This is on a test fc6 install (x86_64), I logged in using kde, went to the "Control Center" then "Sound and Multimedia", then "Sound System", then the tab labeled "Hardware" and I finally selected "Advanced Linux Sound Architecture" from the plugin.

You may need to logout and the login again for kde to see changes in the alsa configuration (like changing the ordering of cards). It may also be necessary to restart the audio subsystem but fc6 does not provide a way to do this out of the box (AFAIK). -- Fernando - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Yeah, I've been told its poor form to answer ones own posts, but I got it. 1: I nuked all the stuff in my modprobe.conf that matched the stuff in /etc/modprobe.d/*, but left those 6 lines that system-config-soundcard had written there before. 2: I rebooted again and checked the stuff in /proc/asound, looked good to me, but what do I know. 3: system-config-soundcard still worked as I expected, no surprise there. 4: on running the kde control-center, Sound & whatever, sound, I found a new multi-selector box that wasn't present before that allowed me to set the default device for kde. It was set for the nvidia stuff, but could be changed to the Creative/Audigy system also, which I did, and now it all works. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Humm, the $64k question then is are we talking about the cards after
they've had the 0/1 position swapped by the above index statements, or
before?
If this is actually documented someplace, point me at them please..

New info: I ran system-config-soundcard, the fedora gizmo to do this, and it saw both cards, and could properly test both cards AND assign them as device 0 and device 1, so I had it switch them. However x/kde seems to have a mind of its own because at the same time the tests worked properly, kde was driving my skype headphones plugged into the motherboard in its own in its own control-center/sound/devices menu's plus when you query for devices, it brings up the various API's, like alsa, esound, oss yadda yadda. After I'd ran system-config-soundcard, I had this at the bottom of my modprobe.conf: options snd cards_limit=8 alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 options snd-emu10k1 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-intel8x0 options snd-intel8x0 index=1 I says that's neat, and moved the rest of those aliases & options to a point below it in the file, then rebooted. Now system-config-soundcard can't make a sound through the nvidia stuff at all, and kde now completely muted. This system-config-soundcard can generate a log that pretty well samples the system so its bulky and its attached. Maybe there are some clues in it? All this worked great for FC2. If this isn't helpfull, does anyone know howto make the system log those actions where it reads modprobe.conf so that one can troubleshoot a fubared setup? -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

It lets you select which card is the default and also which card is first (something I think is new in fc6). -- Fernando - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Alsa-user] FC6 audio differences
Hi,
I have FC6, Audigy and integrated via8233.
For me system-config-soundcard worked well.
For reference here is what I have in modprobe.conf (generated by
system-config-soundcard)
options snd cards_limit=8
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
options snd-emu10k1 index=0
alias snd-card-1 snd-via82xx
options snd-via82xx index=1
and in asound.conf (generated by system-config-soundcard too)
#Generated by system-config-soundcard, do not edit by hand
#SWCONF
#DEV 0
defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.pcm.device 0
defaults.ctl.card 0

You may have to uncomment the above 2 options lines. I havn't had problems with my Audigy2 soundblaster being set as card0, and snd-usb-audio as card1 since FC3 IIRC, and the only entries in FC5's /etc/modprobe.conf are for emu10k1, no reference to snd-usb-audio, but it amazingly just works. Could be worth checking /sbin/lsmod as well to see if the emu10k1 stuff is being loaded. And not wishing to be a party pooper, but perhaps the FC2 /etc/modprobe.conf just won't play with FC6. Over.

If you don't run legacy OSS apps, the cleanest solution is the way gnome-sound-properties does it (define "default" PCM in per-user .asoundrc) Lee - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

[Alsa-user] FC6 audio differences
Hello all;
In an effort to make sure my dual audio setup continued to work, I
transfered my FC2's modprobe.conf to the FC6 version. It should work
right?
Well, after the last reboot I noticed I didn't have any sound from the
speakers hooked to the Audigy 2, my tv cards audio was coming out of the
headphones plugged into the nvidia onboard stuff.
Here is that modprobe.conf, designed to make the audigy 2 the primary,
snd-slot-0 card, and the nvidia the snd-slot-1 card.
