I recently updated from SuSE 10.0 to 10.1. Not directly, but soon
after the upgrade (after installing some updates) my sound system
stopped working. "rcalsasound start" does not give an error message, I
can't find entries in /var/log/[warn,messages]. I get
Starting sound driver: usb-audio ens1370 done
You do NOT want to start sound drivers usb-audio. That is not an alsa
driver.
What is the ALSA USB sound driver? usb-audio loads snd-autio-usb module.
I assume you meant snd-usb-audio, since there is no snd-autio-usb
module.(Or snd-audio-usb)
I have no idea what rcalsasound is as Mandriva does not have it.
Its a shortcut for /etc/init.d/alsasound.
my USB sound card is connected, but I get
aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 1: AudioPCI [Ensoniq AudioPCI], device 0: ES1370/1 [ES1370 DAC2/ADC]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: AudioPCI [Ensoniq AudioPCI], device 1: ES1370/2 [ES1370 DAC1]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
So where is the USB sound card left? lsusb lists the card. Where to
look for more debugging infos?
Check that the sound card drivers are actually being installed. Do
modprobe snd-usb-audio
for example
and look at the end of dmesg immediately for error messages.
pchoel:~/dc-done # lsmod | grep snd
Which tells you that no alsa sound modules have been loaded.
pchoel:~/dc-done # modprobe snd-usb-audio
pchoel:~/dc-done # dmesg|tail

And what does lsmod|grep snd say now? And what does ls /proc/asound/cards
say?
I can't see an error message.
Thanks
