Hi,
I recently switched my desktop workstation to a raspberry pi 4B with 8 GB RAM.
Since the sound there doesn't work yet, I got a USB sound card, the make of
the sound card is best read from usbdevs -v:
addr 08: 0ccd:00b1 TerraTec Electronic GmbH, Aureon 7.1 USB
full speed, power 500 mA, config 1, rev 0.10
driver: uaudio0
driver: ugen0
Like the other AUREON card in the usb drivers I put this in usb quirks to not
attach as a uhiddev (not sure if that was the right thing to do?).
Now to my real question: mplayer sounds horrible, but iridium sound from
youtube sounds OK. There is a lot of static interference when I play with
mplayer. So what is it doing different than iridium? I tried messing with
audioctl buffer sizes and nblocks but I don't really know what I'm doing here,
so I'm writing to the list. The sound did not improve when I messed with the
buffers.
Here is the output of mplayer when I play a song:
Playing [censored]

Immediately I heard static, at the time this was my audioctl output:

and here is the mixerctl output (I had tuned the outputs.output down to 127,127
I think:
root@neptune# mixerctl -a

inputs.dig-in_mute=off
inputs.record_line-in=151,151

Thanks for any help!
