• gstreamer can't find sound device.

Posted: **Sat Nov 09, 2013 10:07 pm**

I have an old Armada laptop, E500, with a maestro 2e sound device. I know this because I've set up sound on this laptop before by loading the snd_maestro kernel module. With this installation, GhostBSD 3.5 with XFCE desktop, however, I can't get sound to work, gstreamer can't find the sound device. When I run "dmesg | grep pgm" I get this output, seven times:

Code: Select all

pcm0: <ESS Technology Maestro-2E> port 0x3000-0x30ff irq 11 at device 8.8 on pci0
pcm0: cannot allocate status buffer
device_attach:pcm0 attach returned 12

Any idea what's wrong here? Thanks for your help!
