'artsdsp -v -m play test.wav' tells me that /dev/dsp is busy, which is, of course, not too remarkable because artsd is running -- and it should redirect output through artsd... Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): arts-1.3.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start KDE sound server artsd in full-duplex mode and using ALSA. 2. artsplay works fine. 3. artsdsp -v -n skype (or play) fails Actual Results: Fails to redirect output through artsd. Expected Results: Should redirect output through artsd. Additional info:
As of skype version 1.0.0.1, "artsdsp -m skype" finally works.
