I solved the sound problem in SqueezePlay by disabling pulseaudio while
squeezeplay runs. The following works for me on Ubuntu 11.10.
I first copied /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf to
/usr/share/alsa/alsa-nopulse.conf, so that is reads:
Code:
--------------------
sudo cp /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf /usr/share/alsa/alsa-nopulse.conf
--------------------
Then I commented the line with "/usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf" (line 11)
in alsa-nopulse.conf:
Code:
--------------------
# "/usr/share/alsa/pulse.conf"
--------------------
Then there is a squeezeplay.sh script in the bin directory of
squeezeplay which you can use to start squeezeplay. Edit the last line
so it reads:
Code:
--------------------
ALSA_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/share/alsa/alsa-nopulse.conf ./jive
--------------------
I also edited the file ~/.squeezeplay/userpath/settings/DesktopJive.lua
as described in
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=674248&postcount=3 to
select the right audio device. I had to choose another device for the
alsaEffectsDevice because it claims the output device and then
alsaPlaybackDevice can't use it anymore. I have:
Code:
--------------------
settings =
{mac="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx",uuid="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",alsaSampleSize=24,alsaPlaybackDevice="plughw:0,0",alsaEffectsDevice="plughw:0,1"}
--------------------
The server now also transcodes 352.8kHz flacs correctly to 176.4Hz!
