[Bug 66210] Re: Integrated audio occasionally gets index 0
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 48377 *** Confirm this bug. I have disabled the AC97 sound chip on my GigaByte 2004 RZ main board in BIOS, and replace it with a Creative Vibra 128 card. Everything works fine under MS Windows, debian, and previous versions of ubuntu, but unfortunately, except edgy. Ubuntu edgy seems to totally omit the BIOS settings, and load the on board AC97 as the default sound card, which is extremely annoying. No matter what I do, ubuntuedgy recognizes the disabled on board AC97 as default sound device, and don't use my PCI card. This problem really drives me crazy. BTW, there is no alsaconf, so I cannot configure the sound card manually. For short, my PCI sound card works well before, but ubuntu edgy doesn't work in the right way. Please, please fix this critical bug which makes our multi-media programs disabled before releasing ubnutu edgy. Thank you very much. -- Integrated audio occasionally gets index 0 https://launchpad.net/bugs/66210 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 48377 *** Please use the asoundconf(1) python script to set your default card. It is resistant to indices changing, which is the entire reason it was added in Dapper. A quick walkthrough in case you're much too busy to read asoundconf(1)'s man page: 1) asoundconf list returns a list of strings that denote human-friendly sound device identifiers (it's just filtered /proc/asound/cards). 2) asoundconf set-default-card foo where foo is one of the strings from command (1). 3) Restart your ALSA apps. You may also need to log out and back into your graphical environment. ** Changed in: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided = Wishlist Status: Unconfirmed = Confirmed -- Integrated audio occasionally gets index 0 https://launchpad.net/bugs/66210 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 48377 *** The difference between Dapper and Edgy seems to be that Dapper ignores devices disabled in BIOS but Edgy doesn't. When you disable onboard audio device from BIOS, it should be ignored entirely, yet Edgy tries to use it like it is enabled. I'm not a developer but this smells like a kernel bug to me. -- Integrated audio occasionally gets index 0 https://launchpad.net/bugs/66210 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 48377 *** In addition, I believe it is largely thanks to the default lines below # Prevent abnormal drivers from grabbing index 0 in /etc/modprobe.d /alsa-base that this bug does not get much more attention. -- Integrated audio occasionally gets index 0 https://launchpad.net/bugs/66210 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
