1 Hi folks...
2
3 just installed Gentoo on my new PC. I still have some problems with my custom
4 Kernel and 32bit java nsplugin doesn't work, but nothing as frustrating as a
5 non working sound.
6
7 I have a Gigabyte nforce 570 SLI board with
8 00:06.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP55 High Definition Audio (rev a2)
9 onboard that uses
10 snd_hda_intel 339492 0
11 snd_pcm 83848 2 snd_pcm_oss,snd_hda_intel
12 snd 65896 8
13 snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_seq_device,snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm,snd_timer
14 snd_page_alloc 15248 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm

16 I'm currently running a Genkernel with sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r5.
17 When I try to play a song with mpg123 I just get:
18 MPEG 1.0 layer III, 192 kbits/s, 44100 Hz stereo
19 initialize_device(): cannot set hw params
20 audio: Success
21
22 and speaker-test says:
23 Playback device is default
24 Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 1 channels
25 Using 16 octaves of pink noise
26 Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz)
27 Buffer size range from 2048 to 16384
28 Period size range from 1024 to 1024
29 Using max buffer size 16384
30 Periods = 4
31 was set period_size = 1024
32 was set buffer_size = 16384
33 Unable to set hw params for playback: Invalid argument
34 Setting of hwparams failed: Invalid argument
35 speaker-test: pcm_plug.c:67: snd_pcm_plug_close: Assertion `plug->gen.slave ==
36 plug->req_slave' failed.
37 Aborted

39 I configured my soundcard with alsaconf and it worked(!!!) until this morning.
40 I installed some more softwre today but really don't know what could be the
41 problem. (Didn't do anything ;)).
42
43 Any help is really appreciated.
