[arch-general] what's wrong with my alsa configuration?

[Jude DaShiell]

I'm using vlc to play a stream and got the same error when trying to play
an mp3 file earlier.  The stream and the file play eventually.  I searched
for this one using duckduckgo and got one result in german which I do not
speak and certainly do not do technical german which is why I'm asking
here.
