hum, correct :) Vincent, that should not be required... Martin, Daniel, did you change something to alsa recently?

@Vincent: When you receive the error with rb totem-gst, please get the output from ``lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*''. Are you up to date with Dapper? If not, please update dist-upgrade accordingly. Also, please attach the contents of ~/.asoundrc* and /etc/asound.conf (if the latter exists, i.e., you created one). -- [Dapper] Won't start if Rhythmbox is running https://launchpad.net/bugs/44462 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Just noticed (about totem-gst not xine) : all the messages I got in the terminal when it failed to start (ALSA stuff), well, I get exactly the same when totem does start !

[Bug 44462] Re: [Dapper] Won't start if Rhythmbox is running
What appears to be suspicious is that rb is using /dev/dsp, which is ALSA's OSS emulation device. By default Dapper uses ALSA (not OSS or even its emulation). What is the output from ``asoundconf list'' in a Terminal? What is the Default Output Plugin set to in the Audio tab when ``gstreamer-properties'' is invoked from a Terminal? -- [Dapper] Won't start if Rhythmbox is running https://launchpad.net/bugs/44462 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 44462] Re: [Dapper] Won't start if Rhythmbox is running
Thanks Daniel ! :-) I did that, and no problem anymore ! :o) I tried it with both totem-gst and totem-xine, and both start and play just fine even if rhytmbox is already playing a song. What I don't understand, is that I did check in System-Preferences- Sound, and the default soundcard option at the bottom of the dialog, was properly set to 'nForce' (the on-board sound chip). So maybe the sound preference dialogue has a bug and fails to select the selected sound device ?? You tell me... in the meantime, I am marking the present bug as fixed ! :-) ** Changed in: totem (Ubuntu) Status: Needs Info = Fix Released -- [Dapper] Won't start if Rhythmbox is running https://launchpad.net/bugs/44462 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Actually this report needs to be marked Rejected, since we didn't fix anything... :-) Oops sorry, I misinterpreted the terminology... I thought rejected meant We don't want to fix it and/or we deny the problem, and Fix released meant, well, problem solved. Not very easy for non-developers to know what the terminolgy exactly means and how to use it.

Thanks for your bug. Does it happen with totem-xine if you move /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.1/xineplug_ao_out_arts.so away? You can read http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138830 on the topic Sebastien, upstream recommends to drop that plugin on http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327928, what do you think about it? ** Changed in: totem (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- [Dapper] Won't start if Rhythmbox is running https://launchpad.net/bugs/44462 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
