[Bug 710133] Re: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound
Thank you for reporting this bug to Ubuntu. Ubuntu 10.10 (maverick) reached end-of-life on April 10, 2012. See this document for currently supported Ubuntu releases: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases We appreciate that this bug may be old and you might not be interested in discussing it any more. But if you are then please upgrade to the latest Ubuntu version and re-test. ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/710133 Title: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/710133/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ok, so your laptop has a yellow jack, but as you can see in the file https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/710133/+attachment/1817112/+files/Card0.Codecs.codec.0.txt you posted, nowhere does it say Color = yellow, so linux has no way of knowing that you have a yellow jack. It will take both time and patience to figure that out manually, but it's possible. I'm not sure I have that time at the moment. The windows driver automatically detects if something is plugged to the jacks and based on the order it start to use it. That would be ideal, but unfortunately Linux does not have that functionality yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/710133 Title: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 710133] Re: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound
As I have mentioned, this is an MSI GX 720 laptop. By default it is equipped with 4.1 internal sound speakers. There are four jacks at the right side. I think, by reading the manual, that is the default setup and the 4 jacks can be used for 5.1 and 7.1 sound as well. The windows driver automatically detects if something is plugged to the jacks and based on the order it start to use it. The manual gives the following order (from left to right order): 1 - green jack plug - FR/FL 2 - empty - N/A 3 - black jack plug - RR/RL 4 - yellow jack plug - SUB/CEN It is OK, that did not use 5.1 by default, but why the 4.1 is not detected? Big question. I might need to update the BIOS to get it. (I would hate to do that.) By the way, it was correctly detected before 9.10. Since that, I always had a problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/710133 Title: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I don't know much about either Microsoft's and/or Realtek's drivers for that hardware in Windows Vista, so I don't know how many workarounds that has been coded into that driver. What I know is that the auto- parser in Linux bases itself on the above pin config information, and if that information is wrong, we've got to figure out what it should be instead, before we can fix the Linux driver. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/710133 Title: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi David, Might be the symptom makes this conclusion in your mind, but I need to disagree. The laptop has been set up for dual boot and the other OS (Windows Vista) handles it correctly with its driver. It is an ubuntu (might be a driver) problem. But without driver the hardware recognition and capability detection of the sound card must be correct, isn't it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/710133 Title: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

BIOS has - likely incorrectly - stated that you only have one line-out jack. Here's what BIOS says you have: Pin Default 0x01214410: [Jack] HP Out at Ext Rear Pin Default 0x99130120: [Fixed] Speaker at Int ATAPI Pin Default 0x01012050: [Jack] Line Out at Ext Rear Pin Default 0x01a19860: [Jack] Mic at Ext Rear Pin Default 0x99a30961: [Fixed] Mic at Int ATAPI Pin Default 0x0181306f: [Jack] Line In at Ext Rear Pin Default 0x99130130: [Fixed] Speaker at Int ATAPI Pin Default 0x01454140: [Jack] SPDIF Out at Ext Rear We need to figure out what you really have and to where they are connected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/710133 Title: Alsa does not recognize Realtek ACL1200 5.1 sound -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
