So I have a Debian/stable box for a sound installation and I want to run pd with -nogui on it. But it is acting insane. Basically, when I run Pd with a GUI, everything works fine. When I add -nogui, pd can't read/write the audio devices. I've tried:

- ALSA and OSS
- root and other users
- Pd-extended 0.41.4 and 0.42.5 and Pd-vanilla 0.41.4

Here's what I get with OSS:
p...@arg:~$ pd -nogui /tmp/test.pd
/dev/dsp (read/write): Device or resource busy
(now will try write-only...)
/dev/dsp (writeonly): Device or resource busy
/dev/dsp (readonly): Device or resource busy
audio I/O stuck... closing audio


Here's what I get with ALSA:
p...@arg:~$ pd -alsa -nogui /tmp/test.pd
snd_pcm_open (input): Device or resource busy
snd_pcm_open (output): Device or resource busy

Any ideas?
