 not working seems to be expected; a segfault seems like a bug

What I was trying to say is that you can expect the bug: if you define
a pcm device named surround51 as a vdownmix type, and then 'plug' it
as a slave pcm in another vdownmix type pcm device...well, here comes
the bug. :)

 With your setup, does speaker-test -c 6 -t wav generate sound for all
 six channels?

Ok, so I don't get the .1 output either, but is it relevant here ? The
speaker test doesn't output it, but any 5.1 video just plays fine, 6
channels and all. At lest I assume, since I don't feel like there's
any sound missing while watching...

 It certainly *shouldn't* depend on the sound card.  Mixing 5.1 to 2.0 in
 software should work anywhere, and I have working 2.0.  Of course, that
 doesn't mean it *doesn't* depend on the sound card, just that it
 *shouldn't*. :)

Well, here is what I get on an X60:


~$ speaker-test -c 6 -t wav

speaker-test 1.0.20

Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 6 channels
WAV file(s)
Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz)
Buffer size range from 64 to 16384
Period size range from 32 to 8192
Using max buffer size 16384
Periods = 4
was set period_size = 4096
was set buffer_size = 16384
 0 - Front Left
 4 - Center
 1 - Front Right
 3 - Rear Right
 2 - Rear Left
 5 - LFE
Time per period = 8,401077


I'll be glad to further test too, since there's obviously something
strange here.

Cheers.

Bug#503839: [Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#503839: /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_vdownmix.so: vdownmix from 5.1 does not incorporate LFE channel

2009-09-05 Thread Elimar Riesebieter
* Josh Triplett [081028 09:45 -0700]
 Package: libasound2-plugins
 Version: 1.0.16-1+b1
 Severity: normal
 File: /usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_vdownmix.so
 
 The vdownmix plugin suggests this for .asoundrc:
 
 pcm.!surround51 {
   type vdownmix
   slave.pcm default
 }
 
 Using that setup and a pair of stereo speakers or headphones, I ran
 speaker-test -D surround51 -c 6 -t wav.  The audio for the front
 left, front center, front right, rear left, and rear right speakers
 came through just fine (and even sounded spatially correct with
 headphones), but the LFE channel (the .1) did not produce any audio.

Could you please update to the latest version and test again?

Still a bug in libasound2-plugins 1.0.20-1.
