Re: [qubes-users] Re: qrexec demon fails to load any VM when I attach any device
OK, we've made progress. However, I'm not sure why this change has happened. Now aplay -l sees two audio devices - one built-in, one HDMI. Dom[0] volume control now sees a 'built in audio Analog Stereo' (hardware) and 'Simultaneous output to built-in Audio' (virtual?). When sound is playing , the volume bars fluctuate as expected, but still no sound coming out. - A On Sunday, 4 March 2018 18:43:51 UTC-8, awokd wrote: > On Mon, March 5, 2018 2:34 am, Allen Larocque wrote: > > > > 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High > > Definition Audio Controller (rev 04) > > > Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel > > Kernel modules: snd_hda_intel > > Looks like it loaded fine.

[qubes-users] Re: qrexec demon fails to load any VM when I attach any device
Hi Yuraeitha, Thanks for your continued help! Ah, I think there is a misunderstanding: there is no USB soundcard as far as I understand it; only what is on the mainboard. So there should only be one soundcard. I am currently running a sys-usb VM however! Under DOM0 pauvaudio volume control, under the 'output devices' tab, there is no 'hardware' devices listed, only the 'simultaneous output' virtual device. The virtual device however is still showing fluctuating volume bar, so it's 'hearing' things correctly. Strangely too, now my headphones don't seem to work (they did previously).

Thanks for the help. The intel audio pci device is indeed listed in the qvm-pci list, and the pulseaudio manager is 'connected', However, under 'devices' there's nothing about the intel device - just 'combined monitor' as the source On Tuesday, 27 February 2018 10:09:37 UTC-8, Yuraeitha wrote: > On Tuesday, February 27, 2018 at 6:58:11 PM UTC+1, Allen Larocque wrote: > > Thanks Yuraeitha for the thoughtful reply! > > > > Hm.

[qubes-users] Re: qrexec demon fails to load any VM when I attach any device
Thanks Yuraeitha for the thoughtful reply! Hm. It doesn't seem to work in the other templates. I think it is a driver issue. I've tried volume etc.; and switching through the pulseaudio menus shows only 'simultaneous output' devices (which DO have actively fluctuating 'volume bars' when playback is happening!). Under 'config' there is 'no sound cards available for configuration'. I've been trying some things and let me try to clarify: 'lspci' lists '00:1b:0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Serices/c210 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev04)' I interpret that as the audio card being on the chipset (hence 'plugged in' automatically). 'aplay -l' however lists "no soundcards found". So alsa doesn't see it? Alsa is a deeper level than pulseaudio generally, right? So if alsa doesn't see it then it makes sense that pulseaudio doesn't either. So: how to get alsa/pulseaudio to see it?

[qubes-users] qrexec demon fails to load any VM when I attach any device
Hi Qubes, First time installer here, trying to get my sound to work. Strangely, speakers are broken, but headphones work fine. Anytime I move my sound device from 'available' to 'selected' in a given VM, the VM won't load and I get the 'qeexec demon' error. Same thing when I move various other devices over (tested with USB ones). I should need the audio device moved over in order for it to work in a given VM, right? Any thoughts? Running 3.2 on a Zenbook UX31A. Thanks, Allen -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
