This is my second post regarding this, so I figured a
new thread was in order.
I have a Gigabyte GA-7DPX-DW+ mobo (dual Athlon MP) w/
onboard intel8x0 sound. It worked fine w/ ALSA 0.9.0
and kernel 2.4.20 (no ll or preempt patches).
I just added a M-Audio Delta Audiophile 2496 card, and
upgraded to kernel 2.4.21 w/ low-latency and preempt
patches.
Now, neither the snd-intel8x0 or snd-ice1712 modules
work.
If I load just the Intel module & snd-pcm-oss, I get
no errors until I try to play a sound. Sound through
OSS just doesn't occur, and 'aplay <some.wav>' gives
the error message "aplay: set_params:787: Broken
configuration for this PCM: no configurations
available."
If I load just the ice-1712 module and snd-pcm-oss,
starting up gnome causes an error message to pop up
which says "Mixer device /dev/mixer has neither volume
nor PCM channels."
At this point, I have not a clue whether:
a) 0.9.5 is a buggy release for these two drivers;
b) using two cards in the same box doesn't work unless
you use the "multi" style config (where the cards are
'bonded' into one);
c) I have a problem w/ my configuration, or;
d) the kernel + patches are the problem
My .asoundrc looks like:
pcm.intel {
type hw # Kernel PCM
card 0 # Card name or number
device 0 # Device number (default 0)
}
pcm.ice {
type hw # Kernel PCM
card 1 # Card name or number
device 1 # Device number (default 0)
}
ctl.intel {
type hw
card 0
}
ctl.ice {
type hw
card 1
}
And my modules.conf section for sound looks like this:
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
alias snd-card-1 snd-ice1712
options snd major=116 cards_limit=2
## OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
##
## OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
# OSS/Free portion - card #2
alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-1-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-1-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
Also, I noticed that despite aliasing snd-card-0 to a
specific module, which ever card gets loaded first is
listed as 0 in /proc/asound/cards. Don't know if that
makes any difference.
I built this machine in large part to build a digital
audio workstation. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
