Hello list, I was with my sound (alsa) work perfectly on my laptop, but for an unremembered reason I ran alsoconf as root. It causes the strange behavior of alsplayer, aplay, etc., to stop working for normal users. They only run for root. I checked groups and permissions, and it seems ok. All users are in group audio, as well as related devices and proc files. I do not want to install all the system again, so I wonder if anyone has any idea of what is happening... If I run aplay, for example, I get the following error message:
~ $ aplay wavs/scieh.wav ALSA lib confmisc.c:769:(parse_card) cannot find card '' 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:2144:(snd_pcm_open_noupdate) Unknown PCM default aplay: main:545: audio open error: No such device The wierd thing is that as root, I get no error and the sound is played perfectly. Also, sound in skype was ok, but now, it does not work too.
