Fidonet Portal
From: Adrian <bulleid@ku.gro.lioff>
I can get Aplay to play a wav file, but only if I use :
sudo aplay <file>
without sudo, I get :
aplay: main:788: audio open error: Device or resource busy.
Any suggestions on how I get aplay to work without sudo (the wav file is
owned by the pi user).
I'm running Stretch on a Pi 3
Thanks
Adrian

Ah. I remember this one. If I remember its a permissions issue on the
audio device. I think you can solve it by making the user and the
devices groups overlap
here is my pi's /etc/group entry....
audio:x:29:me,www-data,pulse,root
I seemed to need all that to get audio to work OK for all the users
needing to invoke it

Thanks, but that doesn't seem to have solved the problem. My pi user
already had the audio group amongst many others.

Ok, I think you haven't got the DAC set up right.
you need thi sin /boot/config.txt
<snip loadsa stuff>
# Additional overlays and parameters are documented /boot/overlays/README
# Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)
#dtparam=audio=on
dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt
dtoverlay=hifiberry-dac
So you need to disable onboard and use hifiberry-dac for that card
But I suspect you have done this..or aplay -l wouldnt show the
device....Hmm...
Does the *file* you are trying to play have the right permissions?

This is almost certainly not the cause of your problem but I think you
should bite the bullet anyway and make a new sd card with the latest
RaspiOS Bullseye. Stretch is now 2 versions out of date and the Raspberry
Pi Foundation (or is it the Inc.?
only supports the latest release. So
that should cover you in case anything else pops up.

It looks like somehow the /dev/snd perms are wrong, but I am struggling
to see what difference your setup is from mine
I tested it and I can play with myself as the user.
$ ls -l /dev | grep snd
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 140 Dec 9 13:42 snd
$ ls -l /dev/snd
total 0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Dec 9 13:42 by-path
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 0 Dec 9 13:42 controlC0
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 16 Dec 9 13:42 pcmC0D0p
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 1 Dec 9 13:17 seq
crw-rw---- 1 root audio 116, 33 Dec 9 13:42 timer
$ grep audio /etc/group
audio:x:29:me,www-data,pulse,root
that's my setup that works.
I think I had to add myself to get it to work from my user command line,
and www-data to get it to work when invoked by the apache webserver,
which is how I control the sound system...or else write a setuid program...
See if yours differs at all.

but can't find out why.. oh it disables bluetooth and is recommended
somewhere for better wifi, which I had issues with.
My bad.
https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/software/configuring-linux-3-18-x/
is I think how I got mine working BUT I am fairly sure I wouldn't have
stuck myself and www-data into the audio group without good reasons. In
short I think I had this problem and that is how I fixed it.
Anyway if I can get Adrian to a working config by duping mine, it's a
result.

Times and dates aside, my /dev/snd appears to be the same as yours. Oh
hang on, there is a difference. The four entries with permissions
starting "c" all have permissions of crw-rw----+
The audio group is :
audio:x:29:pi
I only need it to work for the pi user, so that should be OK.

Curious. I got the hardware from PiHut, and that was the site that they
