See: http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntustudio-test...@lists.launchpad.net/msg00351.html I had the same issue with Suse 11.2 and I could solve it by adding those two lines for Suse 11.2 too. @ Pablo: Thank you, thank you, thank you Pablo :) @ anybody who is pro PA: PA for rt audio users is a PITA. It might have advantages for the averaged desktop user, but we should get rid of it for rt audio distros. As I told before, until now I prefer 64 Studio, it's based on Ubuntu, but ships without PA by default, hence using flashplayer without JACK support and JACK at the same time is no problem. While Suse isn't important for me, Ubuntu Studio is very interesting for my needs. There might be reasons to come with PA by default, but if so, the distro should take care of those two lines in /usr/share/alsa/cards/ICE1712.conf. I wonder if it's easy to get rid of PA, when building dummy packages by equivs, to keep package dependencies consistent and what needs to be set up in addition?! Man, Envy24 cards are very common, because they are the most cheap rt capable cards, no distro should have issues when using those cards. Btw. there will come a successor for envy24control soon, maybe there already is a successor, I didn't lurk LAD the last weeks. For Suse only I'm running the first version + a manual edit of it's successor and it's still named envy24control, but AFAIR the renamed it. Cheers!

Thank you Pablo, it does solve this issue :).
I wonder what will happen, if I make my 2 Terratec EWX 24/96 cards 1 virtual
card, anyway, today I just tested to get 1 of the 2 cards ready to work.
I tested analog stereo for KMPLayer set up to use PA and the sound preferences
were set up to analog stereo output and simultaneous output for both cards,
while I just tested one of the cards, but the sound was ok :).
Anyway, before this test Movie Player crashed and there are issues for the
website of a friend, http://achimjaroschek.com/music.html, while sound was ok
for his YouTube channel, e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mu6uFtCASYc.
This does the trick:
$ cat /usr/share/alsa/cards/ICE1712.conf
#
# Configuration for the ICE1712 (Envy24) chip
#
[snip]
confdir:pcm/front.conf
ICE1712.pcm.front.0 {
@args [ CARD ]
@args.CARD {

ttable.1.1 1
slave.pcm {
type hw
card $CARD
}
fix PA issue
slave.format S32_LE
slave.channels 10
##
}
[snip]
Unfortunately there are still many issues and today there are some new issues.
I don't have those issues with 64 Studio 3.0 beta (Hardy) and 3.3 alpha
(Karmic) amd64.
I'm still in a production with recordings Achim and I made, so there's no time
to fix Ubuntu Studio right now. I'm doing the production using 64 Studio 3.3
alpha and even if the software works without issues, it's still tricky and time
consuming and there always is the risk of a crash, so I can't use Linux for
recording Achim and friends or other serious musicians who are short in time,
only if there's a lot of time, it can be used for post processing. IMO for
Ubuntu Studio it would help to remove desktop stuff like PA from the distro.
This and next month Achim does some concerts in Germany,
http://achimjaroschek.com/, certainly I'll be at the concerts in the Ruhrgebiet.
The next 6 month I'll do a job with elementary school kids, but professional
musicians, it might be that Linux could be more interesting then.
2. Does anybody know how to add libflashsupport-jack? Compiling and
installing seems to be ok, I guess there's an issue regarding to set up
everything correctly.
I am not sure. I am checking this post and comments:
http://www.linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=4t=2323st=0sk=tsd=ahilit=flash+player
Please, let us know if you solve this.
Again, thank you :). If I should have more time, I'll continue and let you know
what happened.
To be continued
