AF_pre: af format: 2 bps, 2 ch, 44100 hz, little endian signed int
AF_pre: 44100Hz 2ch Signed 16-bit (Little-Endian)
alsa-init: requested format: 44100 Hz, 2 channels, Signed 16-bit (Little-Endian)
alsa-init: soundcard set to spdif
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
alsa-init: unable to set periodsize: Invalid argument
Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.
Audio: no sound
i do not have a .asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf file. just
using the defaults that show up when i load the snd-cs46xx module.
if i run mplayer w/ no -ao option and load the snd-pcm-oss
module i can hear the output on my stereo (via the spdif optical cable)
thanks
