Dear all, The problem is on a computer with an HDA Intel sound card, Intel G45 DEVCTG chip and appears will all version s of the kernel. Running e.g. beep 440 produces a beep whose audible frequency is very low, definitely not 440 Hz. However, it is worth notiing that grub is able to produce a beep of the right frequency at boot time. Can this problem be fixed ? Should you need any additional bit of information or testing, please ask. Many thanks in advance for your help, Shérab. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
