Thanks for these hints. Your are the first person except the developers of the driver who tells me that an RME card is working as expected, so new hope is risig..... I am using a 9636 so I have to use the rme9652driver and I assume that you are using the hdsp driver for your card. I have tried some different versions of .asoundrc, beginning with this one http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/asoundrc.php?module=rme9652, http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=TwoCardsAsOne http://interactive.linuxjournal.com/article/8234 and some other .asoundrc files, assuming, that the underlying concept of ttable is also valid for the rme card. Wherever needed I deleted the configurations for more that one card. After that I tried to play sounds via aplay -D DEVICENAME WAVE File. Whatever configuration I used the sound only was given out via the first stereo pair. No error was thrown, aplay states always that is was playing the file .Dmix configurations weren't working at all. Here is one sample I tried: pcm.hw0 { type hw card 0 device 0 # brauche ich das device? } pcm.output1 { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.0 1 # studio monitor front left...Delta 1 ttable.0.1 1 # studio monitor front right...Delta 2 } pcm.output2 { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.2 1 # studio monitor rear left...Delta 3 ttable.0.3 1 # studio monitor rear right...Delta 4 } pcm.output3 { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.4 1 # oscilloscope 1...Delta 5 ttable.0.5 1 # oscilloscope 2...Delta 6 } pcm.output4 { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.6 1 # headphone 1...Delta 7 ttable.0.7 1 # headphone 2...Delta 8 } pcm.hw0_spdif { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.8 1 # S/PDIF left...Delta 9 ttable.1.9 1 # S/PDIF right...Delta 10 } pcm.mon_mix { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.10 1 # digital mix left ttable.1.11 1 # digital mix right } pcm.multi_send { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.0 1 # studio monitor front left...Delta 1 ttable.0.1 1 # studio monitor front right...Delta 2 ttable.0.4 1 # oscilloscope 1...Delta 5 ttable.0.5 1 # oscilloscope 2...Delta 6 ttable.0.6 1 # headphone 1...Delta 7 ttable.0.7 1 # headphone 2...Delta 8 } pcm.quad { type plug slave.pcm hw0 ttable.0.0 1 # studio monitor front left...Delta 1 ttable.0.1 1 # studio monitor front right...Delta 2 ttable.0.2 1 # studio monitor rear left...Delta 3 ttable.0.3 1 # studio monitor rear right...Delta 4 } pcm.hwout { type plug slave.pcm hw0 } I have tried that with Ubuntu 6.0.6 and alsa 1.0.10, as well as with a Knoppix 5.0 Live DVD and alsa 1.0.11. After getting in contact with Paul Davis - who was very responsive - thanks again, I tried to get jackd up and running, starting with the following .asoundrc: pcm.jackplug { type plug slave { pcm "jack" } } pcm.jack { type jack playback_ports { 0 alsa_pcm:playback_1 1 alsa_pcm:playback_2 } capture_ports { 0 alsa_pcm:capture_1 1 alsa_pcm:capture_2 } } But without luck. Would it be possible that you post your configurations for alsa and jackd, so that I can try out that with my hammerfall light? Basically, what would be perfect from my point of view is a possibility to enhance the RME driver in a way that the devices of the soundcard are directly accessible like it is possible for a huge set of 'consumer' soundcards, but I would be happy if there is a way or a set of config files that enables me to play sounds on the channels I want with whatever player...
