Public bug reported:
Kubuntu 9.04 amd64
(libasound2 1.0.18-1ubuntu9)
I have E-MU 0404 USB locked to the 44100 on hardware level (but my
problem isn't frequency dependent). This card has no hardware mixer, so
I'm trying to get "working" software mixer, but with no luck.
The problem:
When I start aplay with default device or "emu" (see my config below) I have a
clean sound like it must be (but no software mixing), when I use aplay with
"emutest" device I have a noisy sound like it was in 8 bit.
May be dmix doesn't support S24_3LE output format which is only supported by
current driver for my card and falls back to 8 bit format? But I don't get any
warnings about unsupported format:
> aplay -D emutest /tmp/test.wav
Playing WAVE '/tmp/test.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz,

hw_params:

format: S24_3LE

pcm.emudmix {

}
bindings {

}
}
pcm.emu {

slave {

}
}
pcm.!default {
