That was always my problem with HDA_Intel as well. I wrote up a asoundrc that set up my two internal PCI cards as devices instead. In addition to the low volume, the onboard Intel audio chip also had way too much trebble in it. In my case, best to skip it altogether, at least on my desktop machines. For my Toshiba Satellite laptop which also uses HDA_Intel, I ran into a different problem--the HDMI port wanted to snag index=0 for alsa. I forgot how I solved that since it's been a few years since I played with that particular computer, but it was quite annoying. -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
