Hold on everyone! I spoke too soon...<br><br>I still have a problem with audio from mythmusic...<br><br>I get no sound. In the log I see <br><br>2009-01-20 22:38:21.308 Opening audio device 'hw:0,3'. ch 2(2) sr 44100<br>
2009-01-20 22:38:21.308 Opening ALSA audio device 'hw:0,3'.<br>2009-01-20 22:38:21.309 AudioOutput Error: Rate doesn't match (requested 44100Hz, got 48000Hz)<br>2009-01-20 22:38:21.309 AudioOutput Error: Unable to set ALSA parameters<br>

Aplay/mplayer only plays 48000 Hz stereo files, saying "[AO_ALSA]
Unable to set hw-parameters: Invalid argument" and "aplay:
set_params:961: Unable to install hw params:" irrespectively. No mono
and no non-48kHz files work. <br><b>Cause:</b><br>
Alsa doesn't know how to resample, but doesn't mention that even when you specifically ask it to in .asoundrc.
<br><b>Solution:</b><br>
Rebuild alsa-libs to include all the pcm plugins. In Gentoo, this means
sticking ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="*" in make.conf and emerge alsa-lib.
<br><b>Reason:</b><br>
Alsa should now be able to resample audio and magically play all the other formats, even without ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf
