Re: [Alsa-user] volume keeps resetting at play
hello again, i still havent been able to fix the problem of the self-setting pcm_front channel. i have no idea where or how this happens. wasnt able to find anything logged about it, nor was i able to google a resolution or even find a hint in the soundcardlist. this is my soundcard: cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [SI7018 ]: SI7018 - SiS SI7018 SiS SI7018 PCI Audio at 0xd800, irq 11 1 [UART ]: MPU-401 UART - MPU-401 UART MPU-401 UART at 0x300, irq 10 this didnt happen with a previous install of xubuntu, but i dont quite see the difference or what could be the problem as i now use ubuntu. if i open up a alsamixer i can see the volume go up everytime i play something, resetting just works for the playing song/movie, next title and it goes up again. may this be a gnome problem? i fiddled every option related to sound in gnome i could find but to no avail. someone help me out please, the sound is just terrible this way (distorts when pcm_front sets itself to 100%), and i dont have any other music source then this machine. id gladly try out whatever tip you can give me. thanks, jonas On Sat, 2006-10-14 at 19:56 +0100, sonicx wrote: hy, im a little bit confused - i use alsa for quite some time now, but one of my systems (a diskless ubuntu) keeps resetting the volume of the front_pcm chan to 100% everytime i play something through it. if i play a song, set it to 80% it stays like that till the next song plays and then resets. strangely the mastervolume doesnt act like that and is correctly saved at reboot. it doesnt matter what program i use - as soon as it tries to access the spu anew it set front to 100% again. none of my other systems has that problem. this happends regardless of the nfsroot being writable or not. the homedirs are always rw. also - the gnomemixer crashes when this happens. everytime, if i set the volume down before.this cant be the usual behavior. could somebody point me in the right direction? jonas - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Re: [Alsa-user] volume keeps resetting at play
i just noticed that if there is nothing playing and i start alsamixer first, the channel in question doesnt even appear. it appears everytime i hit play and seems to vanish as soon as i stop. jonas On Thu, 2006-10-19 at 13:48 -0400, Lee Revell wrote: On Thu, 2006-10-19 at 19:47 +0100, sonicx wrote: hello again, i still havent been able to fix the problem of the self-setting pcm_front channel. i have no idea where or how this happens. wasnt able to find anything logged about it, nor was i able to google a resolution or even find a hint in the soundcardlist. this is my soundcard: cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [SI7018 ]: SI7018 - SiS SI7018 SiS SI7018 PCI Audio at 0xd800, irq 11 1 [UART ]: MPU-401 UART - MPU-401 UART MPU-401 UART at 0x300, irq 10 this didnt happen with a previous install of xubuntu, but i dont quite see the difference or what could be the problem as i now use ubuntu. if i open up a alsamixer i can see the volume go up everytime i play something, resetting just works for the playing song/movie, next title and it goes up again. may this be a gnome problem? i fiddled every option related to sound in gnome i could find but to no avail. someone help me out please, the sound is just terrible this way (distorts when pcm_front sets itself to 100%), and i dont have any other music source then this machine. id gladly try out whatever tip you can give me. thanks, Which application are you testing with?

Re: [Alsa-user] volume keeps resetting at play
thanks for your reply. i tried xmms,rhytmbox,mplayer,xine... all the same. even aplay! i just give it a aplay without anything else, let it just play nothing , and it still happens. also, same thing with ossemulation and the meantioned apps. every system sound, every icq-beep, everything sets the volume up. to 99% not 100% as i wrote before. i set it to zero, icq makes a noise, it back to 99... dont think its an application problem, as everyapplication that spits out noise seems to do this. even my beloved quake2. jonas On Thu, 2006-10-19 at 13:48 -0400, Lee Revell wrote: On Thu, 2006-10-19 at 19:47 +0100, sonicx wrote: hello again, i still havent been able to fix the problem of the self-setting pcm_front channel. i have no idea where or how this happens. wasnt able to find anything logged about it, nor was i able to google a resolution or even find a hint in the soundcardlist. this is my soundcard: cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [SI7018 ]: SI7018 - SiS SI7018 SiS SI7018 PCI Audio at 0xd800, irq 11 1 [UART ]: MPU-401 UART - MPU-401 UART MPU-401 UART at 0x300, irq 10 this didnt happen with a previous install of xubuntu, but i dont quite see the difference or what could be the problem as i now use ubuntu. if i open up a alsamixer i can see the volume go up everytime i play something, resetting just works for the playing song/movie, next title and it goes up again. may this be a gnome problem? i fiddled every option related to sound in gnome i could find but to no avail. someone help me out please, the sound is just terrible this way (distorts when pcm_front sets itself to 100%), and i dont have any other music source then this machine. id gladly try out whatever tip you can give me. thanks, Which application are you testing with?

[Alsa-user] volume keeps resetting at play
hy, im a little bit confused - i use alsa for quite some time now, but one of my systems (a diskless ubuntu) keeps resetting the volume of the front_pcm chan to 100% everytime i play something through it. if i play a song, set it to 80% it stays like that till the next song plays and then resets. strangely the mastervolume doesnt act like that and is correctly saved at reboot. it doesnt matter what program i use - as soon as it tries to access the spu anew it set front to 100% again. none of my other systems has that problem. this happends regardless of the nfsroot being writable or not. the homedirs are always rw. also - the gnomemixer crashes when this happens. everytime, if i set the volume down before.this cant be the usual behavior. could somebody point me in the right direction? jonas - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
