Would like to add that I have an ASUS P5Q motherboard. I added the line to /etc/modprobe/alsa-base.conf and sound started working for me -- but only for a bit into each playback attempt. Eventually sound tanks and I have to quit/terminate all applications that emit sound.
Also doesn't seem to handle multiple sources of playback simultaneously. Any tricks to getting this going cleanly? -- [REGRESSION] Mobo Asus P5Q * needs newer Alsa to work again SPDIF https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/352556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
