With the pulseaudio alsa plugin vdr-softdevice makes this error: Jun 15 01:10:40 fastforward vdr: [29273] [softdevice-audio] Access type not available NO AUDIO! This happens because it assumes that SND_PCM_ACCESS_MMAP_INTERLEAVED is available. That assumption is bogus, only normal PCI hw has mmap. So it makes troubles with software backends or with a little bit more exotic audio hardware. I've done a patch that fixes this. Reproducible: Always
