------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-12 09:27 ------- I have a problem in the original 9.1RC2 kernel that alsa produces stuttered sound. When I replace the default snd-<name> modules with self compiled alsa-drivers-0.9.0rc7 it works OK. I suspect it can have something to do with compiler flags. I remember compiling an mpc-plugin for xmms a while ago with "-O2 -march=i586" and it sounded horrible. Removing the -march resolved the issue. I compiled the alsa-driver with CFLAGS=-O2 only and I use the snd-emu10k1 on my SBLive card. Peder ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: As the summary states, ALSA output simply doesn't work on this card in current Cooker kernels. I expect the last ALSA update broke it (it used to work fine). The card uses the snd-ens1371 driver. Any program which attempts to output to ALSA natively freezes as soon as it attempts to play sound, and cannot be exited normally, even ctrl-c fails to work - has to be 'kill'ed. This has been verified with xmms in ALSA mode (using the xmms-alsa plugin), totem, xine with the ALSA plugin, and ogg123 (which attempts to output in ALSA mode by default). However, sound works with the ALSA driver if its OSS emulation is used - i.e., I can get sound perfectly well with any program set to output in OSS mode, using the ALSA driver. None of the programs I checked gave any error output, they just froze. This is quite a popular legacy card. Can't find anything in the ALSA mailing lists about this.
