Question: I can't get aplay to work reliably with a USB audio adapter. It works most of the time, but every once in a while it crashes and hangs, I can't play again. The only fix seems to be to cycle the power on the BeagleBone Black.
Any help on how to debug this? I know linux but have never debugged someone else's kernel crashes. ---------------------- Linux beaglebone 4.1.15-ti-rt-r43 #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Thu Jan 21 20:13:58 UTC 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux BeagleBone Black rev C USB audio dongle from Sabrent, or from Syba (I tried both and the both cause the same problem). I believe they both have the same internal hardware but that may not matter. I haven't altered the kernel or cape in any way (I installed on microSD using bone-debian-8.3-lxqt-4gb-armhf-2016-01-24-4gb.img) I have run "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" If I play some files in a loop like this, it eventually crashes and aplay hangs. It is hard to repeat but it is repeatable for ((i=0; i<1; i++)) do aplay -Ddefault:Device /opt/sounds/wav/yipe.wav aplay -Ddefault:Device /opt/sounds/wav/fart_z.wav aplay -Ddefault:Device
