I should note that one of the results I was investigating, http://askubuntu.com/questions/294807/ubuntu-12-04-alsamixer-not-found, referred to .asoundrc
in my home directory and /etc/asound.conf
. I understand the answer is for a slightly older version of Ubuntu, but neither of those files existed before or after reinstalling.
Currently we do not expose hardware to the Linux subsystem. I would suggest filing a request on our user voice page so we can prioritize this work.
Thanks for trying out WSL!
Marking with the Feature tag to show this as a feature request.
I was trying to output MIDI-sound over the network from Bash on Ubuntu on Windows to a Raspberry Pi, but it fails: pi@LENOVO5:~$ aseqnet -v aeblapi3.lan ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory snd_seq_open: No such file or directory [This still doesn't work in Build 14342 and Build 14352.]
If this worked then that would be a way to produce sounds for games. One could also have the sound server in Windows.
From one Pi with Lubuntu to another Pi with Raspbian Jessie this works: pi@aeblapi6:~$ aseqnet -v aeblapi3.lan & [1] 29002 sequencer opened: 130:0 ok.. connected
pi@aeblapi6:~$ aseqdump -l Port Client name Port name 0:0 System Timer 0:1 System Announce 14:0 Midi Through Midi Through Port-0 128:0 Net Client Network 129:0 Net Client Network 130:0 Net Client Network pi@aeblapi6:~$ aplaymidi -p130:0 Words_FR_David.mid
FYI
Also needed for MAME
MAME installs, sudo apt-get install mame
, but when starting it errors out with:
ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
@benhillis
This UserVoice instance is no longer available.
Please implement the /dev/snd/seq for WSL2 kernel, it also enables the use of RTP-Midi and related MIDI network protocols.
Please is there any plan for supporting this?
It would be great to have MIDI support.
I'm trying to run Alsamixer in Bash on Windows but it seems like I'm running into an interesting problem with it and soundcards that I can't find the answer to.
First, I installed Alsa Utils
apt-get install -y alsa-utils
gpasswd -a root audio
Then I try to open it root@localhost:/mnt/c/Users/guest1# alsamixer cannot open mixer: No such file or directory root@localhost:/mnt/c/Users/guest1# aplay -l aplay: device_list:268: no soundcards found...
I can't seem to query the soundcard on my laptop. Has anyone ever run into this problem and could offer some advice?
