I found this.

First i try:

sudo apt remove bluez-alsa

but no package found to remove.

Second i delete lines /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf according to this but i still have the errors:

How can i solve the problem?

Is there any module that i must install (with pip3)?

Thanks in advance,

Chris Pappas

Edit: Following this instructions i have decrease the errors.

Now the output is:

Edit: From https://people.csail.mit.edu/hubert/pyaudio/

These binaries include PortAudio v19 v190600_20161030, built with MinGW. They support only the Windows MME API and do not include support for DirectX, ASIO, etc. If you require support for APIs not included, you will need to compile PortAudio and PyAudio.

Is there something i must change in configuration file?

https://www.alsa-project.org/wiki/Asoundrc

I tried: jackd -R -d alsa -d hw:0,3 and I have only two warings!!!

ALSA lib pcm_dsnoop.c:641:(snd_pcm_dsnoop_open) unable to open slave
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1089:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave

Now, using: How to play an audiofile with pyaudio? no sound is hearing.

Note: After rebooting the pc, the error messages displayed again. I have to run jackd -R -d alsa i think to operate it again.

Commented again the three lines (see above) in the configuration file clear's the errors-warnings.

When i use first example from: https://people.csail.mit.edu/hubert/pyaudio/docs/ nothing is hearing.

I made but only one time. I copy one file (see here) After reboot no sound in output device.

Answer 1

Ok now i can listen sounds from the sound device.

Here i all i have done:

sudo apt-get purge bluez-alsa (not neccessery)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/alsa-daily

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

sudo apt-get install --reinstall dkms linux-image-generic linux-headers-generic linux-tools-generic linux-source alsa-firmware-loaders alsa-base alsa-utils alsa-source alsa-tools python-alsaaudio python-pyalsa

sudo apt-get install libasound-dev

Two last commands

root@chris-Inspiron-3847:/home/chris/Documents/Python# cat /etc/modprobe.d/default.conf
options snd_hda_intel index=1

jackd -d alsa -d hw:0,3 -r 44100

And then i restart the computer.

After that when i run the fist example from: https://people.csail.mit.edu/hubert/pyaudio/docs/ the output:

chris@chris-Inspiron-3847:~/Documents/Python$ python3.6 play_sound.py ALSA lib confmisc.c:1281:(snd_func_refer) Unable to find definition 'defaults.pcm.card' ALSA lib conf.c:4693:(_snd_config_evaluate) function snd_func_refer returned error: No such file or directory ...(other errors - warnings

but now i can hear sound!

Pff, i can hear sound from microphone (and also sound device).
