Same with JACK.
So, I thought, I'll just play them with
alsaplayer -o jack. I have
alsaplayer version 0.99.76. But when I do, alsaplayer loads the files
without complaint (well, mostly; there's some messages like "short_mask
= 0x6" on stdout...) ... the UI indicates that it's playing, and it says
"sndfile supported format" -- but the output is silent! Could it be a
problem with routing or mixer controls? Nope, I can hear any other file
I load, but not these mixes. Weird.
alsaplayer -o jack works reliably for me, I use it all the time.
I generally add the "-d transport/noconnect" option, then use qjackctl
(or the jamin Ports menu) to connect the output ports to jamin. That
way you can start and stop (but not reposition) alsaplayer using JACK
transport commands.
Is alsaplayer able to play your file without JACK? Can it play other files through JACK?
Yes, I said so.
This is clearly not a JACK problem. Alsaplayer appears to simply not
properly handle the float or 32-bit-integer wav files that I export from
ardour.
