No clue.
But I would try a reboot then sudo su to become root.
Then run # sudo apt update && apt upgrade -y as root.
None of the sudo stuff.
But that’s just me.
The reboot may clear the dpkg frontend lock crap if some kind of automatic or “other update” was in process or stuck.

Also for the record and future reference:
Me calling anything “crap” means I do not fully understand how it works or that something has changed to where I now presently do not fully understand how something works.
I installed Allstar yesterday (2/12/25) directly from the Allstar website. Everything installed smoothly and the program appeared to be working correctly. However, it appears as if my node has the audio problem that is in the video under the description “Kernel Issues with USB audio”. I am running the later version of Debian on a pc and I checked the file: /etc/modprobe.d/asl3-snd-usb-audio.conf, and “options snd_usb_audio lowlatency=0” was already in there. Does anyone have any suggestions how I can remove the distorted audio from my Allstar node?
Thank you,

Change it to lowlatency=1, reboot, and report back if that fixes it.
Thanks N8LBV, that worked for me. Not sure why the sudo command without su got hung up but I’m good to go now. Appears everything with the upgrade is working well.
Thanks.
Hmmm…
After doing the kernel hold a couple of weeks ago, I did the fix today…
Raspberry Pi Systems
Perform a normal upgrade with:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
The system should receive the package asl3_3.7.0-10. After this package is installed, run the following commands:
sudo systemctl start asl3-boot-oneshot
sleep 10
sudo apt install --reinstall linux-image-rpi-v8 linux-image-rpi-2712
linux-headers-rpi-2712 linux-headers-rpi-v8
but…
/sbin/asterisk -V shows asl3-3.2.0-2.deb12 and not als3-3.7.0-10
I did this on two RPi4 systems with the same results.
What’s wrong?

P.S. uname -a shows:
Linux node62426 6.6.74+rpt-rpi-v8 #1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 1:6.6.74-1+rpt1 (2025-01-27) aarch64 GNU/Linux
ASL3 is a collection of many packages and each package (and the RPi image) have their own version numbers. For this reason it’s a bit hard to have one single version number to reference.
In this case, “asl3-3.7.0-10” is the version of the “asl3” package. The version string returned by asterisk -V (“20.11.0+asl3-3.2.0-2.deb12”) reflects that of the “asl3-asterisk” packages comprised of both Asterisk (20.11.0) and app_rpt (3.2.0).
You can use the asl-show-version command to see all of the ASL3 packages you have installed.
p.s. I just created ASL3-Manual #103 to add an explanation to the online ASL3 Manual.
