Hi, I really want pulseaudio badly and since it doesn't work very good with OSS output, I decided to switch to ALSA. However, I'm running into some problems with ALSA. My dxr3 (em8300) card seems to be detected by ALSA (/proc/asound/cards lists it too): [root@server ~]# aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: I82801BAICH2 [Intel 82801BA-ICH2], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel 82801BA-ICH2] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: EM8300 [Sigma Designs' EM8300], device 0: EM8300/0 [EM8300 DAC] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 1: EM8300 [Sigma Designs' EM8300], device 1: EM8300/1 [EM8300 IEC958] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 But for some reason it won't play anything: [root@server ~]# alsaplayer --verbose -o alsa -d hw:1,0 Strong.mp3 AlsaPlayer 0.99.80 (C) 1999-2004 Andy Lo A Foe <andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and others.

Here's a link to tsalsa output: http://nopaste.com/p/a0NYa75gW The module was loaded with options em8300 dicom_fix=1 dicom_control=1 dicom_other_pal=1 audio_driver=alsa. I'm running em8300-0.16.4-rc1 - Jan _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
