ALSA on Sony VAIO VGN-AR71S

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi!
I've got a new Sony Vaio notebook VGN-AR71S. It has hda-intel sound
with the following codecs:

Codec: SigmaTel CXD9872AKD
Codec: Conexant ID 2c06
Codec: Realtek ALC262

If I set model=vaio-ar, kmix and alsamixer fail to load because of 
multiple names of "Capture Volume" and "Capture Switch".
I did a workaround, renaming in the patch-files to "Capture Volume 1, 2, 3",
and the same with "Capture Switch". The mixer loads successfully, and
I get working microphones for the first time. The internal and external
is working, and I gan switch between both in the mixer. The capture
switch works, too. But I canot loop the mics to the speakers, but capturing
works fine.
If I plug in a headphone, I hear sound, but the internal speaker does not
turn off. The "Headphone" slider is out of any function. Both, internal and
headphones are controlled through "Master".
The optical output is turned off all the time, and there is no switch to
activate it.
Last there are many Sliders without any function. Why is the mic switchable
from int to jack in capturemode, but 2 sliders "Front Mic" and "Mic" in
playbackmode? There are also sliders "CD", "Digital" and "Line" in playback-
mode, and many "Capture" in capturemode.
But by now I am glad, that I got a working microphone. I think, if the main
problem are the multiple names, it could be simply solved by the ALSA
maintainer. I don't really need the SPDIF, but it would be nice, if it would
work, too.
