Hi! Hardware: - M-Audio Audiophile USB connected via S/PDIF (audio out) with my receiver Software: - Debian/Testing - Self made 2.6.30 kernel - Pulseaudio 0.9.15-2 Problem (short): No digital sound with the standard pulseaudio configuration (USB device detected by HAL) Problem (long): If I start pulseaudio with the standard configuration, I can use the onboard soundcard of my notebook without problems. If I connect the USB sound device, the new device is detected and pavucontrol shows me the new device together with configuration options. But whatever configuration option I choose there is no digital signal to my receiver (I can?t test with analog sound in the moment). In this case I?m using no options to the snd-usb-audio kernel module. According to linux/Documentation/sound/alsa/Audiophile-Usb.txt I tried it with the module options ?device_setup=0x01 nrpacks=1?. Now pavucontrol shows *two* Audiophile USB devices, but none give a digital signal. To make it work I have to edit default.pa and insert the following lines: # onboard load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0 sink_name=output_intern # audiophile usb load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:1,1 sink_name=output_digital set-default-sink output_digital Now I get sound via the digital output, but I have other problems: - pulseaudio won?t start without the connected Audiophile USB device. - pulseaudio stops working and crashes after a time if the USB device is disconnected. So what can I do to configure pulseaudio in a way, that it can play digital output via the USB device but is able to survice the connect/disconnect situation? Thanks for your help! Shade and sweet water!
