Good time of the day, Raffaele.
I could not answer on Your last letter so I have started a new thread. Among other You wrote: > you should use dmix with the 'ipc_key_add_uid' parameter set to false > to let multiple users share the same device. The problem now is that I can not achieve multi user SB access. Or rahter I would say it is but working strange way. - I can play FLAC w/ mplayer2 under one user, at the same time I can pause the playing and start watching movie w/ mplayer2 under another user. - All works. But in case no app.s are using SB, I run under yet another user jackd, run an MIDI editor MusE, then quit it (jackd is still running), I start mplayer2 for FLAC under the first user - it refuses to play until I kill jackd from under the third user. Please, do not ask me for the configuration of the three users - just let's suppose this is the initial situation. In other words I see: 2 mplayer2 under 2 users at the same time can share SB, whereas 1 mplayer2 and 1 jackd under 2 users can not share SB. All these three users are in the audio group that has its record in /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf /etc/asound.conf : # This is commented out because if enabled - PCM ceases to work, only Master works; whereas when disabled - both work. #pcm.!default { # type plug # slave.pcm "dmixer" #} pcm.dsp0 { type plug slave.pcm "dmixer" } pcm.dmixer { type dmix ipc_key 1024 # the key must be unique ipc_key_add_uid 0 # Multiusage ipc_perm 0660 # permissions - octal notation slave { pcm "hw:0,0" period_time 0 period_size 2048 buffer_size 8192 rate 44100 } } ctl.dmixer { type hw card 0 } Do You have any comments on my setup?
