Upgraded from a working FC7 system.
Now I have no sound... at least no ALSA sound.
Using an application with OSS works fine:
mplayer -ao oss test.wav
will play it just fine.
However, using ALSA fails miserably:
mplayer -ao alsa test.wav
alsa-lib: confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0'
alsa-lib: conf.c:3510:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such device
alsa-lib: confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings
alsa-lib: conf.c:3510:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat
returned error: No such device alsa-lib: confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer)
error evaluating name alsa-lib: conf.c:3510:(_snd_config_evaluate)
function snd_func_refer returned error: No such device alsa-lib:
conf.c:3982:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device alsa-lib:
pcm.c:2145:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default alsa-init: playback
open error: No such device Could not open/initialize audio device -> no
sound. Audio: no sound
Running system-config-soundcard shows the soundcard listed... and testing
it in the same applet works. But again, ALSA just can't see it. Did
someone mention the latest ALSA being an improvement?
The soundcard (from /etc/sysconfig/hwconf) is:
class: AUDIO
bus: PCI
detached: 0
driver: snd-via82xx
desc: "VIA Technologies, Inc. VT82C686 AC97 Audio Controller"
vendorId: 1106
deviceId: 3058
subVendorId: 1458
subDeviceId: a002
pciType: 1
pcidom: 0
pcibus: 0
pcidev: 7
pcifn: 5
In addition, the azureus BT client no longer works. The error given is:
java: xcb_xlib.c:50: xcb_xlib_unlock: Assertion `c->xlib.lock' failed.
Breaking Java... nice.
