[Alsa-user] Separate outputs stereo management.
Hi, I'm trying to set up my sound installation on my computer. I've got one HDA-Intel 7.1 audio device. I have found on Alsa Wiki the Squisher's .asourndrc file which permit to use on audio device as two. I want sound goes to my headphone or goes to HiFi. Actually, squisher's .asoundrc works fine but it can not duplicate channel when play mono stream, so mono goes only on left channel. Is it possible to duplicate automatically the channel when playiing mono stream ? Whithout this .asoundrc, the device automatically duplicate mono stream. But it sends audio output on all output... I tried the LADSPA mono to stereo plugin (1406) but it does not duplicate the stream. Please, can someone help me ?.. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
