[Alsa-user] VIA 8233 in eMachines M6811

2006-06-18 Thread Simon
I've been having problems with certain software's (openal, artsd) ALSA output being transposed up ~1 tone. Today I figured out that it had to do with the dxs support, and eventually settled on dxs_support=5, which works perfectly. However, I think it's likely that the issue with transposition is a bug related to resampling of output to 48000, since it went away when dxs_support was set to 1,2, or 5 (I didn't try 4, and I really don't know what VRA is). So, two things:
1 - my soundcard works best with dxs_support=5, in my opinion2 - there are wierd issues either with resampling, or with the way openal and artsd output to alsa.Another issue is that while trying to fix the problem, I played with the rate plugin in /etc/asound.conf, and it didn't work at all with any of the offending apps. However, as I'm writing this, I just briefly tested the rate plugin with amarok-xine, and it works fine with 
slave.rate at both 44100 and 48000, assuming I didn't make a mistake configuring it.lspci -v00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50)

[Alsa-user] Creative Audigy Platinum - problems with the mixer

2006-06-18 Thread Lukas Zapletal
Hello there!

I have serious problem with my Audigy Platinum card. The alsamixer
shows just few output channels: Line, CD, Phone, PC Speaker, Aux,
Digital Out, External Amp.

But my card have much more outputs, Aux 2, Line in 2, SPIDF in and out
and headphones output (on the front panel). I need to get my
headphones output working - it doesnt play :-(

How to configure this? Alsa finds this card as Audigy 1 (SB0090).

Thanks in advance

Probably not - softvol can only attenuate, it cannot amplify signals.

If you have the volume at 100% it should be as loud as the hardware ios
capable of.  Maybe there is a software volume control or compressor in
MythTV that can do this?  I know mplayer has one.

What sound card?

Can you attach the output of amixer?

Did you try scrolling all the way to the right?

Please post the output of amixer.

Also the Audigy does not have a separate control for the headphones -
it's controlled by Master (and the knob on the breakout box).

[Alsa-user] Terrible Echo With Via VT8237 Chipset, CVS (Recent) ALSA 2.6.17 Kernel

2006-06-18 Thread T.P. Reitzel
I first mentioned this echo problem while experimenting with the 
2.6.16.18 kernel. The problem is even worse now. Audio is totally 
unusable. Although my PC hasn't hardlocked yet, it just might at some 
point in the future. I simply changed from the 2.6.16.1 kernel which 
works fine with ALSA to the 2.6.17 kernel which works terribly with ALSA 
and the Via VT8237 chipset. You ought to hear this sucker sing! The echo 
is horrendous.

[Alsa-user] Terrible Echo With Via VT8237 Chipset, CVS (Recent) ALSA 2.6.17 Kernel

2006-06-18 Thread T.P. Reitzel
Lee -

I don't know if I can explain it much better, but here's another 
attempt. ANY sound just echoes for several seconds almost like the 
problem is due to conflicting interrupts. If I play a brief tone ( 1 
sec.), the tone will just echo for several seconds. Imagine listening to 
a longer segment of audio in this manner. The result is just a 
continuous jumble of echoes. Other users of similar hardware must be 
experiencing the same problem. I haven't done ANYTHING other than 
upgrade from the 2.6.16.1 kernel to the 2.6.17 kernel with a slightly 
newer (Hg) version of ALSA. Remember, this problem has been worsening 
throughout the life cyle of the 2.6.16.x kernels. HTH

 I think you are hitting a known bug that's caused not by ALSA but by a
 buggy PCI quirk for VIA chipsets.  It's a regression introduced during
 the 2.6.16.x series.  It has been discussed on LKML and should be fixed
 in the first 2.6.17 stable release.

   problem is due to conflicting interrupts. If I play a brief tone ( 1 
   sec.), the tone will just echo for several seconds. Imagine listening to 
   a longer segment of audio in this manner. The result is just a 
   continuous jumble of echoes. Other users of similar hardware must be 
   experiencing the same problem. I haven't done ANYTHING other than 
   upgrade from the 2.6.16.1 kernel to the 2.6.17 kernel with a slightly

  I think you are hitting a known bug that's caused not by ALSA but by a
  buggy PCI quirk for VIA chipsets.  It's a regression introduced during
  the 2.6.16.x series.  It has been discussed on LKML and should be fixed
  in the first 2.6.17 stable release.

I am not referring to stable in the conventional sense.  -stable in
kernel development has a specific meaning - it refers to the bugfixes
applied to the last kernel release.

That's the codec, I wanted to know the sound chipset.  What driver is

  Hi all,
 
  Is it possible to configure ALSA through asoundrc to pre-amp (increase
  volume) the master output signal?
 
 
  Probably not - softvol can only attenuate, it cannot amplify signals.
 
 
 I was afraid you say that...

All I can think of is try muting some unused controls, that may have an
effect.

I myself have been having trouble accessing my the host in the last hour or so
- service unavailable, authentication errors along with service.

This problem goes away by itself.

Anyway, they are asking to fill a form from your, not somebody else's, IP 
address,
and the http://win.mail.ru/cgi-bin/support_bl?ip=216.158.38.3 page has an 
English
form to be filled - see English version in the lower half of the page.

I once filled the form to have work IP address removed, they did it.

[Alsa-user] monaural ALSA mixes

2006-06-18 Thread Chris Fisichella
Why does aplay take a sound, such as Front_Right.wav and play it over 
both speakers?

for example:

#cd /usr/share/sounds/asla
#aplay Front_Right.wav

- The sound comes out both the speakers I have connected to my card.

Whereas speaker-test can keep the speakers separate:

#speaker-test -c6 -tsine -f800

- this produces a fuzz sound, but it will cycle through all five 
channels of my sound card. I am currently listening to two of them 
and the sound is on one speaker, and then the other.

I have a SoundBlaster Live! 24-bit 7.1 card.
the driver is snd-ca0106

I compiled ALSA 1.0.9rc4 (driver, lib, util, but not the tools)
My kernel is 2.6.8-2.386

Any help would be appreciated.

Because this is what most users expect to happen when they play a
mono .wav file.

What problem are you trying to solve?
