Well, I tried going back to the original configuration (no alsa-base, no sound device) and running the postinst by hand, and I haven't gotten it to hang again like that. ALSA lib conf.c:3982:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device ALSA lib pcm.c:2145:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default mpd: asyncns.c:706: handle_response: Assertion `length == resp->length' failed. There is a few seconds delay between the second and third lines, but not the several minutes (IIRC) hang I saw the first time. If I run mpd by hand, I get: No "audio_output" defined in config file Attempt to detect audio output device Attempting to detect a alsa audio device ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' ALSA lib conf.c:3510:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_card_driver returned error: No such device ALSA lib confmisc.c:392:(snd_func_concat) error evaluating strings ALSA lib conf.c:3510:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_concat returned error: No such device ALSA lib confmisc.c:1251:(snd_func_refer) error evaluating name ALSA lib conf.c:3510:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such device ALSA lib conf.c:3982:(snd_config_expand) Evaluate error: No such device ALSA lib pcm.c:2145:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default Error opening default alsa device: No such device Attempting to detect a oss audio device Error opening OSS device "/dev/dsp": No such file or directory Error opening OSS device "/dev/sound/dsp": No such file or directory Attempting to detect a pulse audio device mpd: asyncns.c:706: handle_response: Assertion `length == resp->length' failed. zsh: abort mpd --no-daemon --stdout Looks to me like the hang I saw may have been when it was trying to fall back to pulse audio. Perhaps that hits the network? I get the same behavior with alsa-base installed and the usb sound not plugged in. > dolphy:~:0$ mpc outputs > Output 1 (default detected output) is enabled mpd isn't listening for connections yet so this doesn't connect. -- see shy jo
