Shoot me a physical address offlist and I'll UPS the cards your way.
That said, the problem with the audio810 driver is not with the driver, but the
Gnome configuration. You need to tell Gnome you want to use this device. The
best way to do that is with the gstreamer-properties application. Using that
you can select OSS audio output and the specific device to use. That should
solve the problem for you.
Ah, but therein lies the rub - it does not....
I've previously specified audio810#0 and OSSv4 via Gnome's "Multimedia
System Selector", wh/is apparently front end launcher for
gstreamer-properties, as gstreamer-properties from command line launches
same UI with same selections I've previously set. The "Test" button on
this tool produces sound via the onboard card. However, Gnome multimedia
apps such as Totem& Rhythmbox produce no audio playback.
To clarify a bit here - gstreamer-properties is not actually changing
the audio device target. This would seem to be a bug.
In my case /dev/audio default is pointing to the non functional audiohd
driver for the Envy24 based card. The only way I was able to "force"
gnome apps to use audio810 was to rem_dev audiohd. Rhythmbox etc. then
played sound but the quality was horrible. Ditto with flash stuff.
I'll retest this with the 151 stuff later today.
I had this same issue crop up randomly on my oi_148 install. I tried to
use gstreamer-properties to no avail. I ended up going into
gconf-editor, navigating to system -> gstreamer -> 0.10 -> default, and
setting the audiosink, chataudiosink, and musicaudiosink values to
"sunaudiosink" rather than whatever it was set to (I don't remember
now). Gstreamer-based apps started playing sound again after this.
I assumed it was some mistake I made since sound had previously been
working. Maybe this will work for you too?
