In the Output Plugin: Audio device : UAC3556B: USB Audio(hw:2,0) (libALSA.so) Yet with all the above configuration(s) set, the output doesn't go to the USB headphone. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help. You need to set play mode to digital audio extraction *not* analog! The rest should be ok, make sure your path to your CD is configured correctly.

So, you have to be more specific regarding CD playback - player application, intent to play CD using analog CD-Rom ouput (and thus analog audio card input) or using PCM (digital) CD-ROM output, OSS/ALSA layer, etc. ___ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user

The output is not reaching the headphones i.e, Micronas UAC3556B hardware. So I go thru the Alas Mixer app in the RHEL4.0 installation and yet no audio output in the headphones. I couldn't find any documentation or HowTo for configuring this hardware. Is this detail enough to describe the problem? Please let me know. Thanks for your reply. V.A.

Krishnan ___ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user As Lee Revell correctly pointed out, since your card is external, its analog input is by definition disconnected from CD-ROM analog output. I think you need this plugin: Name: xmms-cdread Version: 0.14a-5mdk Architecture: i586 Size: 62 KB Medium: contrib Currently installed version: (none) Summary: Input plugin that reads audio data from CDs Description: This is an alternative to the xmms audio CD plugin with advanced features.

That way you don't need a cable from the CD-ROM to the sound card and you can use the usual effect and visualization plugins. Files: /usr/lib/xmms/Input/libcdparanoia.so /usr/share/doc/cdparanoia-plugin-0.1 /usr/share/doc/cdparanoia-plugin-0.1/README - have you ever heard of 'cdparanoia' ?
