Most can only support one stream at a time, so if you're using GNOME or KDE then esd or artsd will have stolen it by the time you run a user app. Try running this to see: 'fuser -v /dev/dsp' If ESD (which GNOME uses) has taken it, then you need to either tell xine to use an ESD-based audio output plugin, or use the 'esddsp' program to fake it. > > or hear any music in cdrom drive.

Playing audio CDs is kinda tangental to playing music using OSS, since most CD-ROM drives are directly hooked into the soundcard via a special cable, and will work even if the CPU has no power. Can cdparanoia access the drive? 'cdparanoia -Bzv' should start ripping whatever CD's in the drive... > However, I am a member of the cdrom and audio groups. I am kind of > clueless here.
