Dear list, I am currently trying to set up an RME multiface under Linux. I am running a 2.6.9 kernel with ACPI patches, the Nitro 4/Con Kolivas patches, and the latest LSM module. I am running ALSA 1.0.8rc1 compiled as modules from Source. Most things work well. I have Jack running in realtime with very few Xruns. PD and Audacity also work OK so far as I can tell. I have three problems: 1/ The no audio can be heard from the Multiface unless the HDSPmixer app has been opened once. 2/ The inputs meters on the HDSPmixer are constantly showing around -7dB even though there is no input. 3/ There are constant clicks when playing from DVD, regardless of whether I use Xine or Mplayer, OSS or ALSA. Playback is fine if I use the internal Intel sound card. Any help would be much appreciated. Regards, Jamie
