I have got the same error message on two machines at home, one using an on board sound card of a laptop, the other a fairly cheep sound card in a desktop. I can get audio working when using XMMS and other applications, it's just the Rythmbox that appears to be causing a problem. I have run rythmbox with the -d (debug) command and got the output below. I have posted to the rythmbox dev list, and got no reply after a week or so. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [0x8ac2c60] [rb_shell_player_playpause] rb-shell-player.c:1278 (23:01:21): no playing source, using selected source [0x8ac2c60] [rb_shell_player_set_playing_source_internal] rb-shell-player.c:1723 (23:01:21): setting playing source to 0x8c09fd0 [0x8ac2c60] [rb_shell_player_sync_with_source] rb-shell-player.c:1580 (23:01:21): playing source: 0x8c09fd0, active entry: (nil) [0x8ac2c60] [rb_shell_set_window_title] rb-shell.c:1878 (23:01:21): clearing title [0x8ac2c60] [rb_header_sync] rb-header.c:489 (23:01:21): syncing with node = (nil) [0x8ac2c60] [rb_header_sync] rb-header.c:580 (23:01:21): not playing [0x8ac2c60] [rb_shell_player_sync_buttons] rb-shell-player.c:1643 (23:01:21): syncing with source 0x8c09fd0 [0x8ac2c60] [rb_linear_play_order_get_next] rb-play-order-linear.c:95 (23:01:21): choosing next linked entry [0x8ac2c60] [rb_linear_play_order_get_next] rb-play-order-linear.c:100 (23:01:21): Player is stopped, picking first entry [0x8ac2c60] [rb_shell_player_set_play_button] rb-shell-player.c:1536 (23:01:21): setting play button [0x8ac2c60] [rb_linear_play_order_get_next] rb-play-order-linear.c:95 (23:01:21): choosing next linked entry [0x8ac2c60] [rb_linear_play_order_get_next] rb-play-order-linear.c:100 (23:01:21): Player is stopped, picking first entry [0x8ac2c60] [rb_shell_player_open_location] rb-shell-player.c:845 (23:01:21): Opening file:///media/Music/Various/The Magic of Bill Anderson/11-Somtimes.ogg...
