I retested with kernel 3.9.9 on Fedora 19, it's still largely unusable. Optical output works (it didnt back to 3.7+ kernel) but the sound is still mostly corrupted and with a big latency (more than a couple of seconds). Besides, any demanding application (flash) trying to play sound using optical output crash when starting to play sound. (I only get sound from the "test speakers" button from gnome shell sound config app). To me it looks like the driver does not get the info from the card and overwrite on some wrong buffer location, but I'm not expert in sound card. I didn't get any analog output working from the pod or the connectors on the Phoebus. It's probably because of some internal routing, I'll need to test using hda_ tool but I suspect the sound won't be any better (I expect analog to be similar to digital output). I don't know how to improve things, it looks like hda driver need some quircks to support xonar phoebus : it's able to recognize and somehow communicate with the card, but some part of the communication is broken. dmesg still has a lot of message like this : [ 102.551912] azx_single_wait_for_response: 20 callbacks suppressed [ 102.551918] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1033 0000:03:00.0: get_response timeout: IRS=0x1 [ 102.552067] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1061 0000:03:00.0: send_cmd timeout: IRS=0x1, val=0x106a0000 [ 102.553911] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1033 0000:03:00.0: get_response timeout: IRS=0x1 [ 102.554061] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1061 0000:03:00.0: send_cmd timeout: IRS=0x1, val=0x104f0600 [ 102.562891] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1033 0000:03:00.0: get_response timeout: IRS=0x1 [ 102.563041] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1061 0000:03:00.0: send_cmd timeout: IRS=0x1, val=0x106a0000 [ 102.564914] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1033 0000:03:00.0: get_response timeout: IRS=0x1 [ 102.565065] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1061 0000:03:00.0: send_cmd timeout: IRS=0x1, val=0x104a0000 [ 102.574887] ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_intel.c:1033 0000:03:00.0: get_response timeout: IRS=0x1 [ 102.575039] ALSA sound/pc >________________________________ > De : Andreas Allacher <andreas.allacher@xxxxxx> >À : alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >Envoyé le : Dimanche 19 mai 2013 10h30 >Objet : Re: Asus Xonar Phoebus support > > >Just wondering any news when there will be official support for this card >(with good sound quality and multichannel)? > >Regards, > Andreas > > > > > > >------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >AlienVault Unified Security Management (USM) platform delivers complete >security visibility with the essential security capabilities.
