Hi, I have an older EchoAudio Mia soundcard, which is working fairly well. However, I am experiencing one problem, which I am sure a more experienced alsa user can explain. My soundcard outputs only 2 channels (stereo). Everything sounds fairly well; however, some parts of some songs sound very quiet. It is like I am listening to only center or the rear channels of surround sound, like I am not getting all the channels mixed down to stereo. Also, the bass seems a little too strong. FWIW, if I listen to the same song on Windows XP (dual-boot) with the same player (Songbird), I don't have this problem. So, I don't think it's a hardware problem. Any suggestions to make sure that all sound is being mixed down to 2 channels? I am guessing that I need to put something in my .asoundrc file, but I don't know what. Thanks!
