i'm having problems getting splay to work with ASLA on the Pepper Pad

can't get MP3 playback to work via ALSA.
If this is a Helix ALSA device-related problem, I'll work with you to
resolve it.
daniel -
thanks for the detailed response!
What is the version of your ALSA?
rpm -q --info alsa-lib
on my FC4 destop, i'm running alsa-lib-1.0.10-3.RC4.
on the pepper pad, i'm running 1.0.11rc4.
There were two check-ins 11 days ago to Helix ALSA device code:
http://lists.helixcommunity.org/pipermail/audio-dev/2006-October/000776.html
http://lists.helixcommunity.org/pipermail/audio-dev/2006-October/000775.html
ok, i'd seen these checkins and was going to investigate them next...
Could you do the following steps to trouble-shoot the problem?
1. Check if your system's ALSA configuration is working:
speaker-test -c1 --device default
on both my desktop and the pepper pad, this produces pink noise in the
left channel.
speaker-test -c2 --device default
for both platforms, the pink noise alternates back 'n forth between the
speakers.
speaker-test -c2 --device default --rate 48000
same results as the last test.
speaker-test -c2 --device default --rate 44100
no output.
2. A quick check if ALSA on your system is not set to 48000Hz Sampling
Rate.
Change/Add the last line in this block to the relevant file used by your
player:
~/.helix/HelixSDK_1_0:
~/.helix/HelixSDK_10_0:
~/.realplayerrc:
~/.hxplayerrc:
AlsaVaryingSampleRate=1
Now, play a clip to check if this fixed the playback using ALSA.
that did the trick!
how come this wasn't handled under the covers by ALSA??
thanks,
