Hello, Recently mpd has stopped working. It doesn't start up at boot and when i run "rc.d start mpd" I get this error /etc/rc.d/mpd: line 6: 24502 Aborted /usr/bin/mpd /etc/mpd.conf&>/dev/null. I am using gnome3(if thats somehow causing the problem.) I believe its due to some ALSA pulseaudio mixup but I am not sure. However if I run "sudo mpd" I get this output: [papul@papuldesktop ~]$ sudo mpd output: No "audio_output" defined in config file output: Attempt to detect audio output device output: Attempting to detect a alsa audio device output: Successfully detected a alsa audio device
and after that if I run "mpc play" I get this: [papul@papuldesktop ~]$ mpc play Metallica - The Unforgiven II [paused] #4/8 0:00/6:36 (0%) volume: n/a repeat: off random: off single: off consume: off ERROR: problems opening audio device
Please help coz I haven't been able to listen to music for quite sometime now. :(
Did you try to configure MPD to use PulseAudio then? (see [1])
how do I check if I am using pulseaudio or alsa or whatever else there is?
