Re: [alsa-devel] alsa conformance test fails to run for playback (and works for capture)

Hi Hin-Tak,

How about using index instead? You should find the card index and device
index by running "aplay -l" command. The pcm format
is hw:{CARD_INDEX},{DEVICE_INDEX}.
See example part in
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform/audiotest/+/refs/heads/master/alsa_conformance_test.md
for
more information.

Best,
Yu-Hsuan
