how to make realplayer use alsa
 

I've been using this setup for all my other sound and video programs, xmms and mplayer but in the preferences of realplayer I can't find a way to set it to this. Is it possible or do I have to run a sound server or get alsasharing to work?

It doesn't work with kde with the sound server either. :/

Hmm looks like I hit a bees nest there. I searched a bit and found out something more.

My onboard sound card + alsa is the problem. It's a VT82C686 which uses AC97. This has no mixer and I read here http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=8823 under part 4 that there's the "aoss trick". I didn't get much by googling around except that someone mentioned it related to using a wrapper.

I don't have time now to check it out and do that but has anybody got it to work this way?

bump anyone got an AC97 onboard sound and alsa and can listen to realplayer

artsdsp realplay doesn't work but arts complains that I have no dsp device anyway.
