Re: Bullseye Installer Fails to find soundcard
If the first possible port is hdmi it could be debian is getting hung up on that port and thinks it's your default port. This is not a new problem. Maybe a -nohdmi boot parameter could be added to instruct the installer to bypass all of those hdmi ports if that's the problem you're having. If you have an hdmi connection possible with your video monitor and this again is an hdmi problem maybe plugging a monitor into that hdmi port might solve the problem. On Sat, 15 Jan 2022, David J.

Bullseye Installer Fails to find soundcard
I'm just a user. I've been trying to install Bullseye since the Release Candidates, no luck. The accessible text installer fails to find my sound card. I think my sound card is the second one that Debian finds, so I select that. I do get sound in console once installed, but a blind person would not be able to install as there is no sound, unless they had a braille device. I've contacted debian-accessibility and debian-boot, but I just don't know where the problem is, Samual from debian-accessibility says it's alsa, but I'm not a programmer, or developer, I'm just a user.

This will hardly matter if your audio setup can't reproduce that or you can't tell the difference (I probably can't). In any case, a device with a hardware mixer allows more flexibility in playing audio from several sources without relying on pulseaudio or ALSA's dmix.

And that tells us that running Pulseaudio (or alsa-base post-install script) requests to load such kernel modules. > How can I make alsa/pulse remember my card after purge/reinstall? It's simple. Make your laptop enter this 'broken' state, in which no soundcard is 'found'. Execute /sbin/lsmod, redirect its output to some file. Make your laptop enter 'correct' state, execute /sbin/lsmod again, redirect the output to some other file. Compare two outputs, put the difference in /etc/modules. Since such approach is much of a band-aid - expect the things to break again once you'll upgrade to next Debian version. Reco

soundcard appearing as device, but not working

Issue with Intel soundcard and jack detection
Hi, I own an Asus P8P67 (https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/P8P67/specifications/), coming with an integrated Intel soundcard. The specs identifies the chipset as Realtek® ALC 892. OS is Debian 8.1 x64, up to date running Cinamon, but issue exists also with Gnome 3. With the speakers connected to the front panel jack, I had random volumes jumps, cracklings... After investigating with pulseaudio -vvv, I discovered that the jack was detected/undetected. Logs looked like: [pulseaudio] module-alsa-card.c: Jack 'Front Mic Jack' is now plugged in 2 similar bugs are here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1002480 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1004607 Please note that this is NOT an issue with my hardware/cables, since under Windows I have no issue at all (with Linux, sound is not stable more that 10 min). I was not able to solve the issue, but I found a workaround: I changed the jack detection delay like so: # cat /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf options snd-hda-intel jackpoll_ms=250 I'm fairly new to Debian, so I don't know how this could help others, or maybe be included in mainstream Debian?

During the Time of Squeeze, the ALC887 was quite new, and the drivers (don't know whether its snd-hda-intel or snd_hda_codec_realtek) probably can't / won't recognise this device.

I got an old computer and from there I picked up EISA Soundcard with YMF719E-S 9749 ZAGA chip. I would like to use it on my working computer under Lenny.

Mmm, that looks like a new sound codec or at least I've never seen that before. Have you tried with the usual things (alsamixer/gnome applet volume control) to configure the Intel card? Ensure you are using the Intel card because you also have a secondary one, coming from nvidia HDMI (cat / proc/asound/cards will tell what's the default). I could only found an Ubuntu bug for a similar card/chipset: *** [IDT ID 76e7] Dell Latitude E5520 - No sound through internal speakers, sound is only from headphones output with Ubuntu 10.04.2 and 10.10 - update Lucid ALSA LBM to latest release (1.0.24) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/792233 *** The bug points to the latest ALSA version but I'm not sure if that will solve your audio problem. To avoid messing up things, I would first try to load a LiveCD with the latest ALSA version (1.0.24) and see if that works. If yes, then consider upgrading ALSA for your Squeeze install.

no sound - invalid access on soundcard
Hi, I was fiddling around in virtualbox when suddenly the sound started stuttering on the host system. After I killed rhythmbox, sounds wouldn't play anymore (tried rhythmbox and aplay). I noticed the following entries in the logfile: /var/log/kern.log Apr 22 21:41:19 pc-steven kernel: [ 775.696004] eth0: no IPv6 routers present Apr 22 21:41:20 pc-steven kernel: [ 776.473516] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 Apr 22 21:41:20 pc-steven kernel: [ 776.504018] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0 Apr 22 21:47:33 pc-steven kernel: [ 1149.761000] warning: `VirtualBox' uses 32-bit capabilities (legacy support in use) Apr 22 21:48:40 pc-steven kernel: [ 1216.577409] __ratelimit: 1628 callbacks suppressed Apr 22 21:48:45 pc-steven kernel: [ 1221.584815] __ratelimit: 1426 callbacks suppressed Apr 22 21:48:50 pc-steven kernel: [ 1226.603878] __ratelimit: 1126 callbacks suppressed Those __ratelimit entries started piling up quite rapidly (starting at the point where sound started stuttering), closing rhythmbox reduced these number to around 500, then closing down virtual box reduced the number to less than 100. After rebooting (I rebooted twice to make sure), the sound didn't come up again, and looking at the logs I noticed the following in dmesg [4.308987] ENS1371 :07:00.0: PCI INT A - GSI 16 (level, low) - IRQ 16 [5.782051] AC'97 0 access is not valid [0x], removing mixer.

I turned off the machine, flipped the power button on the power supply into 'off' mode and removed the sound card. Not noticing anything strange or burnt, I put it back in, same slot (PCI) and let the machine start up again, the error was gone and sound was restored. But I still wonder what the cause of this issue was, a bug? A spark somewhere in the universe? Can anyone shine a light on this? The system is running Debian Squeeze, fully up to date, using nvidia driver 195.36.15, apart from that and the virtualbox modules, it's a pretty basic desktop install. If someone needs additional information, don't hesitate to ask. Up until now, I have been unable to reproduce the problem.

Soundcard not detected after reboot with Lenny
Hi all, I have a problem with my on-board sound card. I have an Asus A8N-SLI motherboard with on-board nVidia CK804 AC'97 audio controller. When I reboot my computer (Lenny) it is not recognised. I get no sound. When I run `asoundconf list` I get two choices: HDMI and UART. Neither gives me sound. Then I run `alsaconf` as root and it offers me three soundcards to choose from: hda-intel: ATI Technologies Inc HD48x0 audio intel8x0: nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller (rev a2) mpu401:snd-mpu401 Strange, since I have no extra soundcards in this system. Just what's on the motherboard. When I pick the nVidia card and let alsaconf finish configuration I get working sound, but after a reboot the sound is gone again. After I fix my sound with alsaconf, running `asoundconf list` only gives me one option: CK804.

It looks like the hda intel card is being detected first, and grabbing the slot for card0, then the actual sound card that is set to use card0 can no longer use it, as that slot is occupied. I'd suggest adding a couple of extra options lines to /etc/modprobe.d/sound, as below, reboot, and see how that goes. options snd-hda-intel index=1 options snd-mpu401 index=2 The snd-mpu401 is for the games/midi connection on your soundcard The snd-hda-intel looks like it's for some sound component on the graphics card, probably HDMI. from your lspci above 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Device 944c 03:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc HD48x0 audio All the best.

USB Soundcard: Too Little Bandwidth?
I have Debian Etch running on a Soekris net5501 (info: http://www.soekris.com/net5501.htm). It's a 433 Mhz system with a CS5536 (seen as a 586 chip) and it has a USB 2.0 interface on it. I'm using a USB sound card by Startech. Here's what I get from lsusb on that: Bus 001 Device 019: ID 0d8c:000c C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter When I run arecord, I get this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]$ arecord -D hw:0,0 -d 10 -f S16 -r 44100 -c 1 file.wav Recording WAVE 'file.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Mono arecord: xrun:1093: read/write error, state = PREPARED (There's a reason I'm doing this as root, don't feel like going into it, so let's just say I do as little as I can as root and leave it at that.) I tried it like this also: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]$ arecord -D hw:0,0 -d 10 -f S16 -r 22050 -c 1 file.wav Recording WAVE 'file.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 22050 Hz, Mono Warning: rate is not accurate (requested = 22050Hz, got = 44100Hz) please, try the plug plugin So I try (I think this is what it meant to try): [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]$ arecord -D plughw:0 -d 10 -f S16 -r 22050 -c 1 file.wav Recording WAVE 'file.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 22050 Hz, Mono arecord: xrun:1093: read/write error, state = PREPARED I find this with dmesg: cannot submit datapipe for urb 0, error -28: not enough bandwidth So it appears the whole issue is not enough bandwidth on the USB input to handle recording sound off the USB sound card. I'm using a Belkin hub and, while I couldn't be sure of model numbers, I've found references to people using USB sound cards with Belkin hubs. I know this is not a high power mainboard, but it is using USB 2.0, so I figure it should handle this. I do have other devices hooked up to the same hub (2 printers, one through a USB-Parallel converter) and a HD radio that is controlled by a program on that computer. Is this just a case where I won't be able to get the bandwidth through a USB 2.0 connection or is there more to it than that? Is there some way I can make this work or would I need a regular sound card? (There's only 1 PCI slot on this board because it's an embedded system, so resources are limited.) While I realize this system may just not be able to handle this, I'm hoping it will work out without me having to use some other kind of card. Thanks for any info on this.

Re: soundcard recognized but not accessible
For Debian kernels, it is in /boot/config-$(uname-r). ok, thanks. Nice, please report success or failure then. the soundcard works with the modules from alsa-drivers without any problems. Note that you will have to rebuild the module for every new kernel version (whenever the ABI and thus the name of the linux-2.6-something package changes, not if only the Debian revision is increased). well, i think i will be able to live with that :-D thanks for helping me! best, -- Lubos [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lubos.vrbka.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Create a file/modify the existing one to be similar to the one I show below with the module for your PCI card being the first (snd-card-0 index=0 lines) then have your onboard as the second (snd-card-1 index=1 lines). Now when you start your machine the cards should be detected and used in the proper order. cat /etc/modprobe.d/sound alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 options snd-emu10k1 index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-intel-hda options snd-intel-hda index=1 alias snd-card-2 snd-bt87x options snd-bt87x index=2 Stephen Sorry, but this doesn't help. I tried: alias snd-card-0 snd-cmipci options snd-cmipci index=0 alias snd-card-1 snd-intel-hda options snd-intel-hda index=1 alias snd-card-2 off but after reboot, still no sound from cmi, i guess intel was playing.. alsactl store also didn't helped.

Etch / ThinkPad 600E / How to blacklist the soundcard?
Significant changes have been made between Sarge and Etch. The files mentioned long long ago to cure PnP trying to load an AC97 driver for a ThinkPad 600E with integrated CS423x chip are no longer there. Where has the inequivalent functionality been moved?

I am running Sarge with the 2.6x i686 kernel. Is skip/blacklist the only option in Debian to skip a driver? There is no method to remove drivers from the master list of drivers vs the logic flow of detected but I am suppose to skip it? My 600E was also loading the ac97 driver, so I added it in these spots as well, and it no longer loads either. I will try dropping ac97 to see if these lines were actually enough, maybe it trying ac97 was a side affect of the cs64xx failing. -- Michael Lueck Lueck Data Systems http://www.lueckdatasystems.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Regards, Ralph --1e1c94ce6334cecf9b45d8dce1e521fb I had a similar problem when I upgraded to etch. I'm not sure if this was mentioned yet, but what I had to do was: 1. Run alsaconf 2. Run alsactl store 3. Add my soundcard kernel module in /etc/modules, so that the module would be loaded at boot. In my case I added the module snd_cs4236. I know that's frustrating - took me a few weeks before I had it figured out. Best of luck. Regards, Barry Smith How do I figure out what the module name is for my sound card? I've never really used modules besides my ipw3945 one, so I'm inexperienced when it comes to them. Ummm... that's a good question. I figured out what my soundcard was through looking at the specs at Dell, and then finding out which module most closely matched its name. It reminds me of trying to figure out how a word is spelled in the dictionary - you look around for how you *think* its spelled. (Also I used Google a lot.) When you run alsaconf, it will probably give you a name that closely matches the module. For example, when I run alsaconf and Soundcard Selection appears, it comes up with a line that says 'cs4236 CS4236B'. I knew that was probably close to the name of my module - snd_cs4236. If you really don't have a clue, google what alsaconf gives you (I had to dig around for this, too). Also - now I remember. If you run alsaconf, and it works (you get sound) - then when you type 'lsmod' as root you will get a list that *includes* your new sound module, b/c your sound wouldn't be working without that module in place. So, here's what I did. 1. Boot the computer. 2. Run lsmod, and save the results to a file: lsmod /tmp/modulesfile1 3. Run alsaconf. 4. Run lsmod again, and save the results to a file: lsmod /tmp/modulesfile2. 5. Now compare the two files - I did this by just running a diff on both: diff /tmp/modulesfile1 /tmp/modulesfile2 6. Once you see the differences, you'll know which modules to add to /etc/modules (I think maybe sometimes you need more than one module). Good luck.

And Colin is right, can't imagine why this isn't handled nor mentioned by the debian pkgs. Now, my remaining sound issue is the fixing esound or other playing sounds simultaneously solution.

Step 3 should at least be asked as a question as part of alsaconf. I have no idea why Debian doesn't do this.

I would suggest a kernel recompile without using module, just compile alsa and only your specific sound card related module in the kernel. This could be enough. Regards, Ralph raffaele
