Thanks for the detailed report.


I have fixed the obvious errors but I'm not sure what the problem is with the rate_convert example. I have left it as is for now.




------------------------------------------------------ 3. The rate conversion plug documentation (or code?) is broken.

I'm not sure if this is a documentation bug or a driver/alsa-lib bug.

My .asoundrc at this point closely follows the documentation (with
corrections as noted in bug#2) and looks like:

pcm.ac97 {
        type hw
        card 0
        device 0
}

pcm_slave.sl2 {
        pcm ac97
        rate 44100
}

pcm.rate_convert {
        type rate
        slave sl2
}

The documentation says: "Now you can call this newly created virtual device by: aplay -D
rate_convert test.wav"


But when I try that, I get this error:

Playing WAVE 'test.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo
aplay: set_params:805: Broken configuration for this PCM: no configurations available

Note that "aplay -D ac97 test.wav" works, but plays too fast (at 48000),
and gives the warning "please, try the plug plugin (-Dplug:ac97)". If I
do that, it works perfectly.

So I think the documentation is wrong, or at least incomplete, or rate
conversion does not work.

Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street. Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before the arrival of U.S. troops.
