Yes.....you can remove all from .asoundrc file or remove all except the default part and have full functionality. After, my .asoundrc was empty and I could play and rec also.
I'm searching if some apps (like Unreal, wineX games) can use simultaneous sounds with xmms or mplayer, like aplay.
Any help is welcome.
Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wade Nelson wrote:
The problem is that it doesn't work like it should.... I have xmms alsa plugin set to default, xmms & madplay won't work concurrently, same with mplayer, etc... for example, with xmms playing, and executing madplay, madplay will simply wait for xmms to stop before starting.... mplayer and unreal tournament will complain about /dev/dsp being busy or some other error... xmms & aplay, mplayer & aplay, madplay & aplay, these will work together. multiple xmms instances will work together also... perhaps this is a app config problem? it is my understanding that all apps should use 'default' by default naturally, but it doesn't seem to be working. If this is the case, can I safely remove everything from asoundrc except the default part and still have full functionality (playback/record, audacity is important also)?

Problem solved (for aplay, but no for emulated games with wineX). To use xmms with aplay, only that you need is change your config file .asoundrc and set alsa plugin for xmms with sound device "default" (go to options ==> preferences ==> configure (when select alsa plugin) ==> change to "default"...It doesn't work with "NVidia Nforce 2 (hw:0,0) in sound device of another.
Then you can use xmms with mplayer and aplay....all at same time (multiple mplayer, with xmms, and multiple aplay works too).
System Information: ==========
Card: nforce 2 Chip: Realtek ALC650 rev 3 Motherboard: Asus A7N8XE-Deluxe Alsa version: 1.0.3 Kernel: 2.4.18 Based System: RH9
Compile information ================
I compile and install alsa version 1.0.3 like this:
alsa-driver: ./configure --with-cards=intel8x0 --with-sequencer=yes; make; make install
alsa-lib: ./configure; make; make install
alsa-oss: ./configure; make; make install
alsa-utils: ./configure; make; make install
.asoundrc config file: ================
And my .asoundrc (in home dir) file is this:
##################################### ### .asoundrc for nforce2 apu
pcm.nforce-hw { type hw card 0 }
pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "nforce" }
pcm.nforce {
type dmix
ipc_key 1234
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"
period_time 0
period_size 1024
buffer_size 4096
}
}
#bindings { ==> with this options, doesn't work simultaneous sounds <===
#0 0 #1 1
#}
#}
ctl.nforce-hw { type hw card 0 } #####################################
Bye. ------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have my nforce2 mobo (mcp-t southbridge) set up to use dmix, and I can play aplay on 2 seperate consoles at once. However I cannot play aplay and another source, nor two other sources at once. Example: cannot play aplay & madplay simultaneously; aplay & XMMS doesn't work; XMMS & madplay do not work.... This seems to be no matter what settings or output I choose for those apps. I'm running kernel 2.6.3-mm3, with alsa intel8x0 driver compiled as modules, latest alsa-libs & alsa-utils, with OSS emulation, and everything is working perfectly except for this.
dmesg reports no problems, and aplay -v reports nothing strange. A 2nd source will simply wait for the first one to finish before playing.
My asoundrc:
pcm.nforce-hw { type hw card 0 }
pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "nforce" }
pcm.nforce { type dmix ipc_key 1234 slave { pcm "hw:0,0" period_time 0 period_size 1024 buffer_size 4096 rate 44100 } }
ctl.nforce-hw { type hw card 0 }
I had this problem on my Epox 8RDA+ (nf2), as well as my new DFI NF2 Ultra Infinity (nf2 also). Any suggestions/ideas/solutions?
