I was somehow under the impression that spdif was merely an alias for the digital device, but I now see I was mistaken. I've been running into some intermittent flakiness with AC3 passthrough. After a reboot, I could play PCM via spdif, but AC3 passthrough didn't work. I unloaded and reloaded the snd_hda_intel module, and AC3 passthrough worked fine, and so did PCM, until after playing PCM I tried to passthrough AC3 again and, again, no sound. Then I did the perfectly obvious thing of setting the IEC958 mixer setting to mute and things have at least so far been stable, toggling between PCM and AC3 content, even following a reboot. (The muting could well be a complete red herring, mind you.) It still feels quite volatile and like it will break at any moment. If anyone has any ideas or advice, I'd be grateful. Meanwhile I'll try to find a way to reliably reproduce the problem. Thanks, Jason. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
