That is presumably limitted to my Muse5.1 card so may not be an issue to all of you here that seem to be using emu10k

After running the following..
| Code: | | revdep-rebuild --soname libasound.so.2 |
.. and recompiling each package listed, all issues seem to have disappeared. No audio applications have crashed (yet), and as a bonus, amaroK now appears to work with gstreamer, whereas it never did for me before. Bonus!
I recommend that revdev-rebuild command for anybody still having issues.

Well, the same happened to me with emu10k1 but removing /etc/asound.state did just the trick. I had to set the mixer again and unmute, but that's no pain. |

Thanks that did it . Simple.
Nice thing is it seems to have set most of the cards levels before failing , so when I ran alsamixer all was as I left it

OK this is getting messy.
Can someone pls confirm Im doing this right ?
I've emerged all the alsa-* 109(a) stuff.
I have disabled alsa and oss in kernel config but kept just CONFIG_SOUND (for sound card hardware support).
lsmod still shows my

ie all the alsa-oss modules that I deselected.
Maybe I'm mistaken but I thought lsmod showed loaded kernel modules . This kernel should not have these modules , should not know about them and should not load them.
Do I need to do a mr_proper to delete all the modules from the kernel lib directory?
In any case xine has started seg-faulting.

I think you might have answered your own question! It looks like all the modules are still there and are being loaded. Do the kernel module files still physically exist under /lib/modules?

Hum ..... everything was working fine when suddenly alsa started to change its settings ( alsamixer) each time a new music is played either on mpd or beep-media-player, its really weird .... the only thing i can imagine causing this is my kernel update i think !!!
But im not sure has anyone experienced this *bug ??
Yes i think i found some bug either on alsa or mpd or beep-media-player for example with another app like mplayer everything runs just fine !
any ideas ???
PS: I dont get any errors at all
using :
alsa-utils-1.0.9a
alsa-lib- 1.0.9
alsa-headers-1.0.9
got emu10k1 compiled on my kernel !!

ahhh , i was right indeed was kernel , ok for me | Code: | | emerge -C alsa-lib alsa-headers alsa-utils |
and removing everything concerning alsa and then emerging again fixed the problem .
If you have alsa built in your kernel try alsa-driver instead, i saw a message refering issues about alsa on new kernels, some bug, cant remember the numbar ( i think it was when emerging alsa-headers) try alsa-driver instead .

OK Mr.Proper is not that proper.
There are two different places where drivers are stored.
/lib/modules/[kernel-version]/kernel/sound (for the kernel modules )
/lib/modules/[kernel-version]/alsa-driver/pci (for the alsa-driver drivers.)
The drivers you get in the latter is determined by ALSA_CARDS=... in /etc/make.conf
Also worth noting that if you change that variable to add a new sound card and rebuild alsa-drivers you run the risk of leaving an old driver behind that was built with a different alsa-version.
That will give rise to errors like "unknown symbol... " etc on starting alsa.
If you are swapping around different alsa versions or especially swapping between kernel and packaged alsa drivers it is wise to clear all this out and rebuild the new drivers. There seems to be a possibility of previous kernel drivers getting loaded instead of the ones you want or vise versa.

Just had the same problem myself, fiddled with portage to keep everything at 0.9:
/etc/portage/package.keywords
| Code: | media-libs/alsa-lib ~amd64
media-libs/alsa-oss ~amd64
media-sound/alsa-driver ~amd64
media-sound/alsa-headers ~amd64
media-sound/alsa-utils ~amd64 |
/etc/portage.package.mask
| Code: | =media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.8
=media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.9b
=media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.8
=media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.8 |
rm -rf'd /lib/modules/<kernel version>/alsa-driver
| Code: | tybalt ~ # emerge -pv alsa-driver alsa-lib alsa-headers alsa-oss alsa-utils
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.9a -doc +oss 0 kB
[ebuild R ] media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.9 -doc -jack 0 kB
[ebuild R ] media-sound/alsa-headers-1.0.9 0 kB
[ebuild R ] media-libs/alsa-oss-1.0.9 0 kB
[ebuild R ] media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.9a +nls 0 kB
Total size of downloads: 0 kB |
...and now aplay actually works! Re-emerging Beep worked fine, just abotu to re-merge everything else ALSA-dependent. |

So what worked?
Are you saying that building xine using alsa was breaking the rest of alsa?

ALSA:
| Quote: |
Okay, I think the real solution to these kernel / ebuild alsa drivers is to simply take ALSA right out of the kernel and use only ebuilds for alsa.
There is simply too much risk for unsynchronized ALSA details when you have the official kernel and gentoo alsa ebuilds.
Solution: Take alsa out of the kernel and use ebuilds. You may be behind in versions, but that will save you a lot of trouble when things go wrong.

Instability:
| Quote: |
<strike>Unfortunately, I'm going on 36 hours recovering libs and drivers because of instability of sounds subsystems. This is nuts. It appears to be all because of compiling with a different version of gcc for certain libs than other libs.</strike>
Okay, the solution was to go to alisa-* 1.0.7 (especially alsa-libs) where possible and the others don't seem to matter.
This thread solved the problem:

Remember to /sbin/modules-update after editting that one.
That's all I have for now, I'll play around a bit more after this emerge world is done. |
