Replying to [comment:3 lennart]: > Sorry, but Creative sund cards are unfortunately not well supported on Linux. Interesting. > Creative is very uncooperative and doesn't supply Free Software developers with documentation. I was not aware that Creative were amongst this crowd. Unfortunate. > The result of this is that only the most basic support for emu10k is available and a lot > of more advanced stuff that PA needs (like accurate timing) is broken/incomplete. I'm certainly not doubting you on this, but for the record of this ticket and anyone else who comes across it, why does it work so well with just plain ALSA driving it? > Please blame Creative for that and don't make the mistake to buy Creative again. Well, I definitely make a point of not buying from companies that engage in these tactics and sound cards are cheap and plentiful, so that probably won't be difficult. I guess in the meanwhile, I will swap my cards and relegate that EMU10k to being my (viop) headset soundcard driven by ALSA directly and use the: {{{ 00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2) }}} as my main audio sound card. Will I have better luck with that device and PA? -- Ticket URL: <http://www.pulseaudio.org/ticket/435#comment:4> PulseAudio <http://pulseaudio.org/> The PulseAudio Sound Server _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-tickets mailing list pulseaudio-tickets@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-tickets
