audio.device already in use?

[Acill]

Not sure how since I havent installed anything new I remember to cause this. When I launch a whdload game through igame I get a popup telling me audio.decice is already in use. I also get no video display when I select to ignore. This just randomly popped up. Still need to try other programs to test audio,  but I do hear poseidon make its sounds when a usb device is inserted.

Maybe AHI in exclusive mode?

Ill have to check on that. Is that setting in the AHI prefs app?

Ill fire up snoopdos and see what its doing. I had to leave and go back to work.  My Amiga gearbis at my other house and I wint get back this week.

This is still an issue. I cant seem to get any players to play any sound without getting that error still.

Where do I check this to see if its the play sound beep causing it? If its the sound pref in the prefs nothing is check in there.

I have AHI installed and working with my sound card for things that use it just fine as far as I can tell. If I remove a USB device or add one I also hear the poseidon sound it makes, so some sound must be working unless that plays through AHI.

I'd love to get this fixed!

Maybe it's Poseidon Popups allocating the audio device?  IIRC you can turn off the sound prompts in Poseidon, which may be what happening every boot if it is popping up with a detect on every boot.

Could be, how do I turn that off?

You have to shut down Poseidon before you run WHDLoad anyway, so Poseidon should not be the problem.

Actually WHDLOAD runs fine on my system if I leave it up, I only secure Roadshow.

I have also rebooted after the problem and it seems I can get audio back. It does seem to be poseidon causing the audio issue though. When I boot my A4000T I have my Mac running. I use a USB KVM to share a mouse and keyboard between them. When the A4000T is fully booted I switch and it causes the poseidon pop up. If I warb reboot the problem goes away. Its strange.

Try going into trident and under the popup config, clearing the connection sound and the disconnection sound and setting to only popup on error.

Did that, so far so good.
