[SOLVED] mpd problems
I have installed mpd according to the wiki.
The installation seems fine, playlists are updated, etc. However, when I try to play an mp3, the time-progress display starts, but no sound. No error in the logs, either. The time, however, seems to skip ahead, like every couple of seconds it jumps forward so in maybe 20 seconds the progress advances one minute. Any ideas what could be wrong? This is for any mp3 I try to play. I am a little lost about what else I could do, I tried alsa, then pulse, but no luck.
Playing the mp3s in vlc for example, works fine, so I am strongly suspecting mpd config to be the problem...

Re: [SOLVED] mpd problems
Didn't work. I also tried enabling the output using ncmpc but no dice. It does seem to play, but there is just no sound, and the seconds go by way too fast...

Re: [SOLVED] mpd problems
Post the audio outputs that you have enabled in /etc/mpd.conf.

Re: [SOLVED] mpd problems
none. I am letting it "autodetect"...

Re: [SOLVED] mpd problems
There is no autodetect. Apparently there is an autodetect. However, you really should set this up yourself.

Re: [SOLVED] mpd problems
Stebalien is right, I've never even heard of autodetect with mpd. I second that you should set it up yourself. Feel free to post the audio outputs if you attempt it and problems persist.

Re: [SOLVED] mpd problems
well I ended up completely removing everything sound-related except alsa and reinstalled alsa and now it works (after a reboot). I will never know what happened or caused this.
