[linux-audio-user] Delta 1010/ALSA fluke

Hello. I wonder if anybody has any ideas on this one: I'm running a gentoo 2.4 kernel with a Delta 1010 sound card, wrote an asound.conf to route audio to various channels for multiple instances of mplayer - very cool - but this fluke happened this morning that it'd be awesome to understand... I got in and it had been looping three mplayer videos (mpgs) all night. They had gotten janky, ie: weren't really playing anymore, so I did a killall mplayer - nice. Then I tested some play back, one at a time, of the same movies. They routed fine, everything was great, except, on analog outputs 3, 5 and 7 (not 1), the audio was a little garbled. Like a digital garble type of thing almost sounding like a sample rate mismatch or something. I tested with an .mp3 and the same happened, and I tested an mp3 with alsaplayer and it happened, and then I did the tests again, and the second time, the .mp3 and the alsaplayer instance didn't do the weird thing, but the .mpgs still did it. So I rebooted it and it went away. *shrug* Anybody have any ideas on that? ----------------- Aaron Trumm www.nquit.com -----------------
