Oh... I started pavucontrol and made some settings.... Now no more error when I tune or send a beacon
one step further - just in front of abiss 😉
Just my guess. You set the wine sound to alsa. ALSA does not let two separate apps access one sound card at a time. If one VARA modem accesses a sound device, another instance cannot do the same device. What happens if you run the main VARA only without a monitor?
Do you have RF /swr causing usb disconnects? Seems like a sound card I/o issue no?
maybe @kellykeeton can assist here. HE is our Linux-Vara Guru :)
Do you see any errors in the VARA modem log ? got to the VARA directory (usualy under c:\VARA in windows so donnot where in linux) and look for the Vara.log file. it should shed more light maybe.
