Package: timidity-daemon
Version: 2.13.2-37
Severity: normal
I just discovered this bug in testing. At boot, timidity failed to
start as it used to, and I tracked this down to speech-dispatcher
(version 0.6.7-8) keeping the ALSA sound device busy. Here is an
example on how to reproduce the problem, by first stopping timidity,
then starting speech-dispatcher and last calling start-stop-daemon the
same way the init.d script is calling it, to get the messages
suppressed during boot:
r...@tjener:~# /etc/init.d/timidity stop
* Stopping TiMidity++ ALSA midi emulation... [ ok ]
r...@tjener:~# /etc/init.d/speech-dispatcher start
* Starting Speech Dispatcher speech-dispatcher
[Mon May 17 07:56:29 2010 : 126858] speechd: Speech Dispatcher 0.6.7 starting
[Mon May 17 07:56:29 2010 : 127170] speechd: Directory .speech-dispatcher not
found in home
[ ok ]
r...@tjener:~# fuser -v /dev/snd/pcmC0D*
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: speech-dispatcher 6833 F...m sd_espeak
r...@tjener:~# start-stop-daemon --start --chuid timidity --quiet --exec
/usr/bin/timidity --pidfile /var/run/timidity/timidity.pid -- -Os -iAD
r...@tjener:~# Can't open pcm device 'default'.
