[Bug 337] Re: Can't find sound devices

[Chris Wagner]

For anyone else getting this message, also make sure you do not have any
other sound applications open.  I was trying to launch Audacity after
killing esd, but it was still failing because Rhythmbox was open on
another workspace.

** Summary changed:

- Can't find sound devices
+ Error message when launching audacity and no sound devices listed under playback/recording preferences

** Description changed:

- No device show up
- 
- No device show up. pop-up at startup:
- 
+ Upon launching audacity, the following message appears in a dialog box:
  "There was an error initializing the audio i/o layer. You will not be able to play or record audio.
  Error: Host error"
  
- No device are showing in the Playback or Recording preferences.
+ No devices show up in the Playback or Recording preferences.
  
  All other sound applications work fine, but audacity.
  
  strace file available.
