Re: [alsa-devel] snd-hdsp driver error?
AFAIK , alsa-lib use the driver name to find the name of corresponding conf file from /usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf In your case , H-DSP.conf does not exist and there is no aliases in /usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf
You have to ask Takashi or Jaroslav to fix this issue for your card
open("/usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3
access("/usr/share/alsa/cards/H-DSP.conf", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/dev/snd/controlC1", O_RDONLY) = 3 close(3) = 0
write(2, "ALSA lib confmisc.c:1286:(snd_fu"..., 42ALSA lib confmisc.c:1286:(snd_func_refer) ) = 42 write(2, "Unable to find definition 'cards"..., 58Unable to find definition 'cards.H-DSP.pcm.front.0:CARD=0') = 58 write(2, "\n", 1

It didn't work with pulseaudio in any previos version (of ubuntu or any other distro I've tried) either. And the standard answer from people "out there" is "forget about pulse it doesn't work with the HDSP" f.x. this guy http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7578331&postcount=10 And that's why I contacted pulseaudio developers first when I found out the it was because snd_hdsp didn't load with the preferred udev but only with module-detect (se my first post). They said that I should inform Alsa developers as there seems to be a problem with the alsa driver.
I've attached the strace output.

Hi Raymond.
I so sorry Raymond. But I'm not sure what to do with this info. Is
there
something more I have to tell you? Is there anything I can do to make pulseaudio able to detect via udev? Can I copy-paste that bit of code
you
sent me somewhere? Please tell me if there's more you need to know. Greetings. Lars.

Finally I can catch up pending posts...
For hdsp, there is no clear definition for "front" or any surround outputs due to the nature of the hardware. So, getting an error isn't a bug in this case.
PA should fall back into "hw" if all such pre-defined PCMs are not available. So, this is no critical situation for PA. The problem is somewhere else.

I so sorry Raymond. But I'm not sure what to do with this info. Is
there
something more I have to tell you? Is there anything I can do to make pulseaudio able to detect via udev? Can I copy-paste that bit of code
you
sent me somewhere? Please tell me if there's more you need to know. Greetings. Lars.

Thanks a lot Takashi and Raymond.
I guess that means the fix from tom-ipp, that Raymond referred to, won't work. So what can I do to help you fix this. Do you want me to try and run something? I would be pleased to help out. When you say "the problem is somewhere else". Do you have an idea about where that could be?
Greetings Lars.

You have to ask Takashi or Jaroslav to fix this issue for your card
open("/usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3
access("/usr/share/alsa/cards/H-DSP.conf", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/dev/snd/controlC1", O_RDONLY) = 3 close(3) = 0

Finally I can catch up pending posts...
For hdsp, there is no clear definition for "front" or any surround outputs due to the nature of the hardware. So, getting an error isn't a bug in this case.
PA should fall back into "hw" if all such pre-defined PCMs are not available. So, this is no critical situation for PA. The problem is somewhere else.

It is a clean install. lars@lars-desktop:~$ lsb_release -a && uname -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 9.10 Release: 9.10 Codename: karmic Linux lars-desktop 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01

It didn't work with pulseaudio in any previos version (of ubuntu or any other distro I've tried) either. And the standard answer from people "out there" is "forget about pulse
it
doesn't work with the HDSP" f.x. this guy http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7578331&postcount=10 And that's why I contacted pulseaudio developers first when I found out
the
it was because snd_hdsp didn't load with the preferred udev but only
with
module-detect (se my first post). They said that I should inform Alsa developers as there seems to be a problem with the alsa driver.
I've attached the strace output.
Thanks. Lars.

Thanks a lot Takashi and Raymond.
I guess that means the fix from tom-ipp, that Raymond referred to, won't work. So what can I do to help you fix this. Do you want me to try and run something? I would be pleased to help out. When you say "the problem is somewhere else". Do you have an idea about where that could be?
Greetings Lars.

namehint seem use the conf file to find out the front and surround devices
do "aplay -L" or "arecord -L" still work if the sound card does not has conf file ?
PA already fallback to use "hw" and "plughw" when "front" is not available
Since PA only can handle SND_PCM_ACCESS_MMAP_ INTERLEAVED or SND_PCM_ACCESS_RW_INTERLEAVED and the card only support SNDRV_PCM_INFO_NONINTERLEAVED ,
it fall back to use traditional mode (not timer schedule) and relies on "plug" to perform "interleave" to "noninterleaved" and channels conversion

Most likely will need to "define RULES_DEBUG 1 " in /core/pcm_native.c to find out why snd_pcm_hw_params failed after "D: alsa-util.c: Set neither period nor buffer size" ?
In theory , the following should work for all cards unless the sound card has already opened by other application
aplay -v -Dplughw:0 any.wav
aplay -v -M -Dplughw:0 any.wav
BTW , can the application rewind the application pointer to the hardware pointer if the sound card only support SNDRV_PCM_INFO_NONINTERLEAVED and SNDRV_PCM_INFO_DOUBLE ?

AFAIK , alsa-lib use the driver name to find the name of corresponding conf file from /usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf In your case , H-DSP.conf does not exist and there is no aliases in /usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf
You have to ask Takashi or Jaroslav to fix this issue for your card
open("/usr/share/alsa/cards/aliases.conf", O_RDONLY) = 3
access("/usr/share/alsa/cards/H-DSP.conf", R_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/dev/snd/controlC1", O_RDONLY) = 3 close(3) = 0
write(2, "ALSA lib confmisc.c:1286:(snd_fu"..., 42ALSA lib confmisc.c:1286:(snd_func_refer) ) = 42 write(2, "Unable to find definition 'cards"..., 58Unable to find definition 'cards.H-DSP.pcm.front.0:CARD=0') = 58 write(2, "\n", 1
Finally I can catch up pending posts...
For hdsp, there is no clear definition for "front" or any surround outputs due to the nature of the hardware. So, getting an error isn't a bug in this case.
PA should fall back into "hw" if all such pre-defined PCMs are not available. So, this is no critical situation for PA. The problem is somewhere else.
