Hi Shane,

I'm afraid I haven't tested the S/PDIF output as I don't have suitable 
equipment to connect it to. However I believe it should work as there is a 
forced configuration option in alsa-kernel/pci/ac97/ac97_patch.c which 
specifically enables it.

Hope this helps

Ron

Thanks Lee,

This is the first time I've tried as it's a new board. 

I'm still interested in hearing from anyone else with either an SP1300 or 
SP8000 for their experiences.

Alsa version: 1.0.10rc1 
alsa-lib version :1.0.10 
kernel is 2.6.14-epios-r501

I've been thinking of posting to the alsa-devel list as I've been looking at 
the source and a small hack to ac97_patch.c enables a couple of extra options 
in alsamixer which work when selected but give a couple of run-time warnings 
when alsamixer is run. Unfortunately they're not the options I'm after...

File a bug report, sounds like a driver problem.

Make sure to include ALSA (lib and driver) and kernel version and
whether this ever worked with any previous version.

Yes that's the exact command line I'm using and it only produces sound from 
the front L/R speakers.

How are you testing it?

Does "speaker-test -D surround51 -c 6" produce sound in all channels?

[Alsa-user] Epia SP1300 (VIA 8237 with VIA1617A) 5.1 from jacks

2006-01-15 Thread Ron Simpkin
Hi

I've been trying for days now to get this to work, but it seems that no matter 
what I try I only get sound from the front L/R speakers.

I can mix the other channels into the front L/R using .asoundrc but this isn't 
what I want.

Has anyone had any luck with this?

Cheers

Ron
