Hello, I am trying to make an .asoundrc that would give me iec958 output on my system while also supporting dmix. Without dmix, I get iec958 output with the following .asoundrc : pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm iec958 } But I do need dmix, and I can't make it work. Try 1: pcm.!default { type dmix slave.pcm iec958 } Does not work, and I get the error message : ALSA lib pcm_direct.c:1655:(snd1_pcm_direct_parse_open_conf) Unique IPC key is not defined Try 2: pcm.iecmix { type dmix slave.pcm iec958 } pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm iecmix } Same result - does not work, same error message. Try 3: pcm.iecplug { type plug slave.pcm iec958 } pcm.!default { type dmix slave.pcm iecplug } Still same result! Please help... P.S. Kernel 2.6.30. Apparently, SPDIF output works by default when I do not have this analog TV card in (saa7134), but does not when I do have it. Funnily enough I can not get any meaningful sound from the saa7134 alsa device. -- Yours, Mikhail Ramendik ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
