Package: sox Version: 12.17.9-1 Severity: normal
When attempting to play or record to an alsa device, sox fails with an ioctl error. In my case; [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sox msg0000.WAV -t alsa /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p sox: ioctl operation failed 22 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sox -t alsa /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p record.wav sox: Failed reading /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: ioctl operation failed 22 (I've tried with various options like -b, -w, etc. before the device name, with no effect) Further, sox will hang if any other alsa application is using the soundcard. As a comparison, other applications on my system use that alsa device fine, simultaneously (via dmix on the default pcm device). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15.4rt Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages sox depends on: ii libasound2 1.0.10-2 ALSA library ii libc6 2.3.5-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libmad0 0.15.1b-2.1 MPEG audio decoder library ii libogg0 1.1.3-2 Ogg Bitstream Library ii libvorbis0a 1.1.2-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libvorbisenc2 1.1.2-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libvorbisfile3 1.1.2-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi sox recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
