Subject: libasound2: the rate option does not accept integers, even when given one

Package: libasound2
Version: 1.0.6-5
Severity: normal
I'm using this /etc/asound.conf file:
-- snip --
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm dmix
}
pcm.dmix {
type dmix
ipc_key 1024
ipc_key_add_uid true
slave {
pcm "hw:0"
rate 44100
}
}
-- snip --
When I try to use the alsa dmix plugin (using mplayer) with this asound.conf,
I get the following error:
ALSA lib conf.c:931:(parse_value) rate is not an integer
ALSA lib conf.c:1566:(snd_config_load1) _toplevel_:19:0:invalid argument
ALSA lib conf.c:2808:(snd_config_hook_load) /etc/asound.conf may be old
or corrupted: consider to remove or fix it
This is rather odd behaviour, as obviously rate IS an integer. The alsa docs
I could find define the slave section like this:
-- snip --
# Slave PCM definition
pcm_slave.NAME {
pcm STR # PCM name
# or
pcm { } # PCM definition
format STR # Format
channels INT # Channels
rate INT # Rate
period_time INT # Period time
buffer_time INT # Buffer time
}
-- snip --
With 'rate' being an INT. There's no workaround, apart from simply
removing the 'rate' parameter, and it will use some default rate I donot
know, except that it sounds considerably worse than output without the
plugin.
