At the moment I am having issues with the system sounds in xbmc using the CHD Linux for the ATV.

I am using putty to ssh into the ATV

when I enter the following command:
echo 'atv' | sudo -s = /bin/bash: line 1:atv: command not found
atv@applettv-ubuntu:-$ /bin/bash: line 1: atv: command not found
-bash: /bin/bash:: No such file or directory

nano /root/.asoundrc=
Error Reading /home/atv/.nano_history: Permission Denied
Press Enter to continue starting nano

Enter is pressed and nano opens

File: /root/.asoundrc

Pasted in the following:

pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm "plughw:0,3"
}
}

pressed escape


File Name to Write: /root/.asoundrc

Enter Pressed
[ Error writing /root/.asoiundrc: Permission denied]

Ctrl-x to exit

Save modified buffer yes

Error writing again...

I have re installed twice still getting this behavior regarding permissions, enabling root via sudo works to a point. But still no system sounds. System sounds are not a deal breaker for me, guess its me just being anal and wanting to know why its not working and if it is due to an error on my part.

Disregard thread and post solved problem

For creating the .asoundrc file do the following:

Code:

sudo nano /root/.asoundrc

You're writing a file in /root's directory, so you need root level permissions to do it. Not sure why the reboot script is not working for you. Have you tried double quotes (") on either end of the atv instead of single quotes (')?

Also, the .asoundrc file works for me on my ATV for system sounds, but stops after awhile. Only a reboot brings them back, only to have them die again after a period of time. The system sounds are nice, but they are not crucial to me using XBMC. To be honest, I think I lose them occasionally on my full-blown HTPC as well. I haven't fired it up in a few months, but I'm fairly certain the behavior is similar there as well.
