Hi. Have you tried using amixer? In some cases I have seen some controls that can only be found in alsamixer and that are not available in amixer. It may apply the other way around. From the looks on the error from LIBPCM, your PCM seems to be in use. Try terminating all audio I/O before trying to use Xine. Also have you tried other playback aps such as Zinf? Good luck,
Igor May you code in the power of the source, may the kernel, libraries, and utilities be with you, throughout all distributions until the end of the epoch.
