Hello, I was playing audio with mplayer and when it finished, mplayer closed as usual, however when trying to play something else I now receive "device busy" messages about /dev/dsp. I do _NOT_ have esd or any other sound daemon running (checked ps ax), nor do I have any other app that plays audio running. In addition, grep'ing fstat for the inode of /dev/dsp gives no results. I get the error with any app, including just cat'ing files to /dev/dsp. I don't see how /dev/dsp could possibly be still in use. I have discovered I can play sounds using /dev/dsp0.1 .2 .3 for now (/dev/dsp0.0 still reports device busy until I reboot). I do NOT have KDE running or GDM or anything else that starts a soundserver.. uname output: FreeBSD whorism 4.6-STABLE FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE #0: Wed Jul 10 20:07:35 EDT 2002 I have pcm compiled into the kernel: pcm0: <Creative EMU10K1> port 0x14e0-0x14ff irq 10 at device 13.0 on pci0 And this is a fairly recent source tree - from just about a week ago I believe.
