Lorne,
Pulse sounds like a good path to follow as the built in music player will
grab the USB card and play files from the desktop without a problem.
I disabled pulse by making autospawn = no in the etc/pulse/client.conf
That killed all audio and made Rivendell have no audio resources. So I
changed it back and everything is working again.
Below is my etc/alsa/pulse-default.conf if that's any help:
# PulseAudio plugin configuration
# $Id: pulse-default.conf,v 1.3 2008/03/09 15:50:49 lkundrak Exp $
# Let's create a virtual device "pulse" for mixer and PCM
pcm.pulse {
type pulse
hint {
description "PulseAudio Sound Server"
}
}
ctl.pulse {
type pulse
hint {
description "PulseAudio Sound Server"
}
}
# Let's make it the default!
pcm.!default {
type pulse
hint {
description "Default"
}
}
ctl.!default {
type pulse
hint {
description "Default"
}
}
Also as mentioned before by Robert, I tried to change my asound.conf to
have the rate of 44100 but that didn't fix it.
Thanks again
Brad
