Attaching output from aadebug.
New info:
I did a test and changed the default from dmix-digital to dmix-analog
and the analog tv content made it to the headphone jack. Of course in
this test the digital pass thru is garbage.
I've come to the conclusion that /etc/asound.conf is fine. They system
is responding to changes. I suspect the simple codecs?? have been blown
away. For example the bell doesn't play and *.wav files don't play.
Only AC-3/DTS passthrough works.
I noticed that the default xine pass through port was
audio.device.alsa_passthrough_device:iec958:AES0=0x6,AES1=0x82,AES2=0x0,AES3=0x2
I wonder if that hosed something up at a really low level.
Thanks for helping,
Jon

Hi,
Everything been working great for quite a while. I use a spdif
connection between my htpc and my receiver. I used dmix as my
alsa:default thus passing analog and digital audio thru this connection.
See the attached asound.conf.
I was playing with xine tonight and at one point it popped up some
message about not gaining access to the audio channel. Don't know if
that was the cause of the problem but now my analog audio pass thru to
the spdif connection is GONE!! The digital audio still works (hdtv and
dvds.) But no analog source material works (analog tv recording.) Even
the annoying system bell is busted. Its like my machine it totally
ignoring the asound.conf.

That -L output doesn't look right to me. It used to have pages of
output. This makes me think something in my alsa configuration got hosed.
Please help ... I'm panicking a little,
Jon
