Hi
when I started up XMMS with the alsa output plugin. I get:
** WARNING **: alsa_setup_mixer(): Failed to find mixer element: /dev/PCM
How do I (re)create /dev/pcm?
thanks

You mean you start xmms in default mode?
** WARNING **: alsa_setup_mixer(): Failed to find mixer element: /dev/PCM
Huh - /dev/snd/pcm* should be correct for ALSA.
How do I (re)create /dev/pcm?
Please show 'lsmod | grep _pcm'. Which xmms-version? Did you install any additional plugins? Did you configure any special stuff in xmms? Sound works outside xmms?

thanks for the point. problem solved.
I haven't touch my xmms configuration for years since it was configured.
Revisited just now and changed the mixer from /dev/PCM to "master" solved the problem.
THANKS
