aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav

plays here. I used

alsactl store -f aplay-audible1.state

to save my alsa settings at

http://iki.fi/lindi/openmoko/aplay-audible1.state

Can you please compare this against yours?

Can you try mplayer first? I can install xfmedia too if it really has
some openmoko specific issue but I'd like to hear if mplayer works for
you first.

You mean you don't like the tune? ;-) I don't like it either and it's
also non-free so it's going to change anyway. If you know python you
can fix this from the source code (apt-get source fso-frameworkd and
search for ".sid").

That is bit more complex issue. It would definitely help if we could
record some standard test call.

Yes AFAIK you need pulseaudio around to make that sound problem on
resume.  Sounds resumes fine, even resuming an interrupted playing
action, if pulseaudio isn't around.

Sorry I should have mentioned this. You do not need to use mwester's
kernel. I am running a much more recent kernel from buildhost.openmoko.org
(July 26 I believe) and it works fine. The GPS also works very well.

You just have to have the pactl tool and the two scripts that mwester

Speaking of suspend/resume, I'm also wondering if other people are 
having battery problems?  Whenever I wake my FR up from suspend, my 
battery seems practically dead (or a lot lower than it was) even if it 
only resumed for ~1 hr.

Unfortunately there's no GPS/SD fix in this kernel:

Re: sound

2008-07-28 Thread W.Kenworthy
ok, thats fixed it (changed from dim/lock to dim only and rebooted)

Whats the difference between dim and dim/lock - cant see anything so far
as they look the same?

Also brings up the point - if I am in a meeting and want vibrate only is
it possible to change back and forward between vibrate and ring/vibrate?
- or do I have to turn GSM off?

Do you have it set to "dim, then lock"?  In my experience, a suspend
kills sound out of the speaker.  Making a call seems to restore the
sound.  Others have found that rebooting (or just restarting X)
restores sound.  There's a thread on the support list about this.
Perhaps you're seeing the same thing.
