I'm using a Swissonic USB Studio. With an older CVS version (from around 29th June), playback and capture were pretty much OK, except for a ticking (the repetitive peaks issue?) and some noise. Using the latest CVS version:
aplay -D studio /mnt/spare/music/test.wav Playing WAVE '/mnt/spare/music/test.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo aplay: set_params:737: Broken configuration for this PCM: no configurations available ecasound and jackd die with less descriptive error messages. The error comes from a call err = snd_pcm_hw_params_any(handle, params); on line 735 of aplay.c The output from /proc/asound/card1/stream0 is Creative Technology Ltd Creative USB Speaker : USB Audio Playback: Status: Stop Altset 1 Format: U8 Channels: 1 Endpoint: 4 OUT (ADAPTIVE) Rates: 4990 - 55010 (continous) Altset 2 Format: U8 Channels: 2 Endpoint: 4 OUT (ADAPTIVE) Rates: 4990 - 55010 (continous) Altset 3 Format: S16_LE Channels: 1 Endpoint: 4 OUT (ADAPTIVE) Rates: 4990 - 55010 (continous) Altset 4 Format: S16_LE Channels: 2 Endpoint: 4 OUT (ADAPTIVE) Rates: 4990 - 55010 (continous) Altset 5 Format: STD Channels: 1 Endpoint: 4 OUT (ADAPTIVE) Rates: 4990 - 55010 (continous) Altset 6 Format: STD Channels: 2 Endpoint: 4 OUT (ADAPTIVE) Rates: 4990 - 55010 (continous) Capture: Status: Stop Altset 1 Format: U8 Channels: 1 Endpoint: 5 IN (ASYNC) Rates: 4000, 5512, 6000, 8000, 11025, 12000, 16000, 22050, 24000, 32000, 44100, 48000 Altset 2 Format: U8 Channels: 2 Endpoint: 5 IN (ASYNC) Rates: 4000, 5512, 6000, 8000, 11025, 12000, 16000, 22050, 24000, 32000, 44100, 48000 Altset 3 Format: S16_LE Channels: 1 Endpoint: 5 IN (ASYNC) Rates: 4000, 5512, 6000, 8000, 11025, 12000, 16000, 22050, 24000, 32000, 44100, 48000 Altset 4 Format: S16_LE Channels: 2 Endpoint: 5 IN (ASYNC) Rates: 4000, 5512, 6000, 8000, 11025, 12000, 16000, 22050, 24000, 32000, 44100, 48000 Altset 5 Format: STD Channels: 1 Endpoint: 5 IN (ASYNC) Rates: 4000, 5512, 6000, 8000, 11025, 12000, 16000, 22050, 24000, 32000, 44100, 48000 Altset 6 Format: STD Channels: 2 Endpoint: 5 IN (ASYNC) Rates: 4000, 5512, 6000, 8000, 11025, 12000, 16000, 22050, 24000, 32000, 44100, 48000 Any help much appreciated.
