Everything is there. To me, everything looks good. I recall a message on this list or the devel list from Takashi Iwai in such a case where he mentioned a conflict between a couple of settings in amixer, though I don't recall the specifics, vaguely that it might concern IEC958. It is a long shot, but it might help. You should be able to find it on www.gmane.org. Have you tried running aplay to see if it can generate sound. aplay -vv -D plughw:0,0 some.wav Look for complaints in /var/log/messages on boot about sound conflicts or problems. Also look when you try to play to see if something is being written. Are you running pulse? Have you set up sources and sinks for it? Does it have proper access? It acquires alsa when it runs so can block sound if not properly setup. http://www.pulseaudio.org The HD audio seems to create most of the problems lately because of their variability. You can try passing different options to the card during modprobe at startup to see if it helps. If you need help with this, post back. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
