I just purchased SB Live! 24-bit External usb for my laptop. According to alsa docs I compiled the snd-usb-audio module but I can only get PCM mixer Output from amixer: Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined cvolume pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 100 Capture 0 - 15 Mono: Playback 59 [59%] [-20.50dB] [on] Capture 0 [0%] [0.00dB] It works but I have no surround, the sound is choppy, no digital output (needed for 4.1 home theater system), no other device to switch on, and strange behaviour (crazy mute/unmute) plugging/unplugging the connectors. I'm running alsa 1.0.14_rc2 on 2.6.19 kernel, is this normal or I missed something? Thanks for your help ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
