Input us the Mpeg Layer 1/2/3 and it's enabled. Output, i've tried both liboss and libesd because some people were saying that liboss is locked by the Gnome Sound Manager sometimes. -D On Thu, 2001-12-13 at 05:38, Courtney Thomas wrote: > Didier Malenfant wrote: > > > > On Wed, 2001-12-12 at 18

Just redirected to the list - the output doesn't help me, but someone else may have an idea. Just for info, here's the output to the strace of the play program. It hangs on the last wait4 but it seems like whatever was writing the trace info just got stopped in its tracks before that line was fin

Tried it. Both 'play sound.wav' and the 'cat > /dev/dsp' just hang there with no sound coming out. I don't thing it's a permission problem, I just don't know where to attack the problem from. -D On Wed, 2001-12-12 at 18:31, Courtney Thomas wrote: > Didier Malenfant wrote: > > > > gmix reports a

Nope, just tried that too. I also, as someone suggested, tried to just cat a raw file to /dev/dsp and that justs hangs. I wish I could find the right steps to get an idea of where the problem lies. -D On Wed, 2001-12-12 at 13:17, Courtney Thomas wrote: > Didier, > > Check your preferences by r

I tried both and no luck. What happens in xmms is that the song/wav file (I've tried both) doesn't even start playing. I hit play and it stops right away. Is there anything I can do to test the sound seperatly from xmms? cat a file to /dev/dsp -D On Tue, 2001-12-11 at 23:24, Cameron Matheso

I just did that to be sure and it still does the same thing. Is there any basic thing I can do to test the sound without using XMMS? that would enable me to make sure it's not just an XMMS problem. -D On Wed, 2001-12-12 at 06:28, Courtney Thomas wrote: > Didier Malenfant wrote: > > > > On Mon,
