Fwd: [linux-audio-user] session exchange

[Noah Roberts]

I sent this to the author of the program but got nothing back.  Maybe
someone here has an idea of what to do to make this thing work.

I keep getting this:

I don't know what all this lack of fast mutexes is...I have amd64.  I
run lots of threaded programs.  Anyway, it won't work.  Any ideas?
