Raymond thank you for your help.
I am still having problems.
If I run aplay -l or use alsamixer my card is reported as "Xonar U7
Echelon Ed."
here's the relevant part from aplay -l
card 3: Ed [Xonar U7 Echelon Ed.], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 3: Ed [Xonar U7 Echelon Ed.], device 1: USB Audio [USB Audio #1]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 3: Ed [Xonar U7 Echelon Ed.], device 2: USB Audio [USB Audio #2]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
So I add
# number for the iec958 device can be changed here.
USB-Audio.pcm.iec958_device {
# "NoiseBlaster 3000" 42
"USB Sound Blaster HD" 1
"Xonar U7 Echelon Ed." 1
to USB-Audio.conf and restart audio with "pulseausio -k && sudo alsa
force-reload" and nothing changes
As before, pavucontrol shows "Digital Stereo (IEC958 Output)" as one of
the configuration options for card "Xonar U7 Echelon Ed." but when I
select that option the card plays analog not digital.
So - either I need to do something else or I have the card name wrong.
How can I prove I have the correct card name?
