two basic alsa questions

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

 



hello all,

I have a standard pc ( brand new intel quad core), with :

> more /proc/asound/cards
0 [Intel          ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel
                      HDA Intel at 0xf0000000 irq 22
1 [Headset        ]: USB-Audio - Logitech USB Headset
                      Logitech Logitech USB Headset at usb-0000:00:1a.1-1, full speed

I have read and more or less understood the ALSA documentation at
http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Asoundrc

and have come to the following on my new opensuse 11.1 64 bit system, in order to use the USB headset as default :

pcm.dmixer {
type dmix
ipc_key 1025
slave {
pcm "hw:1,0"
period_time 0
period_size 2048        #1024
buffer_size 32768       #4096
                        #periods 128
rate 48000              #44100
}
bindings {
0 0
1 1
}
}

pcm.intern {
type hw
card 0
}

pcm.usb {
type hw
card 1
}

pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmixer"
}

sounds works in several applications, but :
- I cannot get sound from multiple applications at once, not even from two vlc instances, only the first one I actually get to hear. Annoying, since for instance mozilla is often running and will block sound from a newly started vlc. How could I get the dmix working?

- I can choose the built in card, but don't get sound from the hifi speakers the green connector is linked with?

greetings, Danny.
