Hi all, I have just bought a new VIA Epia SN10000EG board which has a "VIA High Definition Audio Controller": 80:01.0 Audio device: VIA Technologies, Inc. VIA High Definition Audio Controller Subsystem: VIA Technologies, Inc. VIA High Definition Audio Controller Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 23 Memory at febfc000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit- Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [70] Express Unknown type IRQ 0 I'm using Debian GNU/Linux unstable on the box with the latest 2.6.23 kernel. The following ALSA modules are automatically loaded when ALSA starts up (or when I do "modprobe snd_hda_intel" by hand): snd_hda_intel 271388 0 snd_pcm_oss 38048 0 snd_pcm 70088 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss 14016 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_seq_dummy 2628 0 snd_seq_oss 28992 0 snd_seq_midi 5920 0 snd_rawmidi 19232 1 snd_seq_midi snd_seq_midi_event 6208 2 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi snd_seq 45840 6 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event snd_timer 19268 2 snd_pcm,snd_seq snd_seq_device 6348 5 snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq snd 44068 9 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss,snd_pcm,snd_mixer_oss,snd_seq_oss,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device soundcore 6112 1 snd snd_page_alloc 7560 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm Sound "kind of" works. That is, as long as I keep both channels of "Line" and the left channel of "Mic" muted, then I can listen to sound and the sound indeed does sound good. However as soon as I unmute either channel of "Line" or the left channel of "Mic", I get a high pitched noise on the Line Out jacket. I already tried putting things like module=3stack and position_fix=1 in the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base config file, but it didn't help (although I didn't follow a strategy but was merely trying out the options). Any ideas how to get rid of that high pitched noise? And a second question: I do not get a system beep although I have CONFIG_INPUT_PCSPKR=y in the kernel config. What could be wrong here? BTW: If you need more information, just ask and I'll post whatever information is necessary.
