Version: 1.0.3-1
Severity: normal
I just converted one of my machines to using the new udev facility, and
seem to have stumbled on a race condition when restoring mixer settings
at boot time. I think the problem is that there is a small delay after
the kernel modules are plugged in before the devices are created by
udev. Unfortunately, the alsactl restore seems to happen before the
devices are created, and it fails. Subsequent attempts to run it seem to
work fine.
It might be as simple as adding a delay in the script or looping for a bit
to make sure the devices are present before restoring mixer settings.
Please let me know if you need more info.
Thanks,
Jeff

Changes:
alsa-driver (1.0.4-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Steve Kowalik:
- Actually do some work on this package!
- Check for the presence of either devfs or udev before creating device
nodes in alsa-base's postinst. (Closes: #243876)
- Rewrite the init script to not load modules. Loading modules is now
the responsibility of the user, or hotplug.
(Closes: #195516, #203491, #210440, #232380, #237003, #237452, #240594)
(Closes: #244068, #245783)
- Stop alsa-base depending on lsof and procps.
- Change the description for alsa-base to no longer mention module
loading.
- Rewrite the debconf-age for alsa-base:
+ Stop asking which modules to load. (Closes: #199739, #218655)
+ Only ask one question about saving mixer settings, in the style of
setserial.
+ This means we can stop doing vile things to the debconf templates in
debian/rules.
+ This also means that alsa can restore on bootup, and not save on
shutdown. (Closes: #191501, #232854)
- Remove the files under /etc/alsa/modutils, and the symlinks
into /etc/modprobe.d and /etc/modutils.
- Provide an alsa-base file under /etc/modprobe.d and /etc/modutils
which will load the OSS compatibility modules.
(Closes: #229486, #240594)
- Blacklist (for hotplug) and skip (for discover) the OSS sound modules.
Note that we can include the blacklist automatically for hotplug, but
discover doesn't contain the infrastructure for that, so the file for
discover is in /usr/share/doc/alsa-base.
(Closes: #238278, #238694, #240125, #242720)
- Due to the fact that the init script no longer touches modules, this
script has been gutted to a shadow of its former self. (Closes: #238994)
- Stop using install -d so liberally in debian/rules.
- Rename debian/po/no.po to debian/po/nb.po.
- Correct typo in debian/po/fr.po. (Closes: #245031) (thanks,
Pierre Machard)
- Remove debian/alsa-path, I can't see anything at all that references it.
* Unreleased and untested.
