I've installed a Creative SB Audigy2 ZS sound card in my desktop system. The card uses an EMU10K2 chip, supported by the emu10k1 kernel driver. This card has 3 line outputs on the back. I would like to be able to direct sound using ALSA devices to at least 2 of these 3 outputs. On other, older cards I could do this by directing sound to alsa devices hw:0,0 and hw:0,1 in my .asoundrc but this doesn't work for this card.
Basically, I need to direct high quality audio to an external amp and a couple of JBL studio control room monitors, and event sounds from the computer to the el cheapo (but adequate) speakers mounted in my monitor. Sending an audio signal to hw:0,0 gets the sound to the 1st audio output on the card with all the bells and whistles (e.g. tone control) available. No problems there :-) How can I set up my /etc/modules.d/alsa or ~/.asoundrc file to direct an audio input stream to the 2nd or 3rd audio output on the card? I don't need much control over this audio stream. Volume control would be nice, but I can pretty much set it and leave it in the built-in amp in the monitor which drives the speakers. Any other sources of information to which someone could refer me would be appreciated. -- Lindsay Haisley | "Fighting against human | PGP public key FMP Computer Services | creativity is like | available at 512-259-1190 | trying to eradicate | <http://pubkeys.fmp.com> http://www.fmp.com | dandelions" | | (Pamela Jones) | -- [email protected] mailing list
