I'm running xmms 1.2.10 which I compiled on Slackware 9.1. When I play a subdirectory set up with shift-L, the music _appears_ to play but I get no actual audio.
I've checked a lot of things but seem to be missing one critical ingredient. I have another nearly identical system "master" which is my working system. Xmms plays fine on that one but not on "mp3server" to be. So far I can't tell what is different. What could I be missing? Some dumb thing I bet. This is what I've done so far: ---------------------------------------------- Removed oss sound: I _thought_ I removed the oss sound package but cannot find it in /var/log/removed_packages. Can't find it with pkgtool either. I'm pretty sure it's gone since all my modules that concern sound start with snd- except soundcore of course. Used alsaconf to setup alsa. Set Master, MasterM and PCM pretty high in alsamixer and did alsactl store. Sound plays fine when KDE starts. The ~/.xmms/config is the same in both systems. Output plugin is set for alsa not oss. Did chmod a+rw in /dev/mixer* /dev/dsp* and /dev/audio* Made user lba a member of the sys group. Used shift-L to select a subdirectory and I can see the title and graphics as each song "plays" but I don't hear anything. I copied over the "Master" ~/.asoundrc which did not exist on "mp3server" for some reason. I used mpg321 to play an mp3 file and it sounded just fine. Maybe the problem is with xmms? I've run out of ideas. Any help appreciated.
