Hi all! My problem is: sound cards in my system do not redirect bass (low frequencies) to a subwoofer. As a result satellite speakers work in overload, sounds are distorted. 1.There are 2 sound cards in my PC: cat /proc/asound/modules returns 0 snd_hda_intel it is an integrated ALC888 1 snd_emu10k1 it is Creative SBLive!, acoustic system contains 4 satellites, 1 subwoofer (Microlab M800). 2.Used Kubuntu 10.04. I try to resolve this problem: 3. Install blop and cmt by Synaptic. 4. create /etc/asound.conf file and then I paste to it follow text: pcm.upmix_20to51 { type plug slave.pcm lowpass_21to21 slave.channels 3 ttable { 0.0 1 # left channel 1.1 1 # right channel 0.2 0.5 # mix left and right ... 1.2 0.5 # ... channel for subwoofer } } pcm.lowpass_21to21 { type ladspa slave.pcm upmix_21to51 path "/usr/lib/ladspa" channels 3 plugins { 0 { id 1098 # Identity (Audio) (1098/identity_audio) policy duplicate input.bindings.0 "Input"; output.bindings.0 "Output"; } 1 { id 1672 # 4 Pole Low-Pass Filter with Resonance (FCRCIA) (1672/lp4pole_fcrcia_oa) policy none input.bindings.2 "Input"; output.bindings.2 "Output"; input { controls [ 300 2 ] } } } } pcm.upmix_21to51 { type plug slave.pcm surround51 slave.channels 5 ttable { 0.0 1 # front left 1.1 1 # front right 0.2 1 # rear left 1.3 1 # rear right 2.5 1 # subwoofer } hint { show on description "Upmix channel" } } A problem is: when I try to check sound in SystemSettings/Multimedia a message displayed : "The device Upmix channel does not work", and sounds played by snd_hda_intel. So this settings does not applyed to snd_emu10k1. Where is my mistake? I should use Creative SBLive (snd_emu10k1).
