[alsa-devel] 1.1.4 bug report: dmix fails when using both 32-bit and 64-bit clients

Hi all,

The following commit (released in v1.1.4) introduced an issue where a client compiled against a 32-bit (x86) compile of alsa-lib cannot use the same dmix as a client compiled against a 64-bit alsa-lib.

The error message is:

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1077:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to create IPC shm instance

The following forum post (not mine) describes the symptoms of the issue in more detail (although the git commit the poster specified is not correct):
