Hello fellow alsa users! I have a M-Media CM8768 based PCI soundcard. It has 8 channels. On this card there are jacks for all 8 speakers in addition to line in and mic. I am having problems getting all the channels to work correctly. If I do: speaker-test -D surround71 -c8 -twav all channels work - center front , sides L/R, rear L/R and center rear -- except the front left and right also, if i do speaker-test -D surround51 -c6 -twav the selected channels work fine -- except the front left and right. but if i do speaker-test -D front -c2 -twav the front speakers work (only) aplay -D surround51 -c6 A6channelfile.wav yields the same results. I do not have an .asoundrc file (i think that may be needed? to route thees channels?) Also I had a ensoniq card with 4 channels that worked fine before I got this one. All I really need is 5.1 for now.. I was up till 4:00AM with this I hope some one can help :) Below is gobs of info on my setup. Let me know if you need more. Thanks in advance Stan __________________________________________________________ ALSA Audio Debug v0.1.0 - Tue Feb 24 16:08:07 EST 2009 http://alsa.opensrc.org/aadebug http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt Kernel ---------------------------------------------------- Linux lasercon 2.6.23.1lx #1 Tue Nov 25 00:31:47 EST 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Loaded Modules -------------------------------------------- snd_seq_midi 6016 0 snd_cmipci 29216 1 snd_seq_dummy 2692 0 snd_seq_oss 25856 0 snd_seq_midi_event 5760 2 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_oss snd_seq 40176 6 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi_event snd_pcm_oss 33280 0 snd_mixer_oss 12672 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 58376 2 snd_cmipci,snd_pcm_oss snd_page_alloc 7304 1 snd_pcm snd_opl3_lib 7808 1 snd_cmipci snd_timer 16516 3 snd_seq,snd_pcm,snd_opl3_lib snd_hwdep 6148 1 snd_opl3_lib snd_mpu401_uart 6144 1 snd_cmipci snd_rawmidi 17408 2 snd_seq_midi,snd_mpu401_uart snd_seq_device 6028 6 snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_opl3_lib,snd_rawmidi snd 38916 14 snd_cmipci,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_opl3_lib,snd_timer,snd_hwdep,snd_mpu401_uart,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device Modprobe Conf --------------------------------------------- options snd-ens1371 index=0 options snd-cmipci index=0 alias snd-card-0 snd-cmipci options snd-card-0 index=0 Proc Asound ----------------------------------------------- Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.15 (Tue Oct 23 06:09:18 2007 UTC). 0 [CMI8768 ]: CMI8738-MC8 -
