Well the good news is my ALSA is playing sound, the bad news is I have no idea how I did it. I have been pounding my head against the wall for some time, finally started an strace on aplay where it seemed to stall on open("/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p", O_RDWR) RTFW I stumbled on a few others having the same issue, but no real fixes (most otheres seemed to have a remnant of OSS running which I do not think I did) Well download ltrace and looked at aplay again, and low and behold the sweet sounds of Orbinson drifted from the basement (I am building a headless play system) Well the output from strace before and after looks almost identical except for set_tid_address(0x4023d0c8) = 7286 | set_tid_address(0x4023d0c8) = 6472 with the 7286 being the one that works, this call seems to have something to do with threading. Not sure if it has any relevance. So the only thing I did is apt-get ltrace and running it on aplay. Any ideas on what may have changed?
