The only things I can do are up- and downgrades and deinstallations and installations. In the meantime I had another case without sound while playing an mp4, but identical libsndfile1 state (after 2nd upgrade).

In the 1st case, no sound, the error message: 'Device or resource busy' points towards another running sound application, but no such application was running. But I tried to open a sound file in Iceweasel (a.k.a. Firefox) before I started mplayer and Iceweasel was still running. I think if sound in mplayer works or not does not depend on the libsndfile1 version, but rather on playing sound files in Iceweasel before running mplayer or not. >From my point of view this bug is not related to libsndfile1 and this report can be closed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
