Hello Jerry, The use of Git "issues" is really not a place to get support. I recommend you join the direwolf@groups.io email list and re-post this last question there to help from lots of people including those who are using the digirig device. In that email post, please also include the output of "aplay -l" as well. It might also be worth trying to run direwolf as root just to see if the behavior changes as well.
Could not open audio device plughw:3,0 for output Device or resource busy
So, it looks like some other application is using the audio device. Apparently you are running this with systemd.
How about simplifying the situation and just running it from the command line? That might provide some clues.
And, yes, David is correct. This is a place for reporting software defects or requesting enhancements, no general troubleshooting. You might find the issue was already addressed in the forum. Or the solution you find will help others.
ok. I will go to the groups to do this. I suspect it has something to do with pulse audio getting in the way.
When the "Device or resource busy" message appears, this additional explanation is added:
This means that some other application is using that device. The solution is to identify that other application and stop it.

Not sure why I should get this error.
Any ideas on what to do?
