... while the mixer-applet works! Please check wether /dev/sound/mixer is accessible in additon to /dev/mixer. /dev/sound/mixer is where the OSS mixer is located in a devfs-only system. Regards, Tobias

Not sure this works completely as intended, but it might be a start.
Tobias, I assume that this is still the case in HEAD? [Marking major/high since this can/does break functionality.]
This patch should fail on the next if when the file is opened. It will open the previous file. The patch needs to take this into account.

GStreamer already does this... So this has been fixed for ages.
