Hello,
the update to LE 8.0.2 somehow has broken MPD playback via ALSA output on my RPI2.
I am using a hifiberry dac and a custom asound.conf file to enable volume control (by alsa softvol plugin) for my soundcard.
After system start/reboot MPD is starting without problems and is accessible via any mpd client. But immediately when I start any playback via ALSA output, MPD completely hangs and is not responding anymore. Unfortunately, the MPD log (even with verbose options) does not give any error message or hint to the problem.
This only happens, when ALSA is selected as output. If I select e.g. the the null output instead, MPD behaves completely normal (without sound output indeed).
The above problem only appears since LE 8.0.2. When I downgrade to LE 8.0.1 or any previous version, MPD and/or ALSA is working without problems in my configuration.
Has there been any change in the ALSA system and/or other parts related to audio between LE 8.0.1 and 8.0.2 causing this problem? What kind of additional information can I deliver in order to solve this problem?
Thanks, Lars
