The driver gets loaded by hdsploader. hdspmixer sets mixer defaults useful for hearing something, but you can do that non-interactively using amixer. I have a hdspreset script looking like #!/bin/sh amixer -c 1 cset "iface=CARD,name=Precise Pointer" 1 # Inputs to HDSP Mixer # ======================================================================== # Multiface analogue inputs 1-8 = amixer source channels 0-7 # Multiface ADAT inputs 1-8 = amixer source channels 16-23 # Multiface SPDIF input = amixer source channels 24-25 # alsa_pcm:playback_1-26 = amixer source channels 26-51 # # Outputs from HDSP Mixer # ======================================================================== # Multiface analogue outputs 1-8 = amixer destination channels 0-7 # Multiface ADAT outputs 1-8 = amixer destination channels 16-23 # Multiface SPDIF output = amixer destination channels 24-25 # Multiface line (headphone) output = amixer destination channels 26-27 # # Mapping between Multiface inputs and alsa_pcm:capture channels # ======================================================================== # Multiface analogue inputs 1-8 = capture_1-8 # Multiface ADAT inputs 1-8 = capture_9-16 # Multiface SPDIF input = capture_17-18 amixer -c 1 cset numid=5 26,0,65535 amixer -c 1 cset numid=5 27,1,65535 That would appear to put through the playback outputs 1 and 2 to analog outputs 1 and 2. Don't ask me about the Precise Pointer thing: at some point of time jackd and pulseaudio needed _different_ settings in order to work properly. Don't remember which was which or whether this is still the case. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
