I've installed a Creative SB Audigy2 ZS sound card in my desktop system. The |
| 2 |
card uses an EMU10K2 chip, supported by the emu10k1 kernel driver. This card |
| 3 |
has 3 line outputs on the back. I would like to be able to direct sound using |
| 4 |
ALSA devices to at least 2 of these 3 outputs. On other, older cards I could |
| 5 |
do this by directing sound to alsa devices hw:0,0 and hw:0,1 in my .asoundrc |
| 6 |
but this doesn't work for this card. |

Basically, I need to direct high quality audio to an external amp and a couple |
| 9 |
of JBL studio control room monitors, and event sounds from the computer to the |
| 10 |
el cheapo (but adequate) speakers mounted in my monitor. Sending an audio |
| 11 |
signal to hw:0,0 gets the sound to the 1st audio output on the card with all |
| 12 |
the bells and whistles (e.g. tone control) available. No problems there :-) |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
How can I set up my /etc/modules.d/alsa or ~/.asoundrc file to direct an audio |
| 15 |
input stream to the 2nd or 3rd audio output on the card? I don't need much |
| 16 |
control over this audio stream. Volume control would be nice, but I can pretty |
| 17 |
much set it and leave it in the built-in amp in the monitor which drives the |
| 18 |
speakers. |

Any other sources of information to which someone could refer me would be |
| 21 |
appreciated. |
