Hi, I'm using Suse 10.1 with the alsa-packages:
alsa-1.0.11-32.x86_64.rpm alsa-firmware-1.0.10-13.x86_64.rpm alsa-plugins-1.0.11-3.x86_64.rpm alsa-tools-1.0.11-16.x86_64.rpm and the following asoundrc: pcm.dmix51 { type upmix slave.pcm { type dmix variable_buffer_size true ipc_key { @func refer name defaults.pcm.ipc_key } ipc_gid { @func refer name defaults.pcm.ipc_gid } slave { pcm "hw:0,0" period_size 512 periods 10 channels 6 } } } pcm.pdmix { type plug slave.pcm "dmix51" } pcm.!default "pdmix" And it's working fine, but I have 2 Problems: 1.) If there is an 'real 5.1-Stream', for example the sound of the center-box is in the left rear-box too. I've tested with speaker-test -c6: 0 - Front Left -> Center 4 - Center -> Rear Left 1 - Front Right -> LFE 3 - Rear Right -> Front Right 2 - Rear Left -> Front Left 5 - LFE -> Rear Right The connections of my Boxes are all right, because without the asoundrc and with windows the sound is right. 2.) Why the Master-Control of alsamixer controls only the front-boxes?? Is there any control which can control the whole sound, all 6 channels?? I'm using an onboard nforce4-soundchip and the analog connections... Can anybody help me??
