Well for some reason my pulseaudio sound just stopped a couple of days ago. Not sure why it stopped, so I revisited my old post (#96) to get my workaround for my (ICE1712 - Hoontech STA DSP24 Media 7.1) card working again under Maverick but the alsa mod didn't work. So I read further and a couple of posts caught my attention.
I now have to agree with #112 and #113 in tweaking pulseaudio rather than alsa. Using Jack and apps like Hydrogen, Rosegarden all work fine with my card as Jack is not using pulse. So, I tried the solution at #52 as suggested but used the via- ice1712.conf direct from PulseAudio ticket #624 here: http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/624 (rather than the one at #53) and rebooted and now confirm that pulse is working even better than using the previous ALSA mod for me. I now have additional outputs to select in sound preferences and there are now sliders to control 'balance', 'fader', and 'subwoofer' which were never there before. -- Pulseaudio fails to initialize ICE17xx chipsets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/178442 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
