this is clearly not a pidgin problem.. seems like something is wrong with you alsa installation.. or maybe you want to upgrade you alsa-libs
Fresh emerge --sync && emerge -uDNv world show I have nothing to upgrade.
Additionally, all other apps work fine with ALSA sound. I've successfully used sound-juicer, GNOME CD player, Wine (ALSA & OSS), mplayer, Flash Player plugin in Firefox. All tested and work fine. The only app that gives any kind of issue is pidgin. Which leads me to believe it's setting something up wrong or it's receiving a return value back from a function that it's not checking properly or checking at all and proceeding which results in the crash.
Comment #3 applies to Cardoe Machine #2. However, Cardoe Machine #3, nothing works. All crash like this. Using mplayer results in: [AO_ALSA] Unable to set hw-parameters: Invalid argument Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound. on both #2 and #3. Machine #1 refs 194448. Machine #2 & #3 use the same sound card driver. And Machine #1 uses a different one.
Let me clean up the bugs because I think I crossed over wayyy too much. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 194448 ***
cleaning up. ignore comments #1 through #5
The simple test case is the following: gst-launch-0.10 audiotestsrc ! alsasink device=plughw:0,0 with alsa-lib-1.0.14_rc3, it works. with alsa-lib-1.0.14a and higher, it segfaults. mplayer spits out [AO_ALSA] Unable to set hw-parameters: Invalid argument I didn't test the ebuilds in between those two versions since they're all masked in package.mask
additionally I switched to alsa-driver-1.0.14 to make this all work
OK. So, at least in one configuration, you've demonstrated an alsa-lib regression: alsa-lib-1.0.14_rc3 works, alsa-lib-1.0.14a fails. Apologies if you have done this already, but it's good to be clear: please now ensure that your make.conf doesn't do anything with ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS, reinstall alsa-lib-1.0.14a, confirm that the bug still exists (maybe even posting the segfault again if thats not too much to ask) and then post the contents of /var/db/pkg/media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.14a/USE to this bug Thanks!
alsa-driver 1.0.14 + alsa-lib-1.0.14a-r1 built with ALL the plugins = works alsa-driver 1.0.14 + alsa-lib-1.0.15_rc2 built with ALL the plugins = works in-kernel + alsa-lib-1.0.15_rc2 built with ALL the plugins = segfault alsa-driver 1.0.14 + alsa-lib-1.0.15_rc2 with only default plugins (ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="") = segfault
Please just clarify my understanding here: In comment #7, you started off with in-kernel drivers and alsa-lib-1.0.14a. You got the segfault. You then downgraded to alsa-lib-1.0.14_rc3 *AND* switched to alsa-driver drivers (rather than using the kernel ones), and then the segfault went away. Correct? The above is a little inconclusive as you changed 2 factors between the broken and working configurations. But your tests in comment #10 confirm that the one factor that matters is alsa-driver vs in-kernel, and the alsa-lib version doesn't really seem to matter. Is my understanding correct here as well?
in-kernel + alsa-lib-1.0.14_rc3 = works better? I just didn't add that note. That's all. So your conclusion in comment #11 is wrong.
ok. 2.6.22 alsa drivers are fine. If using 2.6.18, you need to use alsa-driver-1.0.14
amd64 + gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r8 + in-kernel + alsa-lib-1.0.15_rc2 (all pcm plugins) + snd_intel8x0 = works amd64 + gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r8 + in-kernel + alsa-lib-1.0.15_rc2 (phreak's default pcm plugins, ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="") + snd_intel8x0 = segfaults amd64 + gentoo-sources-2.6.22-r8 + in-kernel + alsa-lib-1.0.15_rc2 (override ebuild remove all pcm plugins) + snd_intel8x0 = graceful exit
Is this bug even remotely valid anymore... ?
