[Asterisk-Users] Problems with soundcards

[Markus Hakansson]

Hello, I am having some problems using Asterisk together with ALSA and
OSS with two different motherboards with VIA686 soundcards and Linux
kernel 2.6.10.
The ALSA drivers work but have a latency of around 0.5seconds and the
OSS-driver only works sometimes on one of the computers but never on the
other.
The error I get is:
chan_oss.c:239 sound_thread: Read error on sound device: Resource
temporarily unavailable

I googled this error and found some references that Asterisk does not
support VIA686 because it is fixed at 48Khz, the information seemed to
be several years old, is this still true?

When the OSS-driver works (sometimes on one of the boards) it has very
low latency and good sound-quality.



	Sincerely,
