Okay... it's hard to force it, so next time something like that happens, I will get the informations you asked for. (I already attached several infos to my last mail) Is there something else I can do or provide you with in the meantime...? > Also, check the kernel messages when it hangs.

Unfortunately every sound I play back through spdif (non-ac3) seems overamplified even if I lower the iec958 volume below -45db. I cannot get that right. Also in order to correctly set the front volume, I have to adjust the headphone volume as well. If I don't, the front sounds dull somehow. Also tried other variants but usually one of the speakers isn't working or stuff like that. Currently I am using 6stack-dig with the problems outlined in my earlier mail. Unfortunately neither with the auto setting, nor with 6stack-dig, I am able to switch the output mode (6 channel, 2 channel, ...). It's always 6 channels and whatever I play back is routed to every speaker. :-( 2] position_fix I don't seem to have any luck with that one. Doesn't solve any problems... with setting at 3, things are even worse with more distortions. So... I could live with the occasional spdif hang but is there something I can do about those distortions I hear with spdif and non-ac3 stuff played back? I can even hear it when nothing is being played back. Interestingly, the distortions are gone when ever I have played back something ac3 (passthrough) until I play back something non-ac3. Thanks again, matthew. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
