Hi all,
Brian, this email is regarding my bugreport, I send it to the list
cause maybe someone else can shed a light on this.
I found the cause of why gstreamer and friends aren't finding my
soundsystem as where osstest and catting a wave file to /dev/dsp0
works.
I did a 'truss rhytmbox' and came along this (no idea how I can track
this with dtrace as of yet, that'll be my next project):
/1: open("/dev/dsp", O_WRONLY|O_NONBLOCK) Err#2 ENOENT
So, apparently gstreamer expects /dev/dsp to be the sound device. It
isn't. At least not in oss-4.00-1009 build.
I am trying to downgrade oss now, to see if /dev/dsp was maybe
available in earlier versions.
For now, a work for me is to ln -s /dev/dsp0 to /dev/dsp. The mixer,
rhythmbox et all starts working after this.
Take care,
Patrick
