Hi guys

I have a odd problem concerning XBMCbuntu 11.0:

Sometimes when I start a movie XBMC starts the movie in the background so I hear only the sound but the screen stays on the Listview of my Movies. And then it's freezed and doesn't react on any of my remote commands.

According to my xbmc.log it is a problem related to pulseaudio:

My sound works so far with the following settings:


aplay -l
Code:
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC889 Analog [ALC889 Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 1: ALC889 Digital [ALC889 Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1

  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 2: DG [Xonar DG], device 1: Digital [Digital]
  Subdevices: 0/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

/etc/asound.conf:
Code:
pcm.!default {
   type plug
   slave {
       pcm "hw:2,1"
       rate 48000
   }
}

In xbmc settings I have both output and passthrough on custom, plughw:2,1

Can someone help me to solve this?

Regards,

I have exactly the same problem!
For the moment I think that I'll remove Eden for install the old version of XBMC...
Yeah I have the problem too. I use the internal optical SPDIF of a XBMC dedicated laptop and sometimes the video starts playing "behind" the UI and you can just hear the sound.
this is the thread you guys are searching for:
