A short update: I am now nearly sure it is a driver issue. I was in contact with the daphile developer, and his answer regarding permissions:
> Your problem is definitely not permission related as you log in as root. > Daphile does not use /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc, so there isn't any > default audio device defined. You should use ALSA hw interface directly, > eg. hw:1,0 Further, for understandable reasons he will not support hardware with old, proprietary drivers. So it's up to me to figure out how to install the driver for the internal Realtek ALC662 card (or an USB soundcard I still have, a M-Audio Transit USB, with drivers packed in madfuload). But I will need to ask in some Gentoo forums, since I know more Debian & Ubuntu, and it seems to work a bit different... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ant!'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66046 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=49584 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
