though I'm really not sure...

Summary: xmms/beep "couldn't open audio" on song change
Description:
When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: Connection refused

ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.

Xero - 06-26-05 22:08

I think this tends to happen more under load. I'm starting to wonder if
this is relevant to the sound card driver. I also get distortion with dmix
sometimes as well when under load, pops, clicks, and occasionally the fade
in of metallic sounding distortion, I've posted in bug 0000881 about my
problems with that, though at this point I'm thinking these two things are
relevant to each other. This has become extremely annoying and I'm not too
sure what to do. Even when I don't use dmix beep will just tend to freeze
completely every once in a while, usually when under load as well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
tiwai - 06-27-05 16:22
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The noises of dmix on a heavy CPU load is considerable, but this should
have nothing to do with the busy-state of socket. The confliction of
socket means a different thing, e.g. the root takes the socket and sets it
as the permission 0600. No certain clue yet, though.

I know for a fact the socket still exists after this happens, infact it
usually ends up leaving a bunch of sockets because when it does happen
they don't seem to get deleted. I will check which process opens it as
soon as I get a chance, probably later today.

Weird... Could you check whether these socket files still exist if this
happens? Also, check which process opens /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p (e.g. via
fuser or lsof).

Description:
When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: Connection refused
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client

ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.

it happened again. I was just playing a track and chatting and it just
popped up the cannot connect. I had to restart beep before it started
working again. So the CVS change didn't do anything.

Weird... Could you check whether these socket files still exist if this
happens? Also, check which process opens /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p (e.g. via
fuser or lsof).

I made a CVS alsa-lib ebuild and am now running cvs alsa-lib with the
ipc_gid audio option in the dmix.conf. However, since my local config file
overrides the default dmix config with !dmix I've added it to my .asoundrc
as well just in case. I will report back whether or not the problem still
occurs. It happens somewhat randomly, so it's not the easiest thing to
test for.

Summary: xmms/beep "couldn't open audio" on song change
Description:
When playing a song in beep sometimes it'll pop up a "couldn't open audio"
box as if the device is in use. This is using dmix, however, so that
seemed a bit weird. I normally have to close and reopen beep to resolve
this. I believe xmms does the same thing because I've read about people
having the exact same issue with xmms.
This starts showing up when I start pressing play again:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: Connection refused
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:

ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
However one thing which I've never seen mentioned in the previous reports,
is that when trying to use another app through dmix it doesn't work
either. Here's what mplayer says, when trying to play a video:
alsa-init: 1 soundcard found, using: default
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:196:(make_local_socket) connect failed:
/tmp/alsa-dmix-30443-1118514847-814284: No such file or directory
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:834:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to connect client
alsa-init: playback open error: No such file or directory
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
so apparently something went wrong with /tmp/alsa-dmix-*. As soon as I
closed beep, all other applications started working properly again, and
when I start it back up again, it works fine again too, until it does this
again. It seems to do it sporadically so it's somewhat hard to test for.
Attached is my asoundrc.
