Hi group, For a 2.6.19.5 kernel on a PIII w/SBLive soundcard using snd-emu10k1 module. I emerged alsa-utils and mp3blaster.
Ran #rc-update add alsasound boot Ran alsaconf and let it write /etc/modules.d/alsa. It concluded with a tell-tale pop from the speakers and the message that my sound card was set up and ready to use. But mp3blaster won't play. Msg is "Failed to open sound device" Noticed under /dev/sound there was no 'audio' or 'dsp' nodes so I made them w/ mknod. No good, same msg. Set ENABLE_OSS_EMUL="no" in /etc/conf.d/alsasound and rebooted. Ditto. Is this a configuration problem or a soundcard problem or is mp3blaster to blame? FWIW modules loaded, alsamixer unmuted.
