Hi! I bought some cheap ass sound card yesterday to use in my HTPC system. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to get it to output any sound. The card is labeled "PC Line" but is a C-Media CM8738, i.e. snd_cmipci. There are no error messages whatsoever, just no audio out. The problem only seems to affect PCM as I did some tests with a mic that worked just fine. The mixer controls for mic playback and capture both work and I get valid data when recording. PCM eats data at a reasonable pace, but no sound it sent out. Also, no data is generated when I set capture to PCM and try to loop stuff. I also notice two other effects, but I do not know if they're relevant. First, the mixer setting "IEC958 In Monitor" cannot be turned off. Second, when "IEC958 Output" is activated, mic playback is activated unconditionally. Any help appreciated.
