Re: [Alsa-user] ESI U46DJ
Thank you very much, I will order it. But I have found that Ego Systems Inc = ESI and Audiotrak. I have sold Audiotrak MAYA 44USB a week ago because ALSA was not able to detect its mixer properly. I worry if this soundcard (produced by the same vendor) have the same problem. I will try it and report here.

Hi Dominik, I have just installed 64studio, and there I used jackd to play a little bit around. I was able to manage playing something to the outputs I liked, with managing the outputs with qjackctl. I haven't yet tried different .asoundrc files. I was not able to play any sound with Suse 10.1. I hope I have spare time at the weekend to try the .asoundrc files I have.

[Alsa-user] Sound stops anomalous and goes on after some time
Hi, i'm using an asus mainboard with a via 8237 sound chip and coaxial s/pdif out. I'm trying to get the s/pdif working with oss-emulation and dmix. It works great and i'm absolutely satisfied with the setup except that the sound stops sometimes without any obvious reason. Sometimes it then goes on after a while, sometimes i have to restart the computer. I don't know if it is a problem with alsa, but maybe someone knows what's going wrong. Perhaps i'm using wrong values in the slave section in pcm.dmixer; i have copied them from another .asoundrc at the alsa homepage. Another thing is, that i have /dev/dsp, but programs using this device like audacity (or cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp) are mute. Mixer levels are all about 75% Any ideas? Thanks in advance, henrik Here are my .asoundrc and modules.conf (gentoo /etc/modules.d/alsa): pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "dmixer" } pcm.dmixer { type dmix ipc_key 1024# must be unique! ipc_perm 0660 # sound for everybody (at least in your group) slave { pcm "hw:0,0,3"# you cannot use a "plug" device here, darn. rate 48000 period_time 0 period_size 1024 # must be power of 2 buffer_size 8192 # dito } } pcm.dsp0 { type plug slave.pcm "dmixer" } ctl.mixer0 { type hw card 0 } alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx alias sound-slot-0 snd-via82xx alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

[Alsa-user] i810 (ich5) and SPDIF problem - pls help
Hi All, I'm in the process of building HD ready Myth box. Hw is ASUS P5P800 (i865 + i810 ICH5). Software is KnoppMyth R5D1 (debain based distro integrated with mythtv) Kernel is 2.6.17 Alsa is 1.0.12rc1 (reported via alsamixer) My problem is SPDIF out. My Hw is working OK - it tested SPDIF out under Winblows. Unfortunately under r5d1 I can't set-up SPDIF to work. "aplay -l" reports that IEC958 in on card 0, dev 4. Using "aplay -D hw:0,4 test.wav" gives nothing (no any change, SPDIF is all the time dead). File is OK, because "aplay -D hw:0,0 test.wav" (this is analog) is playing fine. In alsamixer there is no any setting related to iec958 or spdif - so it looks really strange. Maybe I have change something in modules.conf or How can I debug and troubleshot this problem ? many thanx in advance ! - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

Re: [Alsa-user] pcm.tee pluging
I've tried with pcm.hardware { type hw card 0 device 0 } pcm.file_raw { type plug slave { pcm "tee:hardware,/home/mario/a.raw" } } so instead of the default (which in my case is dmix) I use the hardware directly. And it works: xmms, mplayer & ekiga. Since I'm using alsa 1.0.11 rc and I've heard that dmix has got a bug, I will try again after upgrading my system to 1.0.12. cheers - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

On some sound cards this is the case.

Do you have any reference for this? Near the end of the wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minijack it reads Many small video cameras, laptops, Minidisc recoders and other consumer devices use a 3.5 mm microphone connector for attaching a (mono/stereo) microphone to the system. These fall into three categories: * ... * ... * Devices (most consumer equipment) which use a "plug-in powered" microphone: an electret microphone containing an internal FET amplifier. These provide a good quality signal, in a very small microphone. However, the internal FET requires a DC power supply, which is provided as a bias voltage. The expression "bias voltage", especially in connection with the diagram on the page, makes me believe that there is no principal reason that providing power forces mono recordings.

[Alsa-user] Tascam us428 - inputs 3 and 4 don't work
Hi all, some infos: suse 10.1 32bit alsa 1.0.11-32 alsa-firmware 1.0.10-13 alsa-tools 1.0.11-16 jack 1.101.1 (new 'cause I read there's a better support for us428 in new versions) I load the firmware with usx2yloader, then i run us428control. Everything seems fine: 1-2 ins, midi in and out, some Ardour controls work from the tascam...but no 'analog' nor 'digital' lights and, expecially, no sound from the 3-4 inputs. I tried in oss-mode, too and jack view all the 4 inputs but no way to use them in Audacity or Ardour. It seems a bug (it's not in the bug-list), I've found just this: http://www.nabble.com/-PATCH--Make-channels-3%2B4-of-US428-work-t243073.html#a679036 It's a post made the past year and seems to be a jack-patch but there's something about Alsa, too...sadly I'm a musician and I don't understand much about code! :-) ...and if this works with the new Alsa version. In the Alsa 'changes from past version' section I did't find anything about the us428 in the last year and I wonder (if it's a bug) if it's fixed. Ok, sorry for the long post (and for my ortography) but could someone explain me if it's possible to use ins 3-4 of my tascam, please? And how? Thank you very much for every help.

Re: [Alsa-user] snd-hda-intel problems
I've done a little more experimenting. It does not reliably alternate between the working and non-working states with module reloads, that was a fluke. It seems to be random, and sadly it also seem to favor the non-working state. I've compare the contents of /proc/asound in both states, and nothing differs there - in particular, codec#0 has exactly the same contents, whether the module load was "good" and gives me sound, or is "bad" and renders my computer silent. For now, i just restart the alsasound init script until my sound works. The only difference I can find is that when my sound does *not* work, the mixer has a simple mixer control labeled "SPDIF". My laptop lacks a physical SPDIF port, but perhaps when this happens, sound is being directed to an (unconnected) SPDIF output on the codec? In the "good" state, there is only the "Master" mixer control, and it can adjust the volume and mute/unmute my sound. The sound is also automatically redirected to the headphones if they are plugged in. Another oddity: in the "bad" state, alsamixer shows a "Master" and a "SPDIF" volume control. I can adjust and mute/unmute them independently, but if i close and reopen alsamixer, they will both match the state of whichever I adjusted last. -- Andrew Mahone andrew DOT mahone AT gmail DOT com - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
