Comment 9 for bug 12939

Hello,

I have changed some options of the /etc/polypaudio/default.pa
All is set to OSS now. It is only a workaround, but for me sound is playing
again :-)

# Load audio drivers statically

#load-module module-alsa-sink sink
#load-module module-alsa-source device=plughw:1,0
load-module module-oss device="/dev/dsp" sink_name=output source_name=input
#load-module module-oss-mmap device="/dev/dsp" sink_name=output source_name=input
load-module module-null-sink
#load-module module-pipe-sink

# Load audio drivers automatically on access

# ALSA
#commented for testing
#add-autoload-sink output module-alsa-sink sink_name=output
#add-autoload-source input module-alsa-source source_name=input

# OSS
add-autoload-sink output module-oss device="/dev/dsp" sink_name=output
source_name=input
add-autoload-source input module-oss device="/dev/dsp" source_name=input
sink_name=output

#add-autoload-sink output module-oss-mmap device="/dev/dsp" sink_name=output
source_name=input
#add-autoload-source input module-oss-mmap device="/dev/dsp" sink_name=output
source_name=input

/etc/libao.conf is defaulted to oss too.

I know this is not the best solution, but for now it works. Are there ALSA
problems on ppc? I dont know. The OSS emulation works fine ... Hmmm. I am not a
programmer, but it could be. There are plenty more x86 boxes than ppc installed ...

The gstreamer-properties Output Sink is set to OSS too. Input is set to ALSA,
other combinations crash on my iBook.

Regards.
