Hello! I just bought a couple of MAudio cards to test out (Revolution 5.1 and Audiophile 2496). I'm trying to test the sound using arecord and aplay, but no matter which format I choose I get the message: aplay: set_params:900: Sample format non available Best regards, Helge Fredriksen

Hi! I suppose the best way to start might be to create some pcm-device in your .asoundrc or asound.conf. There you know exactly how many channels you have. Only other thing _I_ can imagine might help is: startup alsamixer, see how many playback channels you have, look for the setting of

Ubuntu uses multiple module paths in a preferential order under /lib/modules/uname -r/ with kernel/ being the lowest. Type modinfo snd-hda-intel|fgrep filename to find out where it is loading the driver from. The easiest thing to do in this instance is to reconfigure alsa-driver with
