Details

When KDE boots up and has amarok in autostart, amarok-engine-xine sends an error saying (translation from portuguese to english): "Couln't find any audio controlers", but it can play anyway and there is an ATI HDA audio installed and runnig.
If i close and re-run amarok, that message doesn't appear, this begin to happen after last kernel update and i realized that PCM bar at kmix doesn't appear anymore.
This task depends upon

EDIT: This happens every time you reboot and start amarok either on autorun or manualy ( using Alt+F2 )

does this happen also to xine itself?
Comment by João Rodrigues (gothicknight) - Sunday, 04 March 2007, 02:43 GMT
No, using xine i have no error message, but in mplayer i have some errors when changing volume, i think the problem is in the module driver for my ati hda ( wich uses snd-hda-intel model=ati fix_position=1 ) and give me a bunch of errors in the log

"hda_codec: invalid dep_range_val 0:7fff" (this fills totaly my dmesg)

As of 2.6.20 i stop having the PCM slide on kmix, but mplayer still has it on mixer selection and i think there's something wrong with ALSA itself.

It only shown him self in amarok and mplayer, the amarok bug was reported first because was the most easly reproduced. I can't confirm that it's a xine/alsa or a amarok/xine, but is indeed in Xine. I'll try a diferent engine around tomorow and post the results.

I've couldn't get any other amarok-engine, but if there is a problem it resides in alsa or the engine it self not amarok-base.

when we update xine-lib to 1.1.5 and then rebuild everything depending on xine-lib against it, maybe your problem will get solved

I think the bug was related to #6867 ( http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/6867 )

As some time from now, i've changed to mpd+gmpc so I can't reproduce the bug, but I'll gladly install all needed packages to test if needed ;)
Comment by Greg (dolby) - Saturday, 15 December 2007, 14:50 GMT
is this still an issue?
Comment by Damir Perisa (damir.perisa) - Saturday, 15 December 2007, 15:01 GMT
anyone with ATI HDA can report back? if not closing is an option
Comment by João Rodrigues (gothicknight) - Sunday, 16 December 2007, 12:51 GMT
The bug was in alsa driver module, model=ati had some issues but for now it's stable. Still, I can't test this in amarok :( but it should work without a problem now.

Back to KDE and got no problems with this anymore, you can close this :)
