Hello, I am having a problem getting an ice1724 card to work. This card was sold by the german Musicstore in Cologne, a card named Fame MS 2x2, with a chipset ice1724 my lspci says about this card: 00:08.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. VT1720/24 [Envy24PT/HT] PCI Multi-Channel Audio Controller (rev 01) I have two cards in my system, according to cat /proc/asound 0 [CMI8738 ]: CMI8738-MC6 - C-Media CMI8738 C-Media CMI8738 (model 55) at 0xe800, irq 17 1 [ICE1724 ]: ICE1724 - ICEnsemble ICE1724 ICEnsemble ICE1724 at 0xe000, irq 19 The cmedia cards works fine with jackd. However, when I start jackd using the second card, jack starts up, but then gives me roughly every 30 seconds the following message: ALSA: poll time out, polled for 31999267 usecs JackAudioDriver::ProcessAsync: read error, skip cycle Then, when I start a simple jack client, like hydrogen, it does not connect automatically with the system output, as it does when I use my cmedia card. I even cannot connect the ports manually in qjackctl, which functions without problems using the cmedia card. I also cannot unmute my via1724 card using alsamixer, neither with alsamixer-gui. I also give you the output of amixer for both cards: The cmedia card: Simple mixer control 'Master',0 Capabilities: pvolume Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Mono: Front Left: Playback 31 [100%] Front Right: Playback 31 [100%] Simple mixer control '3D Control - Switch',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined cswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Front Left: Playback 31 [100%] [on] Capture [off] Front Right: Playback 31 [100%] [on] Capture [off] Simple mixer control 'Synth',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined cswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Front Left: Playback 31 [100%] [on] Capture [off] Front Right: Playback 31 [100%] [on] Capture [off] Simple mixer control 'Line',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch cswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Front Left: Playback 31 [100%] [off] Capture [off] Front Right: Playback 31 [100%] [off] Capture [off] Simple mixer control 'Line-In Mode',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'Line-In' 'Rear Output' 'Bass Output' Item0: 'Line-In' Simple mixer control 'CD',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch cswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Front Left: Playback 31 [100%] [off] Capture [off] Front Right: Playback 31 [100%] [off] Capture [off] Simple mixer control 'Mic',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined cvolume cvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined cswitch cswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 31 Capture 0 - 7 Mono: Playback 31 [100%] [off] Capture 7 [100%] [off] Simple mixer control 'Mic Boost',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined cswitch cswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Capture [off] Simple mixer control 'Mic-In Mode',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'Mic-In' 'Center/LFE Output' Item0: 'Center/LFE Output' Simple mixer control 'Phone',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 7 Mono: Playback 7 [100%] [off] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 5V',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [on] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 Copyright',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 In Monitor',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 In Phase Inverse',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 In Select',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 In Valid',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 Loop',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'IEC958 Output',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control 'PC Speaker',0 Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Limits: Playback 0 - 3 Mono: Playback 3 [100%] [on] Simple mixer control 'Aux',0 Capabilities: pvolume pswitch cswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Playback 0 - 15 Front Left: Playback 15 [100%] [off] Capture [off] Front Right: Playback 15 [100%] [off] Capture [off] Simple mixer control 'Four Channel Mode',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [on] and for the via1724 card: Simple mixer control 'Multi Track Internal Clock',0 Capabilities: enum Items: '8000' '9600' '11025' '12000' '16000' '22050' '24000' '32000' '44100' '48000' 'IEC958 Input' Item0: 'IEC958 Input' Simple mixer control 'Multi Track Peak',0 Capabilities: volume Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right - Rear Left - Rear Right - Front Center - Woofer - Side Left - Side Right - Rear Center - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ?

I have to say that I am not yet well aquainted with amixer.
