Yesterday I was having problems with a few packages, like openoffice, because of java issues. The advice I found to correct the problem was to run python-updater, which I did. It reemerged 33 packages one of which was alsa-libs. It reemerged alsa-lib, it did not upgrade it. All the emerges finished without errors, but now the sound doesn't work. I've tried reemerging all the alsa stuff but no joy. I have the alsa drivers in the kernel and I'm using alsa-libs-1.0.16 When I try running madplay -v Music/Megamix/19.mp3 I get the following error: MPEG Audio Decoder 0.15.2 (beta) - Copyright (C) 2000-2004 Robert Leslie et al. ALSA lib dlmisc.c:118:(snd_dlsym_verify) unable to verify version for symbol _snd_pcm_plug_open ALSA lib pcm.c:2108:(snd_pcm_open_conf) symbol _snd_pcm_plug_open is not defined inside [builtin] audio: No such device or address
I found a thread on the gentoo forums discussing this problem. It seems some pcm plugins need to be specified. So I specified all of them! reemerged alsa-libs and tools, utils, etc. Still the same error message! I've run out of ideas, anybody know what the problem is?
