After the alsa-lib 1.2.14-2 → 1.2.15-1 upgrade, all of my software stopped outputting any sound. I noticed it because I have a mpd server playing music on that computer, and music stopped right after the upgrade. When I tried mpv instead, it showed an explicit error about ALSA: $ mpv http://radio.vv221.fr/ ● Audio --aid=1 (opus 2ch 48000 Hz) ALSA lib pcm.c:2722:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) [error.pcm] Unknown PCM cards.pcm.default [ao/alsa] Playback open error: No such file or directory [ao] Failed to initialize audio driver 'alsa' Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound. Audio: no audio Exiting... (Errors when loading file) Reverting to alsa-lib 1.2.14-2, everything goes back to normal. On my system, it means installing the 1.2.14-2 version of: - - libasound2-data - - libasound2t64 - - libatopology2t64 I run an ALSA-only setup, without PipeWire, without PulseAudio. I have not tried rebooting the system after the alsa-lib upgrade (this computer is dual-classed as a server, reboots are inconvenient). - -- System Information: Debian Release: forky/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 6.17.8+deb14-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: OpenRC (via /run/openrc), PID 1: init LSM: AppArmor: enabled -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iIYEARYKAC4WIQSUsdxM90hewW6X7Jhja3j5HOuA2AUCaTq2URAcZGViaWFuQHZ2 MjIxLmZyAAoJEGNrePkc64DYapAA/RStEtzGOK+rJE7Od0ErPO2rMvMBUG3+a+nK ZKJ7Oe5NAP9EB5oBdQM0o1vKjs6ge5AtrCpZFSQioGmYA/JGYrZmBw== =qQZk -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
