It is an error message that occurs on some hardware when libasound2 fails to initialize the hardware. From the upstream commit logs I understand that upstream themselves cannot really reproduce this probe error themselves, but users report this to be fixed in the next alsa-lib release. Moreover, the easy workaround is to the pulseaudio output module. >From the current information I don't consider this issue RC, and addtionally, not a problem in the vlc package. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
