Having Problem with Audio I/O when using Headless Firefox

Posted May 9, 2014 3.8k views
Hi I have installed ALSA and Xvfb. I can bring up a headless firefox. I have ALSA driver installed: root@ubuntu-test:~/alsa/alsa-driver-1.0.25# modprobe -l |grep sound kernel/sound/soundcore.ko kernel/sound/core/snd-hrtimer.ko kernel/sound/core/snd-rawmidi.ko kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-dummy.ko kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-virmidi.ko kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-midi.ko kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-midi-emul.ko kernel/sound/drivers/pcsp/snd-pcsp.ko kernel/sound/pci/snd-ens1370.ko What I need to do now is to make some test using a flash / HTML 5 page using Selenium. When I bring up the browser, it is displaying "We couldn't detect a proper audio setup. Please ensure your microphone is working and try again." How do I setup some virtual Audio for I/O so I can continue with the test?

ALSA provides a "dummy" driver:

http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-dummy

You should be able to enable it with: 


modprobe snd-dummy

Hi

I followed the website and got ALSA installed.

snd-dummy is not available, but snd-seq-dummy is there. Is it the same?

What should my next step be?

root@ubuntu-test:~# modprobe -l | grep dummy

kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-dummy.ko
root@ubuntu-test:~#

root@ubuntu-test:~# modprobe snd-dummy

I am getting
root@ubuntu-test:~# modprobe snd-seq-dummy
FATAL: Error inserting snd_seq_dummy (/lib/modules/3.5.0-48-generic/kernel/sound/core/seq/snd-seq-dummy.ko): Invalid argument
root@ubuntu-test:~#

How do I fix this?

What version of Ubuntu are you running? How did you install ALSA?

On Ubuntu 14.04, after installing the package "alsa-base" I have it available.
