Device is being used by another application.ĭebugging information: gstalsasink.c(689): gst_alsasink_open (): /GstAlsaSink:autoaudiosink-actual-sink-alsa: Playing.Įrror received from element autoaudiosink-actual-sink-alsa: Could not open audio device for playback. The other app gives me an error on the bus that gives me this information: Setting the pipeline to play. I have two apps that I'm working with that use GStreamer to decode and play media, and whenever I am listening to Pandora or have Youtube running, my apps won't work.įor the one app, whenever it starts, it tries to set the pipeline state to playing and it gets an error that it can't.
I am using Ubuntu 12.04, which of course uses ALSA for sound.
