Sergi, I'm not using that card but I am using the same chipset. When you bring up envy24control (make sure you're using ALSA 0.9rc7, older versions have problems with envy24control) check the Patchbay/Router tab. If H/W Out 1 (L) and H/W Out 2 (R) are set to Digital Mix L and Digital Mix R respectively you can overdrive the output. Try switching them to PCM Out 1 and PCM Out 2 or cut down/mute some of the Monitor Mixer tab. Jan On Sat, 2003-02-15 at 07:27, Sergi Roig wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm new to the list so... hi to all.
