[OSS Proxy] OSS wrappers, version 097dc7b, not working under Arch Linux 4.2.3, PulseAudio 7.0

[Michael K. <kop...@ya...>]

Hi,

I'm running an up to date Arch Linux system (kernel 4.2.3) with
Alsa/PulseAudio 7.0 (which is working fine).  I want to use an old
(commercial) application, that still uses OSS, so I would like to use
the ossd-wrapper, version 097dc7b.  Unfortunately, they do not seem to
work.  A more precise description of the errors can be found here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=203964
As of writing, there were no replies to my initial question/problem.

I cloned the git repo and built them, running the tests gave me some
errors:
    % make test
    gcc -Wall   -o osstest osstest.c 
    test_open@122 test succeeded (mixerfd >= 0)
    test_open@131 test failed (ro_fd >= 0): Input/output error
    test_open@139 test failed (wo_fd >= 0): Input/output error
    test_open@147 test failed (rw_fd >= 0): Input/output error
    test_mixer@162 test succeeded (ret >= 0)
    Mixer id: OSS Proxy
    Name: Mixer
    Tests: 3 errors 2 success
    Makefile:65: recipe for target 'test' failed
    make: *** [test] Error 3

Does anyone have an idea what might be going wrong?  I would appreciate
any help.  I would also happily provide you with more information --
just ask...

Sincerely,
Michael
