My point/intent is to separate MP3 decoding and ALSA. No I don't have this effect when playing wav files. So, it's not an ALSA issue. Try various MP3 decoders, e.g. mpg123, mpg321, mplayer. I have upgraded my system and alsa does not play the beginning of my the samples. The aplay does not play the beginning as well. Is the beginning there? Use something like audacity to look at the file. The beginning might be missing. This doesn't sound like an alsa problem, it sounds like something is wrong with the file you are playing. You haven't given enough information to help you. *You* know what you mean by upgraded, but no one here does. *You* know what does not play the beginning* means but no one here does. *You* know what samples you are talking about, but no one here does. No one on the list knows anything about your problem except what you explicitly state, so be descriptive and specific. e.g. 5 seconds of audio at the start of a wav file that I expect to be there doesn't play when using aplay. I have used audacity to load the file and confirmed that the 5 seconds of audio are actually there. I don't have any idea of how to solve this problem. Give me some indications please. You have to give us a better indication of what the problem is before we can recommend any solutions. Also, run the script found at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-info.sh and post the link back here. Thank You All that said, it still might not be possible to help you, but there will be a better chance. Sorry for beeing not exhaustive. I found that mplayer sometimes can play whole sample while aplay and play never play whole sample. Less than one second at the beginning of the sample is NOT played. The defect sounds the same both in mplayer, aplay and play. mplayer plays the whole sample right after the startup. Later on after a few hour of working on my machine mplayer stops playing the whole sample. In this case mplayer outputs the following message: /dev/dsp busy It of course takes less than a second and than plays the sample withous this short beginning. aplay an play don't show any suspicious message. They just don't play the very short beginning of a sample.

Re: [Alsa-user] Donation Recommendation? - 24-bit sound card
I picked up a Delta 44 (pci / ice1712) off of craigslist for $100. I would check to see what they need first. The Delta is a fine card, but by the time you add in a microphone preamp, headphone preamp, and stuff just to record / playback stuff. Not to mention the costs of cables and adapters relative to a typical household existing items. Recording wise 24 bit gives you a greater dynamic sampling range. But for most people it's not needed for playback as your CDs and DVDs are already in a 16 bit format. And the benefit on playback is minimal. Aside from generally being a better soundcard, rather than from the media that it will be playing. Are you looking for a card that only does 24 bit? Most that I know of do 16 and 24 bit. And the only 24 bit media I have is that that I created myself. I'm going to donate a 24-bit capable sound card to the mpd project to add 24-bit support.

Sounds a bit expensive -- if I'm not mistaken those cards can be had locally from brands such as Trust and Club 3D but also a nicer brand such as TerraTec for around EUR50. It's a bit hard to make sure as online stores seem to not consider the audio-chipset marketable information.

[Alsa-user] Compilation of Alsa 1.0.17 and alsa-snapshot on Suse10.0 crashes
Hello all, I recently bought M-Audio Revolution 5.1 card and problems appear. I have alsa 1.0.9a on my computer and when I set ice1724 driver I get rerally horrible sound ( worse than 8-bit parallel-port DAC). Furthermore I hava some strange multitracks in alsamixer. But nothing reasonable. I created some simple oscilloscope application to see, what is on line inputs. And furthermore I found that my on-board ALC655 card has right input channel assigned to microphone input all the time (left channel can be switched correctly). So I said it is time to upgrade Alsa. First I tried version 1.0.17 and then snapshot version. But both ended with messages below. It looks those functions are missing. Does anybody know what should I do ?

Re: [Alsa-user] Donation Recommendation? - 24-bit sound card
Recording wise 24 bit gives you a greater dynamic sampling range. But for most people it's not needed for playback as your CDs and DVDs are already in a 16 bit format.

Re: [Alsa-user] ALSA vs M-Audio fast track ULTRA
It looks like this might be your issue:

Using 16 octaves of pink noise
ALSA lib confmisc.c:1286:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition

directory
ALSA lib pcm.c:2184:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM hw:0
Playback open error: -2,Nessun file o directory [...],
Not that I've had that issue. But you might only have some of your modules
loaded. Or a mixmatch of versions loaded. Or some sort of udev or /dev/audio/
issues. Do you get sound on the main/default soundcard? Because it seems you
got the same error on both cards. You might try hw:0,0 instead of just hw:0.
Generally speaking hw:0,0 for playback and hw:0,1 for recording. I've seen
issues like this (snd_ctl_open) when the /dev/ devices were not present.
--
For reference here's my Mobile Pre setup. From memory and cut and paste for
the most part so grain of salt. And I used to have 2 mobile pre's. You might
try using a liveCD like knoppix and see if it auto detects/configures your
primary soundcard. Just to verify that at least that works under linux.

Re: [Alsa-user] Donation Recommendation? - 24-bit sound card
Those are the two I have here. mplayer was giving me endless grief actually ripping the tracks from the DVD so I haven't yet done that in fact, but: mplayer -dumpaudio -dumpfile sound_track.wav ./source.vob Granted that my default distro supplied version of mplayer didn't work for this. I had to compile a custom version of mplayer from source. At least that's how it was for debian. At least it's not as bad as RH and others that strip out all mp3 support and such. Although I had to compile lame from source as well on debian. Mainly to get Layer III, versus Layer II type mp3's. Since my mp3 player is picky. It also solved the Audacity issue of exporting mp3's and not finding some lib. I have a number of lower grade historical archives of visual arts programs with insufficient audio. i.e. Normalized to the audio of the announcer, not the group. So I've had to edit the audio and rejoin it to the video to make it viewable (by humans) for all intents and purposes. That and their DVD audio format is 2.1 at best.

mplayer -dumpaudio -dumpfile sound_track.wav ./source.vob I'd have figured that out :-) Didn't work with the 96/24 audio... Well, you could probably do the arecord method. arecord -D copy -t wav -c 2 -f S24_BE -r 96000 audio_track.wav (unverified syntax) Set record to the PCM / VOL device (which I can only do in aumix for some reason). Set the gain / lever for PCM to 50% / tastes. And play the track. Of course it assumes your soundcard is capable, you have copy in .asoundrc, and your soundcard can play 24/96kHz. Although that dvd-audio.sf.net tool might be a better option. Or you might just need the mencoder option of -oac copy -ovc null for mplayer. I don't have said media, so I can't play / test it out. - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user

Check this out: http://dvd-a.info/Index.asp?stitle=neil+young 2 pages of mainly Neil Young DVD-A releases all containing tracks up to 24bit/176khz. Lots of people are ripping their DVD-A discs with the above tool. DVD-A is extremely uncommon at least over here in the Netherlands. I'd consider it dead and buried, had it not been for the fact that it never lived. SACD did very little here, DVD-A nothing, and currently they're both dead. I also have none. I'm watching Blu-Ray. Might be investing a bit in that... Of course DVD-A is dead, but DVD-Video containing audio won't catch up with this: http://dvd-a.info/Index.asp?stitle=neil+young Blu-Ray surely will but the above is available now. - Grant - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user

Well, you could probably do the arecord method. arecord -D copy -t wav -c 2 -f S24_BE -r 96000 audio_track.wav (unverified syntax) Set record to the PCM / VOL device (which I can only do in aumix for some reason). Set the gain / lever for PCM to 50% / tastes. And play the track. Of course it assumes your soundcard is capable, you have copy in .asoundrc, and your soundcard can play 24/96kHz. That I'd not feel acceptable. The ALSA file plugin is, but I remember trying that as well and it bombing out on something. Don't remeber what anymore and not going to retry right now but I believe it was eventually just an mplayer bug that I ran into and me shrugging and telling that piece of bleep to go bleep itself. So thanks, really, but dreadfully sorry, not going to aggrevate myself tonight endlessly struggling with the Linux videoscape. Will at some other time...

Not that I've had that issue. But you might only have some of your modules loaded. Or a mixmatch of versions loaded. Or some sort of udev or /dev/audio/ issues. Do you get sound on the main/default soundcard? Because it seems you got the same error on both cards. You might try hw:0,0 instead of just hw:0. Generally speaking hw:0,0 for playback and hw:0,1 for recording. I've seen issues like this (snd_ctl_open) when the /dev/ devices were not present.

For reference here's my Mobile Pre setup. From memory and cut and paste for the most part so grain of salt. And I used to have 2 mobile pre's. You might try using a liveCD like knoppix and see if it auto detects/configures your primary soundcard. Just to verify that at least that works under linux.

There's many parts to an alsa setup / configuration. Listed below are some of mine. Most of these are taken care of by your distro. Or at least should be.

I used udev to create the modules in /dev. I wasn't really given a choice with my current distros incarnation. I used to just run the ./snddevices script to mknod the audio devices.
