Product: kernel-2.4.21.0.12mdk Component: libsasl2-plug-ntlm Summary: ALSA output broken on SB16 PCI in current kernel Version: 1-1mdk Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] As the summary states, ALSA output simply doesn't work on this card in current Cooker kernels. I expect the last ALSA update broke it (it used to work fine). The card uses the snd-ens1371 driver. Any program which attempts to output to ALSA natively freezes as soon as it attempts to play sound, and cannot be exited normally, even ctrl-c fails to work - has to be 'kill'ed. This has been verified with xmms in ALSA mode (using the xmms-alsa plugin), totem, xine with the ALSA plugin, and ogg123 (which attempts to output in ALSA mode by default). However, sound works with the ALSA driver if its OSS emulation is used - i.e., I can get sound perfectly well with any program set to output in OSS mode, using the ALSA driver. None of the programs I checked gave any error output, they just froze. This is quite a popular legacy card. Can't find anything in the ALSA mailing lists about this. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
