After upgrading to Cygwin 1.7.26, trying to open the audio device /dev/dsp fails with "No such file or directory".
This error appears in the log file of mpd (the music player daemon available from Cygwin Ports), but there is also a simple test case: $ ls -l /dev/dsp crw-rw-rw- 1 ds None 14, 3 Dec 1 01:12 /dev/dsp $ date > /dev/dsp -bash: /dev/dsp: No such file or directory The problem affects both the 64- and the 32-bit version and disappears after downgrading to Cygwin 1.7.25. - Dirk -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
