 So, a dummy read on the inbound connection gets it going.

Yes.

 Any idea why this is necessary? buffer pre-warm?

The input port isn't enabled before the first read to allow the
application to reconfigure the port's settings directly after opening
it.


Best regards,

This is the wrong list for the request.  Check ALSA's mailing lists and 
bugtracker.

If you send them a patch with the changes, they might be more inclined to 
do add it.  If you're not already familiar with Doxygen, it's really easy 
(...like 10 mins. and you're good to go).

[LAD] introducing l2ork

2009-10-23 Thread Ivica Ico Bukvic
Greetings all,

I wanted to share with you my latest Linux-based and Linuxaudio.org-related
project that has been sucking up most of my time over the past year or so to
the point it seemed as if I have disappeared off the face of the Earth.
Needless to mention it continues to alter my sleeping/eating patterns with
unprecedented aptitude and with no end in sight ;-).

http://l2ork.music.vt.edu/

Best wishes,

are they the ones with 10,000 spam messages a month? :) or did that
get fixed somehow?

Well, haven't heard much alsa-dev chatter on *this* channel. :-)

However, I'm guessing it's fixed because the stuff in the alsa-dev archive 
looks normal:


   http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Mailing-lists
   http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/

Likewise, looks like alsa-doc has been shut down and they're directing 
people to use alsa-dev or to talk to Jaroslav Kysela.


But, since I'm not subscribed to any of the lists, I suppose there may be 
some extra enhancements and enlargements for real subscribers.
