SDL: Audio timeout - buggy audio driver-error

[aRTee]

Recently I swapped my sblive5.1 for an audigy2, and other changes are that I am now running 9.2 with kde3.2.

 

Before, sure enough, I could play frozen-bubble, majesty etc with sound without any problem.

 

I swapped the sblive5.1 for an audigy2 and since then I have this problem:

SDL: Audio timeout - buggy audio driver? (disabled)

audio: Bad file descriptor

 

I get this error with games using sdl: majesty, frozen-bubble, pathological (seems nice, was just trying that one,.. but no sound!!).

 

I have searched the web, no clue where to look. Google soon shows only russian pages with that error.

Note that my audio does work, I can watch videos with xine and mplayer without any problem (4.0 surround), or play mp3's etcetc.

 

I have changed the driver with mcc ; hardware ; soundcard - configure

but to no avail...

BTW I'm using alsa.

 

My /etc/modules.conf:

probeall usb-interface usb-uhci ehci-hcd
probeall scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
alias sound-slot-0 snd-emu10k1
above snd-emu10k1 snd-pcm-oss
alias eth0 8139too

How do I fix this? :unsure:

 

BTW I already logged on with gnome, to rule out the kde change...
