Hi, > > $ speaker-test -c6 -Dspdif:1> >> > speaker-test 1.0.11>> See http://alsa.opensrc.org/DigitalOut, for syntaxNot sure, what should be wrong with my syntax... But maybe some more information: $ aplay -l**** Liste von PLAYBACK Geräten ****Karte 0: Intel [HDA Intel], Gerät 0: AD198x Analog [AD198x Analog] Untergeordnete Geräte: 1/1 Untergeordnetes Gerät '0: subdevice #0Karte 0: Intel [HDA Intel], Gerät 1: AD198x Digital [AD198x Digital] Untergeordnete Geräte: 1/1 Untergeordnetes Gerät '0: subdevice #0Karte 1: Audio [USB Audio], Gerät 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Untergeordnete Geräte: 1/1 Untergeordnetes Gerät '0: subdevice #0 So unlike the above mentioned website, this soundcard has no special device for the digital output... (The Intel stuff is the internal soundcard and modem) with no .asoundrc : $ speaker-test -c2 -Dhw:1 This works fine, sound on both speakers. $ speaker-test -c6 -Dhw:1 speaker-test 1.0.11 Das Wiedergabegerät ist hw:1Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 6 channelsUsing 16 octaves of pink noiseSamplingrate auf 48000Hz gesetzt (gefordert waren 48000Hz)Buffer size range from 96 to 87381Period size range from 48 to 43690Using max buffer size 87381Periods = 4was set period_size = 0was set buffer_size = 87381Unable to set sw params for playback: Invalid argumentSetzen der Softwareparameter gescheitert: Invalid argument So this does not work. Now I create a .asoundrc with: pcm.dmix51 { type dmix ipc_key 1024 ipc_key_add_uid false ipc_perm 0666 slave { pcm "hw:1,0" channels 6 period_time 0 period_size 1024 buffer_size 8192 }} pcm.corr { type route slave.pcm "dmix51" slave.channels 6 ttable.0.0 1 ttable.1.1 1 ttable.2.5 1 ttable.3.4 1 ttable.4.2 1 ttable.5.3 1} $ speaker-test -c6 -Dcorr Now I get sound on all speakers (and using the corr device also on the correct speaker) But still only through the analog output. Here:http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/alsa-lib/pcm_plugins.htmlI found, that there is a IEC958 plugin, which is, as far as I know, another name for spdif? pcm.digital { type iec958 slave { pcm "hw:1,0" }} This gives me errors: $ speaker-test -c6 -Ddigital speaker-test 1.0.11 Das Wiedergabegerät ist digitalStream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 6 channelsUsing 16 octaves of pink noiseALSA lib pcm.c:6661:(snd_pcm_slave_conf) missing field formatPlayback open error: -22,Invalid argument So I tried to add a format field: pcm.digital { type iec958 slave { pcm "plughw:1,0" format "S16_LE" }} But still no luck: $ speaker-test -c6 -Ddigital speaker-test 1.0.11 Das Wiedergabegerät ist digitalStream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 6 channelsUsing 16 octaves of pink noiseSample format not available for playback: Invalid argumentSetzen der Hardwareparameter gescheitert: Invalid argument According to this page:http://alsa.opensrc.org/Terratec_Aureon_5.1_USB_MK.2this card has 16Bit, so S16_LE should be correct???There is not much documentation what formats exist, I only found S32_LE. But that changes nothing. Any Ideas? Stephan -------------------------------------------------------------------------Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
