[Bug]: cmus error opening audio device

terminatorbs commented 4 months ago

Problem description

trying to start playback in cmus gives an error:

error: opening audio device: internal error

and no audio starts playing.

What steps will reproduce the bug?

i havent changed anything in my termux and it used to work (has been broken for over a week at least though) so i assume the issue will occur when simply installing cmus nornally. if not, please help me troubleshoot, i'm stuck.

What is the expected behavior?

no error and music starts playing

@pgaskin can this issue be closed now?

Possibly.

If @terminatorbs's error was due to pulseaudio failing to start, then yes, since we now have AAudio.

If pulseaudio started correctly, this is unusual, since pulseaudio always has at least a null sink even if there aren't any working real sinks.

testing today, cmus seems to work again for me, so yes i'll close this issue. i'll reopen or make a new one if any other issues appear.

interestingly enough, last time i tried it didn't work, but i assume that's just because i had to completely restart termux to load the new audio backend - my phone (fairphone 5) sadly does not "force close" apps anymore, they just stay open in the backgorund. i assume a recent full restart of the phone fixed it... who knows though.
