Try running fuser /dev/snd/* and see if you get any clues. For example, I get: /dev/snd/controlC2: 22203 /dev/snd/pcmC2D0c: 22203m /dev/snd/pcmC2D0p: 22203m /dev/snd/seq: 4698 8673 22200 22203 Then you can look at what the processes are in various ways. Keeping it in the command line realm, you'd ps 22203 and see PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND 22203 ? SLsl 34:02 /usr/bin/jackd -R -dalsa -dhw:2 -r48000 -p256 -n2 -S that JACK is hogging /dev/snd/controlC2 on my box. I have no bliffin clue what any of the names in /dev/snd mean, but this can still be helpful for rooting out the card hog. -- D.
