hi, i've built a home computer box that has two functions: - it's our media centre, running xbmc (soon as some bugs are worked out) on one screen via tv-out to our analog tv; - it's the kids' computer, running various ubuntu programs and a VM of windows for games on a dell lcd via the onboard nvidia 9300 chipset. all of these functions work individually, under ubuntu jaunty for the moment. I may run this as a multiseat system with multiple x sessions, so i can route the remote ir signal entirely to xbmc; but whether I do this or not, my main problem right now is audio, which right now goes through the onboard Realtek ALC1200 8 channel chipset. I need audio for both functions, but only have one audio card. Now, this card has 8 audio channels, but what i really need is 2 stereo outputs. Is it possible, with pulse, to choose which channels to which to route streams? I don't see anything in pavucontrol that would let me do that, and I can imagine that it's impossible due to constraints from the driver. anyway, if you can help, i appreciate it! thanks, matt -- Matt Price matt.price at utoronto.ca
