I have a Dell Precision T7400 with an Audigy SE card that I have added. I can't get any sound out of it. This is what I have verified:
- I installed the same sound card in another dell (different model) and got sound. - I have tried RHEL 5.3 and Ubuntu 8.10. - I have enabled and disabled the built in sound card in bios. - I have an Audigy 2 ZS (emu10k1 driver) and that works So, the only difference I can tell between the two systems is the motherboard. (OS and Sound card is the same.) My ALSA information is located here: http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=eca8c5b6634fc79f4dc1778514c919ed6e3e46d2 More info that might helpful: aplay -D <device> /usr/share/sounds/email.wav With the built in (intel) sound chip the command runs and returns almost immediatly and I can hear sound. With the Audigy card, the command hangs. Verbose output (and strace output) from the command is listed below. Anybody have any thoughts on what to try? -- Joe aplay -vv -Ddefault:0 /usr/share/sounds/email.wav Playing WAVE '/usr/share/sounds/email.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Mono Plug PCM: Rate conversion PCM (48000, sformat=S16_LE) Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : RW_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 1 rate : 44100 exact rate : 44100 (44100/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 7526 period_size : 940 period_time : 21333 tstamp_mode : NONE period_step : 1 avail_min : 940 period_event : 0 start_threshold : 7526 stop_threshold : 7526 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 986447872 Slave: Route conversion PCM (sformat=S32_LE) Transformation table: 0 <- 0 1 <- 0 Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : MMAP_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 1 rate : 48000 exact rate : 48000 (48000/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 8192 period_size : 1024 period_time : 21333 tstamp_mode : NONE period_step : 1 avail_min : 1024 period_event : 0 start_threshold : 8192 stop_threshold : 8192 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 1073741824 Slave: Direct Stream Mixing PCM Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : MMAP_INTERLEAVED format : S32_LE subformat : STD channels : 2 rate : 48000 exact rate : 48000 (48000/1) msbits : 32 buffer_size : 8192 period_size : 1024 period_time : 21333 tstamp_mode : NONE period_step : 1 avail_min : 1024 period_event : 0 start_threshold : 8192 stop_threshold : 8192 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 1073741824 Hardware PCM card 0 'CA0106' device 0 subdevice 0 Its setup is: stream : PLAYBACK access : MMAP_INTERLEAVED format : S32_LE subformat : STD channels : 2 rate : 48000 exact rate : 48000 (48000/1) msbits : 32 buffer_size : 8192 period_size : 1024 period_time : 21333 tstamp_mode : ENABLE period_step : 1 avail_min : 1024 period_event : 0 start_threshold : 1 stop_threshold : 1073741824 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 1073741824 boundary : 1073741824 #########+ | 16% ---------------------- I ran an strace of the aplay command and it looks like it is hung in a poll() 8< --- cut beginning ----- >8 read(5, "\321\24H\23o\20\327\16'\r\202\v[\10\251\6\7\5h\3\\\0\346\376\212\375A\374\31\373\334\370"..., 1880) = 1880 gettimeofday({1238853473, 483834}, NULL) = 0 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0xbfc5b068) = 0 ioctl(3, 0x54a0, 0xbfc5b028) = 0 semop(688128, 0xbfc5b04a, 2) = 0 semop(688128, 0xbfc5b056, 1) = 0 gettimeofday({1238853473, 484478}, NULL) = 0 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0xbfc5afd8) = 0 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0) = 0 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLERR|POLLNVAL}], 1, 1000) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0xbfc5b018) = 0 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0xbfc5afd8) = 0 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0xbfc5afd8) = 0 read(3, "\6\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 64) = 16 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLERR|POLLNVAL}], 1, 1000) = 0 (Timeout) time(NULL) = 1238853474 #########+ | 16%) = 57 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0x8023f4) = 0 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0x40) = 0 ioctl(4, 0x4122, 0) = 0 poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLERR|POLLNVAL}], 1, -1
