fine! then the only problem were the settings of the matrix mixer (all
channels are muted after reboot). you just have to set gain values >0
for the correct channels as described at the bottom of this site:
http://alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=RME&card=Hammerfall+DSP+9652.&chip=FPGA&module=hdsp
Starting hdspmixer loads some default values and this way unmutes some
channels. (i don't know which, perhaps a 1/1 mapping from playback
channels to physical output channels. i depends on the preset you choose
in the hdspmixer application)
you can always set the matrix mixer gain values with the
amixer ... cest numid=5 ...
commands shown on the alsa-project website about the hdsp module (linke
above).
