Package: evince
Version: 2.22.2-2
Severity: important


I noticed my soundcard (snd-intel8x0) were not responding:
$ aplay /usr/share/sounds/startup3.wav ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:996: (snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
aplay: main:564: audio open error: Dispositivo o recurso ocupado

So when I look for the program using it and I found that it was evince!

$ sudo lsof /dev/snd/*
COMMAND   PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
evince  17403 luca   70r   CHR 116,33      3958 /dev/snd/timer
evince  17403 luca   71u   CHR 116,16      4414 /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p


I close evince and voila, my soundcard works again. =S
