I usually don't have any problems with sound. Now I installed the program Praat (http://www.fon.hum.uva.nl/praat/download_linux.html) version 5.3.2-1. When I want to play a sound, it doesn't work. When I open Praat via the command line and try to play a sound, I get the following error: Expression 'snd_pcm_hw_params_set_buffer_size_near( pcm, hwParams, &lowLatency )' failed in 'pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 415 I tried to follow the sound troubleshooting advice here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure but it didn't help so far. Does anybody know why I get this error, and what I can do about it? Thank you for your help!
