Bug#510459: vorbis-tools: ogg123 crashes or hangs when it cannot open the device

[Vincent Lefevre]

Package: vorbis-tools
Version: 1.2.0-5
Severity: minor

For instance:

[...]
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:996:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
ALSA snd_pcm_open error: Device or resource busy
Error: Cannot open device alsa.

zsh: segmentation fault  CHARSET=`locale charmap` \ogg123 --audio-buffer 128

It shouldn't crash, but return an error. Sometimes, instead of
crashing, it hangs. This is probably the same bug as 225393 (now
archived).

Note: I don't know why ogg123 cannot open the device, but this isn't
particular to ogg123. I'll reboot the machine.
