2009-03-30 Thread Daniel T Chen
Ah, apologies- Generic is an oft-used string for USB headsets from Plantronics. asoundconf appears to be a red herring for most users given the advent of PulseAudio; we'll be removing it from karmic's alsa-utils (Debian won't ship it, either). Can you test `aplay -Dplughw:1

Daniel, isn't that the *sound device* does not exist, not the *file* ? Susan, what is strange here is first, that you run alsa 1.0.19...AFAIK no Ubuntu version ships with 1.0.19? Second is the output Audio devices: NOT ENABLED IN CONFIG. Perhaps an alsa-info.sh will help here, Susan, can you

I should add another comment. The last development alsa-drivers did not have a copy of my X-fi driver. (Some of them do not.) So the asound.state file reflects that. -- purging pulseaudio results in no sound at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/350411 You received this bug notification

No. I do not use USB. I have a built-in Intel card, and i have a Creative X-fi card. To get that, I have to compile my own drivers, but they have always worked before now. And neither driver works -- Neither intel nor generic (Xffi). I just re-installed Studio. The RT kernel does not install

Since filing this bug I have determined that it is invalid. Here is what happens. I install ubuntu-studio and it installs by default the rt kernel. Then the automatic updates install the generic kernel. Sound only works with the rt kernel. I don't know why. -- purging pulseaudio results in
