Hi,
isn't ALSA supposed to mix sounds itself nowadays (specifically on 10.3)?
I've read some discussion that it is supposed to work but there is also at least one bugreport on my radar which suggests that it doesn't work properly on 10.3.
I'm using several sound-generating applications but I never heard the sounds mixed but only a "first sound stream wins" behaviour.
That is for example with Flash, Amarok, ogg123, Skype, ... All those are supposed to use ALSA directly but I never got sounds from there mixed on my system.
The following is my /etc/modprobe.d/sound: options snd-via82xx enable=1 index=0 # Ssy1.tRQcjYJAMiE:A8V Deluxe motherboard (Realtek ALC850 codec) alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
if that's important.
Any ideas?
You may want to make a bugreport against YaST if this is true. YaST should detect, if your hardware is able to do the mixing or otherwise to setup the software side mixing in the alsa stack. This just gets blocked if some app uses old OSS /dev/dsp interface. So check if that is the case before you make a bugreport. bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
