[Alsa-user] CROM (getting kmod cdrom to talk with alsa)

2003-01-13 Thread j. roughan
I recently re-installed the ALSA package and can't seem to get my cdrom to produce audio. Last install required no additional effort for the cdrom device. Now, RealPlayer produces audio ok...sort of, but no CDrom. Perhaps I need to give some command to kmod before launching the Gnome cd-player. ?

If you are using a 5.1 source, then it sounds like the relative mix between your left/right pair where the music is, and you center channel where the dialog probably is, is not well balanced. Look at your mixer to see if you can control the 5.1 channels separately. Mark > -Original Message---
