The Subject of my preceding message was a blunder. System board and PCI sound hardware
From: pe...@easthope.ca Date: Thu, 29 Jul 2021 20:20:16 -0700 > Got sound from the Intel device on the system board. Oddly enough > there was a plastic cover over the sockets on the chassis back. Pried > it off to plug the speaker jack. Also disconnected the front panel socket cable from the PCI sound card and connected it to the connector marked "FP AUD" on the system board. Now set AUDIODEV=plughw:CARD=ICH5,DEV=0 ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav and set AUDIODEV=plughw:CARD=ICH5,DEV=0 ; play /home/peter/m08.WAV deliver sound to the green sockets, one on the back of the chassis and one on the front. No success getting sound from the PCI sound card. Ie. set AUDIODEV=default:CARD=Live ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav set AUDIODEV=sysdefault:CARD=Live ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav set AUDIODEV=rear:CARD=Live,DEV=0 ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav give silence. USB sound adapters No sound from commands such as these. set AUDIODEV=default:CARD=Set ; aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav set AUDIODEV=default:CARD=Set ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav set AUDIODEV=sysdefault:CARD=Set ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav set AUDIODEV=surround71:CARD=Set,DEV=0 ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav set AUDIODEV=dmix:CARD=Set,DEV=0 ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav set AUDIODEV=usbstream:CARD=U0x46d0x807 ; play /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Noise.wav Nevertheless the USB adapter delivers the linphone ring. The USB hardware works. No clue why aplay and play commands don't work for the USB hardware. Conclusions Receive audio messages via the sound hardware on the system board. Ignore the PCI sound card. USB is a question. Regards, ... P. -- 48.7693 N 123.3053 W tel: +1 604 670 0140
