Hi,
I noticed that when running `aucat -l', on some of my machines sndio
apps would play the first sample buffer and then stop (for example,
ogg123, but also sdlmame).
These apps become unkillable by SIGTERM (they are killable by SIGKILL)
until aucat is killed.
I found that running `aucat -l -m play` solves this issue, is it normal?
It happens on VMware virtual machines but also on a real i386 with an
auich sound chipset (unfortunatly I haven't had the chance to test the
`-m play' workaround on it).
Below is dmesg/audioctl/mixerctl of the VMware VM.
I guess this is because my sound hw doesn't support fullduplex, as
advertised in audioctl (why fullduplex and full_duplex anyway?), but
shouldn't aucat work around this automatically? (I'm just playing sound,
not recording at the same time).
