I am still having problems - after playing around with various options
(not just with local player, but also trying to get Audacity to get a
line-in input)
I broke too many things, so decided a reinstall was the best approach.
Now, I have a different issue in that I can't get localplayer to start
squeezlite - it seems it is a permissions problem,
(Is this going back to the squeezeboxserver user as a potential source
of issue?-
note: I have added squeezebox server to the audio group)
Code:
--------------------
Starting Squeezelite:
/var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/LocalPlayer/Bin/squeezelite-i386
-d all=debug -f /var/log/squeezeboxserver/localplayer.log

[12:16:37.283201] output_init:1540 unable to open output device
--------------------
ANY IDEAS AS TO HOW I RESOLVE THIS?
( I need some explicit guidance as my linux skills are limited - I am ex
Unix user but last used more than 15 years ago so need
reminding!!:confused:)
Also note your previous comment re allowing multiple users to access the
same audio device, how do I check / fix this, as I suspect this problem
will recurr when I have fixed starting squeezlite.
My audio device is the Aureon 5.1 - see attached.
