Got a little prob... I can't use 2 sound devices at the same time! (or... sorta)
My card is working great and I CAN hear music from xmms AND play ANY game AT THE SAME TIME... to do that, I just get xmms to use OSS plugin with /dev/adsp (I'm using ALSA btw) and everything else just uses /dev/dsp. I was happy! I thought I had 2 functional sound devices to use anytime I wanted... I was wrong... Turns out I can't play and use Teamspeak at the same time (or any other prog that's NOT xmms), I tried making Teamspeak use /dev/adsp but then I can't hear or speak (when I check the TS log it says it cannot open the sound device), so I tried to get quake3 to use /dev/adsp but it just says that it cannot open the sound device... yet with xmms /dev/adsp works perfectly... WTF????? |

Use a software mixer like arts for your output. Or you could always get a soundcard that support hardware mixing.
I'm using the same sound device on one system with arts, everything works fine. |

Any tips? I have a Creative Ensonique audioPCI 1371. I am trying to get TeamSpeak and q3a to play nicely. I cannot get quake to start if TeamSpeak is running. I started with OSS, but went to alsa because thats what most documentaion I found was geared towards.
I tried many tweaks, and read and tried many suggestions, but no dice with Alsa. After reading this post, I went ahead and recompiled my kernel with OSS again and unmerged alsa to try again.
Still no dice. I have a /dev/dsp and a /dev/dsp1, but when I try to get TeamSpeak to use dsp1, I get no sound, and it says in the window:
| Code: |
Player Attributes:
Microphone muted
Speaker/Headphone muted
|
in my mixer program, all channels are unmuted. Am I missing something? |
