List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi all. I had a wav file floating around which I figured I would play with aplay, or at least try to. I used the -t option to indicate wav. My syntax was: aplay -t test.wav. I also tried: aplay card0 -t wav test.wav, and still it gives me: alsalib pcm_hw.c: 598(sndrv_pcm_ioctl_pversion failed: inapropriate ioctl for device. Aplay: main: 445: audio open error: inapropriate ioctl for device. How can I get aplay to use the correct audio device? I run freeamp and it works fine with mp3s. Thanks in advance!
