Hi everyone, ok, I'm trying to get sound out of my Creative SoundBlaster MP3+ (external, USB).
So far, all the logs show me that it's being recognized by snd-usb-audio, at least: -- # lsusb: ... Bus 001 Device 003: ID 041e:3010 Creative Technology, Ltd Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0409:0059 NEC Corp.

Instead, this is what i get in a console: > ** WARNING **: alsa_free(): snd_pcm_start() failed: Broken pipe This message is outputted infinitely until I kill -9 the player. Meanwhile, the same happens in the kernel log with the following message: > cannot submit datapipe for urb 0, err = -38 This is also being outputted infinitely. - using kernel 2.6.11-rc1-mm1 After upgrading, I surprisingly do hear sound, however it's overlayed with a kind of choppy "noise": 3 x "pop", pause, 3x "pop", pause, ... this scheme loops approx. 3x/sec. I've already tried using mmap mode and/or software mixing and playing with aplay or mplayer. Nothing helps. Any ideas? Thanks, Artjom -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
