Using plughw:0,0 and plughw:0,1 I in MPD's config I now have both analog and digital output. Without using .asoundrc - which, according to http://alsa.opensrc.org/.asoundrc , is a good thing: "If your system won't work without one, and you are running the most current version of ALSA, you probably should file a bug report."
Because of that statement I am a bit less worried about the fact that even the simplest .asoundrc does not work for me. This, for instance: pcm.ALIAS { type hw card 0 } gives only errors when I do: 'aplay -D ALIAS test.wav' So, no .asoundrc for me I'm afraid. Which is a problem because I would like to use (at least) the SPDIF IN to make recordings. I have no idea where to start. Any ideas are most welcome. -- Johan Spee Plain text email and 'jayes' in the subject line will get you round my spam filters. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
