Package: saytime
Version: 1.0-26
Severity: wishlist

I couldn't figure out how to make saytime work with my environment,
where the sound device is often take over by pulseaudio.

This is normally not a problem because most stuff talks to pulseaudio
nowadays... But somehow saytime (or sox?) doesn't:

I have tried various things like:

saytime -t pulseaudio # sox fails
saytime -t pulse # sox says "missing filename"
padsp saytime # sox says device busy

Is there a way to make this work?

hi,

as previously said, saytime works for me over pulseaudio, plus noone
else reported this problem, thus I'm closing this bug after two years of
waiting for moreinfo...
