Long story short:
Got a new cell phone
Tried to use audacity-freeworld to edit a .mp3 file down to a ringtone.
Discovered that I couldn't play the .mp3 file due to the following error:
Error while opening sound device. Please check the output device settings and the project sample rate.
The errors in the terminal session look like (lot's of them!):
Expression 'parameters->channelCount <= maxChans' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 915 Expression 'ValidateParameters( outputParameters, hostApi, StreamDirection_Out )' failed in 'src/hostapi/alsa/pa_linux_alsa.c', line: 1133
These seem similar to an F8 bug that was closed as NOTABUG: 449012
This is F11.x86_64
My audacity playback devices number 3:
ALSA: HDA Intel: Si3054 Modem (hw0,6) ALSA: modem ALSA: phoneline
I have 6 possible recording devices:
ALSA: HDA Intel: ALC883 Analog(hw0,0) ALSA: HDA Intel: ALC883 Analog(hw0,2) ALSA: HDA Intel: Si3054 Modem (hw0,6) ALSA: modem ALSA: phoneline OSS: /dev/dsp
I suspect that I need to somehow add my ALC883 (hw0,0) device to my audacity playback configuration. Can anyone tell me *how* to do that?
