Description Chetan Reddy 2004-06-01 05:50:34 UTC 
1.Compile alsa without oss support.
2.Compile totem-0.99.11 with gstreamer support. I have gstreamer-0.8.1 installed.
3.In gstreamer-properties change default output sink to ALSA. Start totem and
try to play any sound file( i tried mp3 and ogg files ) .
4.Totem crashes immediately. Rhythmbox (also uses gstreamer) plays successfully
so the problem seems to be with totem.
5.Totem plays well if the default output sink is set to ESD and the daemon is
started.
6.I do have gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.1 installed.

Here is a backtrace when it crashed

totem: pcm_plug.c:882: snd_pcm_plug_hw_params:

7.gstreamer-properties plays the test sound properly when using ALSA sink.
Comment 1 Teemu Valimaki 2004-06-09 17:55:36 UTC 
Happens here too. Versions are the same. Re-installing totem seems to help for a
while. After 1h it started to crash again. Both video and MP3 fail. Rhytmbox
works just fine. Xine-ui was able to play the sound but no video.
Comment 2 David Schleef 2004-07-02 23:15:08 UTC 
Could you reconfirm this with gst-plugins-0.8.2?
