Public bug reported:
After having installed mpd 0.19.12-1 and succesfully played music with
it, it remains impossible to play sound as the logged user, except if
manually using the dmix pluggin.
In othe words, when nothing is playing, this does not output any sound,
but does not produce error:
$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
Lecture WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little
Endian, Fréquence 48000 Hz, Mono
But this works:
$ aplay -D plug:dmix /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
Lecture WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little
Endian, Fréquence 48000 Hz, Mono
If mpd is told to play music, then the first command does not output any
sound, but returns no error:
$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
Lecture WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little
Endian, Fréquence 48000 Hz, Mono
BUT, the second command now returns an error:
$ aplay -D plug:dmix /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1029:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
aplay: main:722: erreur à l'ouverture audio: Périphérique ou ressource occupé
The expected default behaviour is that software dmixing should work for the
logged user, while playing mpd.
