Haven't tried to capture audio yet, but for the distortion, I am
guessing you are talking about crackling kind of sound, like
interference. Things to possibly look at is the priority of the modules
that supply the sound. I have had problems in the passed(not my current
via8235) with dma clashes, or not dma enabled for the card. Also with
xmms not having enough priority that the sound keeps being interrupted
on small intervals causing a crackling kind of sound. Another possibilty
is the sampling rate. I unfortantely don't now much about this
implementation and therse are only theories. Some time in the future I
will go look at the source when I have time.

There is no alsa plugin in the pull down.

Still very distorted. It's not the clipping sort of
distortion. It's the strange, mostly high-end distortion
many have described here on this list regarding the via82xx.

I am also unable to capture audio as described by others
here.

Try bringing down the volume to about 50% on main and PCM and see what
happens. I have found that with my drivers, even if I bing down the main
volume, my xmms would still distort. I must bring down its volume to
about 80% for good undistorted quality.

apt-get install alsa-xmms

Remember that alsa is not OSS. Alsa can emulate OSS but in that case you
should state it in the ./configure --with-oss=yes part. It should be the
default, but I have found that with previous compiles it did not default
to include OSS support through alsa. This is just a after thought

Sorry, meant VIA DXS controls. 

What happens if you play songs through XMMS with the the XMMS-ALSA
plugin?

'vsx stuff'? I'm not sure what you're talking about. BTW,
I'm using Debian Unstable also and I'm not having very good

Over the weekend I have rebuild my alsa in Debian Unstable. My sound
works perfectly with the same chipset via8235. Check that your vsx stuff
is all up fully and enabled. I don't know what they are for, but I
remember previously having trouble getting my sound card on my Gigabyte

[Alsa-user] problem with the driver via82xx

2003-05-27 Thread Alkex
Hi I'm tring to get the sound workning, my sound card is buil in in the
mainboard and the chipset is via8235


I'm running debian unstable and using alsa 0.9.3 

the module are loaded properly but i can't ear any sound, I've just
checked with alsamixer that all the valume ar enable and up


is there maybe a bug in the driver ?

2 week ago i was able to listen some sound but there was a lot of noise


any idea about how to solve the problem?

thanks in advance

Alessio
