CMUS Error: opening audio device: No such device

by

I can’t seem to play any audio with CMUS because it always gives the error:

CMUS Error: opening audio device: No such device

This is the output of lspci -v | grep -A7 -i "audio":

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family High
Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
        Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation Device c892
        Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 49
        Memory at dff00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
        Capabilities: <access denied>
        Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel

00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation NM10/ICH7 Family PCI Express
Port 1 (rev 02) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])

What could be the problem?

Answer

If you are using alsa as output, you need to set these:

set output_plugin=alsa
set dsp.alsa.device=default
set mixer.alsa.device=default
set mixer.alsa.channel=Master
