Description Alexander E. Patrakov 2004-03-22 15:33:49 UTC 
My version of alsa-lib is 1.0.3b, my soundcard is fm801-based. This 
command works as expected: 
 
gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location="file.mp3" ! ffdec_mp3 ! alsasink 
device="plughw:0" (hw:0 also works) 
 
This doesn't: 
 
gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location="file.mp3" ! ffdec_mp3 ! alsasink 
device="plug:dmix" 
 
RUNNING pipeline ... 
ERROR: pipeline doesn't want to play.

This is a problem with alsa advertising incorrect formats that I can't fix easily.

Same issue on the i8x0.

I didn't find any bug report about this in the alsa bugtracker. Did you file a
bug about it, Benjamin? 

Sorry for asking, but I'd really like to hear IM events while listening to music...

This sequence of commands no longer exists in current CVS. Could you please
retest if it works for you now and, if not, give me a new log indicating what
goes wrong now?
