[alsa-devel] What does start_threshold mean, and what value should it contain?
by j t 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

Hi. I'm trying to debug a problem with xruns which happen when playing a wav file with vlc, but I can't reproduce the problems when using "aplay -M" to play the same wav file. (logged as https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3031). I've checked the contents of /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/ in both cases - they appear to be very similar except for the contents of sw_params: when I use vlc, start_threshold says 1, but when I use "aplay -M", start_threshold says 16384. So, what does start_threshold mean, is there a particular value that start_threshold "should" contain, and could this difference be the cause of the xruns? (The aplay man page doesn't seem to have any flags for controlling the value of this parameter, so it doesn't appear to be "user-configurable"). (Apologies if this is the wrong mailing list - I though that -devel would be better than -user, but I could be wrong). Thanks, Jaime

As I requested, get /proc/asound/card0/codec#* files for both working and non-working states. Then we can compare what is not set up properly. probe_mask is a bit hard to fix right now.

Hello, please could you point me at a functioning description of latest complete hg tree compilation? The guides e.g. http://www.suseforums.net/index.php?showtopic=30156&pid=170707&st=0&#entry1… end up with /home/pavel/tmp/alsa-hg/alsa/alsa-driver/soc/codecs/../../alsa-kernel/soc/codecs/wm8753.c:1707: error: ‘I2C_DRIVERID_WM8753’ undeclared here (not in a function) Thanks a lot.

Both MCKO1 and MCKO2 of ak4114 are fed to FPGA, which outputs master clock to SPMCLKIN of ice1724. Unfortunately my oscilloscope has just died, so experimentally I found out that only a combination of OCKS0=1, OCKS1 = 1 (128fs, 64fs output) and ice1724- VT1724_MT_I2S_MCLK_128X=0 (256fs input) yields correct sampling rate.

I think it should not be set for ice1724 slave mode at all, here is the patch which fixes the sampling rate. Looks fine, too.

[alsa-devel] Buffer Overrun Messages
by John Dey 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

Hi, I have been driving fluidsynth with with aplaymidi and get the following: fluidsynth: ALSAsequencer buffer overrun, lost event. I have played around with buffer size and buffer number and also run with and without jackd. The sound out doesn't seem to be affect. Can anyone give me some guidance on how to eliminate the error. Could the error be caused by fluidsynth? I have also run the program on PS2/Yellowdog linux and CCRMA fc5 (x86) both with similar results. Thanks. John

Re: [alsa-devel] Fwd: No sound with ATI SB450
by Ben DiDonc 23 Apr '07

Tobin, Unfortunately, ACPI was on at all times. My laptop hardly ever boots without ACPI (randomly, the SATA driver fails before it can even mount the root partition). I ran some more tests today: I loaded Ubuntu Edgy from the live CD where the sound chip used to work (kernel 2.6.17, alsa driver 1.0.12rc1). Obviously the sound works straight away. From there , I ran the same series of test: download and build (--with-debug=detect) the next version of alsa-driver, run a capture from mic and try playing it back, check syslog and run alsa-info.sh. I did this for successive versions of alsa-driver (starting with 1.0.12) until it fails. Here are the results: Alsa driver 1.0.12rc1(shipped with edgy): capture: working, playback working, alsa-info.sh at http://pastebin.ca/453947 Alsa driver 1.0.12: (alsa-info.sh at http://pastebin.ca/453971 ) syslog lines after modprobe: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:14.2[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 233 ALSA alsa-driver-1.0.12/pci/hda/../../alsa-kernel/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:663: codec_mask = 0x9 hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC861, trying auto-probe from BIOS...

Unknown device [1043:1447] Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 21 Memory at febfc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: <access denied> The audio seems to work properly on the right channel, but not on the left. All I get on the left channel is a loud screeching noise followed by a pop when the audio turns off. The microphon jack don't work also.

[alsa-devel] Strange code in
by Pete Zaitcev 23 Apr '07

Dear Takashi: Hans de Goede (on cc:) hits a problem when snd-usb-audio breaks with: "USB device is in the shutdown state, cannot create a card instance". This is how the place looks: chip = NULL; for (i = 0; i < SNDRV_CARDS; i++) { if (usb_chip[i] && usb_chip[i]->dev == dev) { if (usb_chip[i]->shutdown) { snd_printk(KERN_ERR "USB device is in the shutdown state, cannot create a card instance\n"); goto __error; } chip = usb_chip[i]; break; } } The code looks broken to me, because dev at this time is a new device structure, freshly allocated. You cannot compare it with an old instance, and I don't know why you would want to. Unfortunately (for fortunately), I have zero clue about the way ALSA works, specifically rules for snd_device_ops.dev_free, so I am asking you to look at this problem. Yours, -- Pete
