#648: Only 2 channels detected on echo3g devices -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- Reporter: unimatrix | Owner: lennart Type: defect | Status: new Milestone: | Component: daemon Keywords: | -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- Using '''module-udev-detect''', my 6-channel sound card (Echo Audio Gina 3G) is detected only as a stereo device, even though the daemon.conf setting ''default-sample-channels'' is set to 6.
The horrible workaround to resolve the issue is manually adding the alsa sink as follows: {{{ load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0 tsched=0 load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,1 tsched=0 }}} Of course that defeats the purpose for even having PulseAudio, because now I have to make sure the sound card always gets the same index (which is still problematic even in most recent distributions) and I cannot use the udev-detect module, because it doesn't understand that I've already defined this sink manually and duplicates it (as stereo). Here is my aplay -l output: {{{ **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Gina3G [Gina3G], device 0: Analog PCM [Gina3G] Subdevices: 5/6 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 Subdevice #2: subdevice #2 Subdevice #3: subdevice #3 Subdevice #4: subdevice #4 Subdevice #5: subdevice #5 card 0: Gina3G [Gina3G], device 1: Digital PCM [Gina3G] Subdevices: 8/8 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 Subdevice #2: subdevice #2 Subdevice #3: subdevice #3 Subdevice #4: subdevice #4 Subdevice #5: subdevice #5 Subdevice #6: subdevice #6 Subdevice #7: subdevice #7 }}} The driver I am using is ''snd_echo3g''.
