That's the way I see it also. I don't want to capture your thread for something I want to know, so I started a new one. The new ".asoundrc" thread: Don't consider this as the fiftieth request regarding the RME issue I'm experiencing, I only want to know, if there definitively never is the need for an .asoundrc or any other config file, as long as just a single card should do it's job, or there aren't special needs, as the one Philipp has got. "Neither .asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf is normally required. You should be able to play and record sound without either (assuming your mic and speakers are hooked up properly). If your system won't work without one, and you are running the most current version of ALSA, you probably should file a bug report." - http://alsa.opensrc.org/Asoundrc There _never_ is the need for an .asoundrc to get a single sound card working? As already mentioned a few times on this list, I never got ADAT 3 to 8 working for my HDSPe AIO. All the capture and playback ports [1] are also shown by qjackctl, but they don't provide an audio signal. Such an issue is unrelated to a missing .asoundrc or another configuration file (assumed mixer settings are correct ;)?
