After a lot of googling, trial and error I solved the issue downgrading libasound2 and related packages to version 1.1.6:
libasound2_1.1.6-1_amd64.deb libasound2_1.1.6-1_i386.deb libasound2-data_1.1.6-1_all.deb libasound2-dev_1.1.6-1_amd64.deb libasound2-plugins_1.1.6-1+b1_amd64.deb libasound2-plugins_1.1.6-1+b1_i386.deb Something is really bad with current version 1.1.7 of libasound2. Hope this helps someone. El lun., 5 nov. 2018 a las 13:55, Miguel A. Vallejo (<ea4...@gmail.com>) escribió: > > Hello. > > I upgraded a machine to sid.
