Bug 360607

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 173793 ***

User created during installation does not have the priviliges to access the sound device. Jiri says this is not a yast2 matter, probably a bug in resmgr.

Sound works fine with user stefan in group audio

please remove yourself from that group in order to debug this problem.

please provide the output of /usr/sbin/hal-resmgr --list

- removed user from group audio

Does

lshal|grep pcmC0D0p

show anything?

no output

-> alsa problem

What is the sound card?  Show /proc/asound/cards.

cat /proc/asound/cards 
 0 [PS3            ]: PS3 - PS3
                      PS3 sound

OK, it got fixed on 2.6.25-rc1.
Try the patch below.

Created attachment 194648 [details]
Add missing sound device links

I've applied the patch but the result is the same
lshal|grep pcmC0D0p still doesn't show anything

Check whether /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0p/device exists and points a certain directory.

l /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0p/device
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 13. Feb 15:28 /sys/class/sound/pcmC0D0p/device -> ../../../../../../devices/ps3_system/ioc0_02/sound/card0/

Then it looks OK from the driver POV...  Danny, any clue?

1.) is this a playstation 3? --> there is currently no HAL support for these machines
2.) please attach output of lshal

I guess hal does not know about ps3_system_bus

That is what I already said. HAL don't support atm ps3 

submitted a new HAL version with a patch from the HAL ML to support ps3 bus.

@Tiwai/Stefan: there is a mbuild available g15-dkukawka-1, or via OSBS (as soon as it get build there): http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dkukawka:/hal-beta/openSUSE_Factory/

I reassign back, note me if it does not work.

lshal |grep pcm
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/ps3_system_bus_ioc0_02_sound_card_0_oss_pcm_0_0'
  info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/ps3_system_bus_ioc0_02_sound_card_0_oss_pcm_0_0'  (string)

  resmgr.device = '/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p'  (string)

together with the kernel patch from tiwai I managed to get sound output.

Thanks to all!
