[mythtv-users] Can MythMusic use aRts or OSS?

[Tako Schotanus]

It does? That's strange, because every time that I start it MythMusic
hangs and a raatling noise comes from the speakers (which I've not been
able to turn off without rebooting). If I look in the process list there
is en "esd" daemon running which wasn't there before. Looking through
the docs I figured that MythMusic was using MAD to play music. If I use
madplay to play the same files I don't get any sound, but the effect is
the same: a esd daemon starts running and I can't do any audio until I
kill it. MPlayer works without a hitch either using OSS or aRts to play.

ANy suggestions how ESD might get involved and how I could get rid if it
? :-)

Thanks,
-Tako
