Basically, I'm trying to play a wav file and without any buffer underrun messages I still get very broken audio quality. Note that this ONLY happens when I have an alsaplayer attached to the same output channel ('channel56'), even if the player is stopped/paused. If I kill the alsaplayer process, then the output from aplay sounds fine. What am I missing here? Is there an option besides killing the alsaplayer process?
Here is the output from aplay: # aplay -D channel56 speak_festival.9.43.58.26.wav.new.wav Playing WAVE 'speak_festival.9.43.58.26.wav.new.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Mono and the file details: # file speak_festival.9.43.58.26.wav.new.wav speak_festival.9.43.58.26.wav.new.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, mono 44100 Hz Here is the important part of my asound.conf pcm.ice1712 { type hw card 0 device 0 } ctl.ice1712 { type hw card 0 device 0 } pcm.dmixer56 { type dmix ipc_key 1024 # must be same as for dmixer12 slave { # all parameters in this section must be same as for dmixer12 pcm "hw:0,0" period_time 0 period_size 1024 buffer_size 6553 rate 44100 } bindings.0 4 bindings.1 5 } pcm.channel56 { type plug slave.pcm "dmixer56" } -- Kirk Bauer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://linux.kaybee.org | www.autorpm.org | www.logwatch.org ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The Robotic Monkeys at ThinkGeek For a limited time only, get FREE Ground shipping on all orders of $35 or more.
