Hi list,
I currently run squeezesoft and squeezeslave (.9-133) on my mythbox to
play music (I prefer it to mythmusic). However, since upgrading to
.24, squeezeslave is preventing myth from being able to play audio.
When I have squeezeslave running on my mythbox and start up
mythfrontend, I get this error in the console:
2010-11-16 19:59:28.079 ALSA, Error:
snd_pcm_open("iec958:CARD=SB,DEV=0"): Device or resource busy
2010-11-16 19:59:28.080 Audio device ALSA:iec958:CARD=SB,DEV=0 isn't
usable Check audio configuration
When I try to play a recording, I get this error:
2010-11-16 20:00:11.414 ALSA, Error:
snd_pcm_open("iec958:CARD=SB,DEV=0"): Device or resource busy

2010-11-16 20:00:11.415 AudioPlayer: Disabling Audio, reason is:
Aborting reconfigure
As soon as kill squeezeslave, I can play audio and don't get these
errors, so I know it is a squeezeslave issue. I was able to let
squeezeplay run at all times on earlier versions (although, there
would obviously be issues when I was playing audio with both
squeezeplay and myth at the same time) and I would like to be able to
do this again. I could bind a key on my remote to start and stop
squeeze, but my preference is to just leave it running.
Any ideas?
