DIFF 1:
In pcm.c, pcm->buffer can be 0. Since pcm_direct.c calls the function snd_pcm_sw_params_get_silence_threshold() with value 0, the assert fires. Now it's quite possible that I'm getting this wrong, but if pcm->buffer_size can be zero, than this is an error. I was getting this assert when the Asterisk PBX package (www.asteriskpbx.com) tried to load both OSS and ALSA -- I think incorrectly, but that's another problem.
This diff works for me -- xine works, xmms works, play [sox] works, and asterisk no longer asserts -- but that might just mean that I'm courting some other trouble.
$ cvs diff pcm.c Index: pcm.c =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/alsa/alsa-lib/src/pcm/pcm.c,v retrieving revision 1.255 diff -r1.255 pcm.c 5476c5476 < assert(val < pcm->buffer_size); --- > assert(val <= pcm->buffer_size);
DIFF 2:
Alsamixer simply won't compile without being told to add the [n]curses library. However, the configure.in code that generated the "-lnucurses" for use by configure and then the Makefile was commented out for reasons unknown. Restoring that code lets me compile alsamixer.
