Failed to initialize audio device
#1
Hello everyone,

today I tried to make my HTPC fit for autologin. But now XBMC won't recognize the audio device anymore and the message "Failed to initialze audio device" appears.
I realized it as follows:

Code:
sudo nano /etc/init/tty1.conf:
     # exec /sbin/getty 38400 tty1
    exec /sbin/rungetty --autologin tbr tty1

Code:
nano /home/tbr/.bash_profile
    #!/bin/bash
    irexec –d
    if [ $(tty) = "/dev/tty1" ]; then
        startx
    fi

Code:
nano /home/tbr/.xinitrc
    #!/bin/bash
    xbmc-standalone

Switching back to starting xbmc from commandline, everything works fine. Can anybody help me out of this dilema?

Thanks in advance and kind regards!

Tim
