Post subject: | Can't set Alsa default permissions |
I have been using /dev/adsp and /dev/dsp for several releases, but ALSA:xxxx has never worked. Now I want to use ALSA:mixed_analog because I am getting a mix of formats from the DVB card. aplay -Dmixed_analog english.au works as root, but not as mythtv. I checked and mythtv is in the audio group. I did a search and found that this in /etc/modeprob.d/alsa-base is needed: options snd major=116 cards_limit=4 device_mode=0660 device_gid=29 device_uid=0 I tried that and the device_mode, device_gid and device_uid are not recognized. I did more searches and it appears these parameters have recently been dropped. http://dev.gentoo.org/~dsd/genpatches/issues-current.htm I cannot find the replacements. Anyone know how I can fix the permissions so mythtv can access the alsa devices? Thanks, Allen |

AAARRRG.... Here I was looking for a problem with device permissions. The permissions on my asound.conf were wrong. In the process, I learned enough about alsa to put in a significant update to the digital audio howto on wiki. Allen |
