In that case it should be a simple issue with the way I'm using the API then. Since I can't reproduce the problem using aplay I've suspected this. I did send the main part of code loop earlier in the thread, but if you like I can send the whole application to you or to another willing API guru to just run and see if you get the same problem. Essentially it's a very basic alsa application.Am I sending these queries about the operation of alsa through the API to the right place ? I'm trying to use alsa for a real scientific
application and I'm starting to worry it simply isn't ready yet.
the API is ready. the documentation is not. some of us have been using ALSA to develop serious audio applications for several years. there are no substantive issues with the API at this time.
I understand. I'm looking for any help I can get since I have already tried everything I can think of.your question has nothing to do with the state of the API and everything to do with people's workloads and their interest in solving yet another common problem with audio software (the problem you're describing has happened to me often, and can be caused by several different things in your code).
However, it is possible you will get many more annoying questions very like mine with the lack of documentation, especially with alsa now being included in the latest kernel.
ooh no scrapping means far worse than that! It means Windoze.....i would point out that "scrapping ALSA" would be pretty stupid when its the standard audio API in the 2.5/2.6 kernel.
(OSS can't do what we need anyway.)
