Hello All,
I'm having trouble getting my M-Audio Audiophile 2496 to work in Ubuntu
7.10 64-bit. I have used it in the past on a different computer with a
the 32-bit version of the operating system, in fact it was automatically
detected. So I am somewhat perplexed at why it is undetected, and not
working. The only reason I can think of is the difference between 32bit
and 64bit.
Does anybody have any ideas as to the cause and the remedy?
After a fresh install, I pull up "Sound Preferences" in Gnome, and there
are no selectable devices. Also when I test "Sound Events"/"Music and
Movies" I get the message:
"audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample !
gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing"
Issuing the command "aplay -l" returns:
"aplay: device_list:204: no soundcards found..."
If I run lspci -v I can see what I think is the soundcard:
"01:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. Unknown
device 1710 (rev 02)
Subsystem: VIA Technologies Inc. Unknown device d634
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11
I/O ports at 9000 [size=32]
I/O ports at 9400 [size=16]
I/O ports at 9800 [size=16]
I/O ports at 9c00 [size=64]
Capabilities: <access denied>"
When I try to load the ALSA sound module manually ("sudo modprobe
snd-ice1712" it changes nothing.
Also when I try to open alsamixer, I get the message:
"alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device"
I don't know where to go from here, or if I should give up/wait until a
64bit capable driver is released.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Stephen
