I've tried 'PCM Capture Source' in each of the three settings ('Mic', 'Input 1' and 'Input 2'). I've enabled capture for PCM and PCM 1. I've tried every combination of CAPTUR settings and I've unmuted everything. If someone would be kind enough to post an 'asound.state' file that is known to enable LINE-IN input, I could at least rule out that as being the problem. thanks, steve -- Steve Jones Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend.

[Alsa-user] ice1712 / envy24 problems - please help!
I have an MAudio Deltio DiO 2496 sound card that I'm trying to use for simple playback and I can't seem to get to the end of my problems. OSS emulation playback has pops / clicks. And I'm unable to get native ALSA to work in some programs. Is there any way to turn debugging on in the drivers? Whenever the software tries to initialize the sound card w/ the snd_pcm_hw_params the error Invalid argument Is returnedI have to admit that's very difficult to troubleshoot. I'd like to be able to see which parameter is failing so that I can either make changes to the software or perhaps create some .asoundrc that will fix the problem.

[Alsa-user] ALSA Plugin for XMMS
I'm having trouble getting ALSA to work with XMMS and am hoping someone can shed some light on it for me. This is my .asoundrc file... pcm.48000Hz { type plug slave { pcm hw:0,0 rate 48000 } route_policy default } That's it. There's nothing else in there. When I run XMMS and try and play an mp3 I get the usual Please check that... because it doesn't think I have my sound card set up properly. I've tried configuring the plugin both by setting the audio device to USB Audio (I have an Audigy2 NX) and by setting user defined to 48000Hz but I'm still getting the same problem. It might be worth noting that if I play a file using aplay like aplay -D 48000Hz file.wav it works. Any ideas?

Should by off for normal use (spdif out will play sound from pcm or alsa OSS emulation) or on (spdif out will play sound from spdif device - AC3 stream - unaltered). Why optical ??? Maybe because Optical and coaxial spdif output is 1 physical output from DSP - they share this output. Hum. If its used for ac3 passthrough this makes sense. However I need to enable it to get plain old pcm out of the port, not just AC3. 3)IEC958 Coaxial - this is for optical and coaxial input.

So I compiled a new kernel and got the newest alsa-drivers and it works fine now. I do get a few errors when I start alsa: ALSA /usr/src/modules/alsa-driver/pci/atiixp.c:453: atiixp: codec read timeout Don't know what to do about that, but at least I got Alsa working.

Re: [Alsa-user] Help with SPDIF
Thank you Clemens!!! That worked. How can I configure it so that RealPlayer and all my applications play through that plug:spdif port?

[Alsa-user] Intel 8x0 and Midi
I posted earlier about problems with midi and the intel 8x0. I thought the midi device listed was a sequencer, but I guess thats not the case. Is the mpu uart device just for a hardware midi interface? In any case I tried using timidity, but its playback for midis is really strange. I wouldn't characterize the sound as slow or delayed, really, but it sounds like the timing of the notes is really off. I'm running on a 2.4 ghz processor with 768 mb ram so it shouldn't be a problem processing I wouldn't think, but I don't know. I'm also running kernel 2.6.4.

If I start TiMidity as a server with timidity -iA -B2,8-Os I get 4 midi ports, 128:0 - 128:3 and I am able to play .mid files with pmidi -p128:0 midifile.mid. Is it possible to get ALSA to use these ports instead of real midi devices? Yes. ALSA programs like pmidi already use these ports. I guess your games want an OSS-compatible port like /dev/midi. Such device files require a device driver, so load snd-virmidi in addition to your snd-intel8x0 driver, and connect it to a Timidity port (e.g. aconnect 72:0 128:0), then instruct your program to use /dev/midi01.
