Hi there,

I tried yesterday to get my new card working, a Creative Audigy SE.



I followed instructions as per

http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Creative+Labs&card=Sound+Blaster+Audigy+SE.&chip=CA0106&module=ca0106

Which says:
-- Card working on ALSA # 1.0.11rc2 or later. --

but no luck: I get sound, but only very ugly hiss distorted sound. So the supposed fix in this driver did not work for me.

I have a DELL Dimension 8250 with onboard audio (which I disabled in the BIOS).
The distro is Debian Sarge (3.1).

I downloaded sources, compiled the drivers.

Recognition etc. by alsaconf went fine, but playing say a .WAV file under Gnome desktop sounded horrible.

I played around a bit with the mixer, getting slightly better results, but it is still very distorted.

It could be that after the configure;..make install the new (freshly compiled) alsa drivers were not used;
I use a Debian distro so maybe I had to do somehing special here?
Is there a way to confirm this?

Any one knows about a debian package (say in experimental) containing the latest ALSA code?


Kind regards,

Indra Polak
