sound not working in ayttm, but rest of the system seems okay
Okay, this is a bit weird for me so am reporting it here. For quite a
while I was running 2.4.26 and couldn't get ALSA run on that (guess I
probably needed to compile some modules myself). Just recently, I
intalled 2.6.8 and also all the related ALSA packages. Since then,
aslaplayer works, alsamixer works, CDs play, xine works okay, but ayttm
sounds are not playing.
I checked the sound files in ayttm and played them with 'play' on a
command prompt and they do play okay. But ayttm itself is silent. Advice
on how I go about solving this one?
Thanks,
->HS
