I have an embedded PC with ESS Solo 1 audio on the board. Many experiments with the standard linux drivers and OSS drivers caused all kinds of problems. Installing ALSA 0.9rc1 seems to have fixed almost everything.
I have tested duplex operation and it works, I do playback and recording at the same time. The two problems I have are this - Whenever I try to do 44.1 khz 16-bit stereo recording, the system freezes. I have to do a reboot. I can do 44.1 khz mono fine but 2-channel recording always locks the machine. I have tried this with arecord and no oss emulation, also with rec (sox) with the oss snd-pcm-oss driver. Same experience on both. This is a freshly compiled 2.4.18 kernel on slackware 8 and ALSA and everything else was compiled from source. Any ideas? Is anyone else doing CD quality recording on es1938? - The other issue is midi. The midi modules seem to load fine, but I haven't been able to playback midi files. When I try to use playmidi I get an error /dev/sequencer not find. Do I need to use an ALSA midi player? Or am I just missing something?
