Good morning all, I've been trying to ditch pulse on my system and use apulse instead. However I've run into a snag:

Code:

[apulse] [error] do_connect_pcm, snd_pcm_open, No such file or directory
[apulse] [error] do_connect_pcm, snd_pcm_open, No such file or directory


At which point skype will hang until I kill it. My current audio setup is alsa with jack, prior I was running alsa, jack, and pulse. Pulse, however, was soley for skype. If I could get apulse running in place of pulse that'd be swell.

Here is a my .asoundrc:
Code:

pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave { pcm "jack" }
}

ctl.mixer0 {
    type hw
    card 2
}

pcm.jack {
    type jack
    playback_ports {
        0 system:playback_1
        1 system:playback_2
    }
    capture_ports {
        0 system:capture_1
        1 system:capture_2
    }
}



And here is output from aplay -l:
Code:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Headset [Logitech USB Headset], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC889 Analog [ALC889 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1

card 2: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: ID 40 Digital [ID 40 Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0



The logitech headset is the target device I am after, I've tried "apulse skype hw:0,0" "apulse skype plushw:0,0" and a few others all with the same error posted above. I'd really appreciate any help, running three audio systems is simply overkill and I find pulse worked the worst of the three. All other alsa apps work perfectly fine with this setup, so I am unsure what the issue could be.
