Summary0000079: AudioALSA::write_buffer err -32(Broken relay (pipe)) at sample 1
DescriptionWhen I open an old project I created this fall under Cinelerra-GG I now receive a window:

"Cinelerra: Be careful"
which contains the following message:

"Warning: XML of a version of cinelerra Unity
Session data may be incompatible."

As soon as I start playing the terminal tells me:
"AudioALSA::write_buffer err -32(Broken relay (pipe)) at sample 1"

The sources are composed of 13 files (HDV) mp2.m2t 1440x1080, 29.97 fps, 48000 KHz.

What should I do to resolve this situation?

The below message does not matter -- it resulted from changing the version number from 5.1 to Unity to Unify to Infinity
   "Warning: XML of a version of cinelerra Unity
   Session data may be incompatible."
The "AudioALSA::write_buffer err -32(Broken relay (pipe)) at sample 1" message is actually coming from the ALSA library and passed to cin. Check your Settings->Preferences, Playback A and the usual setting for Audio Out are:
   Audio Driver: ALSA Device: default Bits: 16 bit linear

Anything could be wrong or some "Jack" interference. You can run an independent test using the line:
    aplay -c 2 -r 48000 -f S16_LE /tmp/ring.raw
with the ring.raw file that is attached.

The only possibility that I can find for this message is something is wrong with the audio:
   AudioALSA::write_buffer err -32(Broken pipe) at sample 3361

So I am closing this issue until we can somehow get more details and even then with the varying sound cards / operating systems / setups, I think it will be impossible to find the cause from our location.

I do get similar errors in 4 cases:
 1) I stop playing in Cin-gg while the audio is in progress.
 2) Running on a computer where there is no sound card.
 3) Messing up the Settings->Preferences, Playback tab audio parameters.
 4) Maybe when playing "tunes" outside cinelerra, and then trying to play inside cinelerra simultaneously.
