Then the sound stops and pcm0 reports the error. In my case, after a second it stops and keeps holding on the second or third note, along with a low raspy note, until I kill the player app. I made a midi file containing only one very short note, and it sustained that note until killed, too. I was using timidity for days with great success, then this error started and I can't play any kind of sound file any more, with any app, not even cat a .au to /dev/audio. Just before it happened, I was using gtkmidi where I attempted to rewind a few times and changed the volume within gtkmidi and it stopped playing, froze, and I had to kill the app. Since then nothing can play sound files any more.
