save the asound file, and try another approuch to this, (im sorry to say,
that pulseaudio is not my best friend)
put this in the asound file restart client and se if that works. (remeber
to save the old asound so you can put it back if this not work)
#/etc/asound.conf start:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmixer"
}
pcm.dsp0 {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmixer"
}
pcm.dmixer {
type dmix
ipc_key 1024
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"
period_time 0
period_size 1024
buffer_size 8192
rate 44100 #many new cards are 48000 only
}
bindings {
0 0
1 1
}
}
ctl.dmixer {
type hw
card 0
}
#end.
