[alsa-devel] Can this be a driver problem? Sound works fine for ogg files but not for avi

Hello,

as I have already reported I'm having problems with my sound: http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?group=gmane.linux.alsa.devel&article...

Takashi Iwai suggested installing the latest version of the driver. But, before I do this I want to make sure that it is a driver problem and not some other problem.

The thing is, on my system(Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon) I get perfect sound playing the example ogg files that come with the system. The system sounds seem to work fine also. But I have problems when trying to listen to avi or mp3 files. Can this still be an Alsa problem or is this a problem of some incorrect configuration?

Thanks!
