Despite sifting through the threads on this topic I'm still not having
any luck with this!
- using lsmod I've confirmed that the sound modules are loading on the
terminal.
- using ps-ax|grep nasd I see that /sbin/nasd -aa is running
- flash is silent
- xmms complains:
Couldn't open audio
Please check that
1. You have the correct output plugin selected
2. No other program is blocking the soundcard
3. Your soundcard is configured properly
When I check xmms output plugins under Options/Preferences it
appears to default to eSound and doesn't even list nasd as an option.
If I change the default sound daemon from nasd to esd in lts.conf
then xmms works.
- music player complains:
osscommon: Cannot access /dev/dsp, check permissions
If I change the server permissions on /dev/dsp to 666 then the
music player will pump the sound out the server!
So, here I sit in silence scratching my head! It almost seems that the
server is unaware of nasd, (rpm -q nasd yields nothing OTOH a search
for nasd using synaptic also yields nothing).
I know it's something simple but then, so am I! Any help would be much
appreciated.
