Hi all. Finnally got KDE up and running (yeah!), now I thought I'd
tackle configuring my soundcard. I've got the alsa drivers installed and
running fine. I've got a Soundblaster 5.1 with the shared analog/digital
output, and a set of cheap 5.1 speakers from creative (Inspire 5300).
The speakers have center/sub, left/right front and left/right rear
connections. To date I haven't been able to get sound from the center
channel (except by unplugging the center channel and letting the
speakers separate the signal, which is cheating). I did manage to get
sound from the rear speakers by toggling the Live Analog/Digital output
jack setting in alsamixer (also played around with gamixer in hopes that
things would make more sense there, they don't). In redhat using the oss
driver I have emu-tools and such to set up routing and what not. From
what I can gather, I should be able to set this up with alsa using only
a mixer. Can somebody point me in the right direction? The mixer
settings are nuts. I've got 31 "EMU10k1 PCM" mixer controls alone in
gamix (albeit only 2 seem to do anything). It's got me completely
baffled. Thanks again folks
Jeremy Gregorio
