From: Oscar Corte on 1 Apr 2010 13:10 Hi all: When trying to play a CD with Sound Juicer, I'm getting error Could not open audio device for playback Reason: Internal GStreamer error: state change failed. Please file a bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GStreamer. Totem movie player plays video without any sound at all. However, I can use cdcd play to CD's with no problem at all from the command prompt. Debian reference suggests to use speaker-test which givesthe next result: speaker-test 1.0.16 Playback device is default Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 1 channels Using 16 octaves of pink noise ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:996:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave Playback open error: -2,No such file or directory What should I do next in order to fix sound?

Well, for starters, how about telling us the following: (1) Make and model of your computer (2) Make and model of your sound card, including sound chipset, if known (3) What release of Debian are you running (Lenny, Squeeze, etc.) (4) What packages are installed that start with "alsa" (5) What kernel modules are loaded that begin with "snd" (6) What columns labels are shown by alsamixer? (scroll left and right with arrow keys, exit with Esc) I have an idea what this might be, but I don't want to make a wild guess. Let's start with the basics. -- .''`.

Well, for starters, please don't top post. We use the usenet style of quoting here. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_posting for more details. I spent more time reformatting your message than I will in answering your post. Please don't do that to us. It is annoying. Second, what kind of Fourier transform did you do on your data? Reconstructing the output of lsmod in a recognizable format consumed a fair amount of time too. OK, enough about logistical issues and on to the problem. First of all: >> (3) What release of Debian are you running (Lenny, Squeeze, etc.) > Lenny 4.1.2-25 up to date through Synaptics That doesn't sound right. Are you perhaps running Ubuntu, or some other Debian-based distribution, and not Debian itself? >> (6) What columns labels are shown by alsamixer? (scroll left and right .... > Auto Hain Control [Off], Mic[dBgain=9.00] Are you saying that this one column is the only column? There's no column marked PCM? > As far as I remember sound used to work. When did it work? When you used to run Windows? When you were running an earlier release of Linux? Be more specific. -- .''`.

I suppose that snd-usb-audio is placed as the first sound device. So try as follows: Create as root /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf with the following content: ######## alias snd-card-0 snd-ens1371 options snd-ens1371 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio options snd-usb-audio index=1 ####### Run as root: # alsa force-reload or # reboot and test again -- "Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself." -Friedrich Nietzsche -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
