If you have firefox running the flash plugin might have grabbed your
soundcard; try closing firefox. Other programs might have also
grabbed it like esd or arts as well, so you might want to try a
killall on them to see if that helps. You can also do a 'fuser
/dev/snd/*' to see what PID's are using the device at the time and
then kill them off.
Hope this helps.

hi
i am getting this error when running some of the examples on my thinkpad x24, with the built in sound card. I am using Debian unstable with fluxbox. I compiled ChucK from source couple of weeks ago.
[chuck]: (via rtaudio): no devices found for given stream parameters: ... RtApiAlsa: pcm device (hw:I82801CAICH3,0) won't open: Device or resource busy. ... RtApiAlsa: pcm device (hw:I82801CAICH3,1) won't open: No such file or directory.
[chuck]: cannot initialize audio device (try using --silent/-s)
any ideas? I am not running any other sound device as far as i can see but i dont know much on audio and linux.
thanks
