Just downloaded and looked at the manual for the unit. The outputs are auto patched on power up but the inputs are not, the driver is expected to do that It seems. The unit is listed on the alsa page as something that should work or is known... so it is a matter of figuring it out. It seems that there are no adc or dac volume controls even with the windows drivers. What may be confusing is that the internal card includes an ac97 set of things and that does have volume controls. So, The volume controls for the inputs and outputs are preset full up (0db if you like). The outputs are connected by default, the inputs are not. Either envy24control/mudita or alsa should show the patches to be connected somewhere. as it appears that the ice1712 driver does not do this for you. Any input that is connected _should_ show the light on the external box. So the next question would be... what tabs are there in mudita with this device? As an interesting side note, the manual says what we have all found out with the ice1712 units and irqs. "It should be unshared if possible, because the DSP24 is a busmaster device ... otherwise you might get performance problems." -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
