alsamixer seems to work without errors, but trying to play a sound using aplay yields the following output:
ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:866:(snd1_pcm_direct_initialize_slave) snd_pcm_hw_params_any failed ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1022:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to initialize slave aplay: main:608: audio open error: Invalid argument Thanks -------------------------------------------------- From: "Bill Unruh" <un...@physics.ubc.ca> Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2010 4:34 PM To: "Vladislav Rafael" <vlady.raf...@gmail.com> Cc: <alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net> Subject: Re: [Alsa-user] Sound doesn't work on embedded linux > You arfe trying to access using OSS.
