In 2.1 mode LFE is not actually working at all, so it is removed. With Linux 4.3-rc1+ Mic/Line are hw:%f,0,0 as it should be: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/commit/sound/usb?id=5ee20bc792467d7d612157e0a9962765aa943b08 So now we support both Linux 4.2.x- and 4.3-rc1+ setups. Also in Linux 4.3-rc1 S/PDIF input was detected incorrectly (there is no such hardware input), so it is not present in config. --- .../mixer/profile-sets/sb-omni-surround-5.1.conf | 21 ++++++++++----------- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/modules/alsa/mixer/profile-sets/sb-omni-surround-5.1.conf b/src/modules/alsa/mixer/profile-sets/sb-omni-surround-5.1.conf index 5795067..e534def 100644 --- a/src/modules/alsa/mixer/profile-sets/sb-omni-surround-5.1.conf +++ b/src/modules/alsa/mixer/profile-sets/sb-omni-surround-5.1.conf @@ -15,8 +15,12 @@ ; Creative Sound Blaster Omni Surround 5.1 ; -; This sound card have Mic/Line in at hw:%f,1,0 - this is the main -; difference from default.conf, also unsupported sections removed. +; This sound card have Mic/Line in at hw:%f,1,0 on Linux prior to 4.3-rc1, +; but starting from Linux 4.3-rc1 Mic/Line is at hw:%f,0,0 +; This config supports both cases. +; Also by default there are some non-existing (physically) inputs +; and outputs that are not present here. +; And finally in 2.1 mode LFE is not working, so it is removed also. ; ; See default.conf for an explanation on the directives used here. @@ -24,25 +28,20 @@ auto-profiles = yes [Mapping analog-stereo-output] -device-strings = front:%f hw:%f +device-strings = front:%f channel-map = left,right paths-output = analog-output priority = 10 direction = output +; Linux 4.2.x- have microphone input as device 1 +; While Linux 4.3-rc1+ have microphone input as device 0 [Mapping analog-stereo-input] -device-strings = hw:%f,1,0 +device-strings = hw:%f hw:%f,1,0 paths-input = analog-input-mic analog-input-linein channel-map = left,right direction = input -[Mapping analog-surround-21] -device-strings = surround21:%f -channel-map = front-left,front-right,lfe -paths-output = analog-output -priority = 5 -direction = output - [Mapping analog-surround-41] device-strings = surround41:%f channel-map = front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right,lfe -- 2.5.0
