Mark, |

I recompiled the kernel with more stuff as module, but I just had an |
8 |
idea to make sure the Behringer is the only card in the game: I |
9 |
disabled HD audio in the firmware settings. So: both Opera and Chrome |
10 |
play Youtube. aplay plays music files just fine, as it did before. |
11 |
Audacious also works (it requires modifying the former settings; |
12 |
that's probably what was missing before). So, I would say everything |
13 |
works, except stuff like discord. To my shame, I didn't check the logs |
14 |
with enough attention: it says: |
15 |
|
16 |
[000:000] [5256] (audio_device_pulse_linux.cc:1547): failed to load symbol table |
17 |
[000:000] [5256] (audio_device_pulse_linux.cc:145): failed to |
18 |
initialize PulseAudio |
19 |
[000:000] [5256] (audio_device_impl.cc:377): Audio device initialization failed. |

|
21 |
(To my defence: the ebuild does't try to pull pulseaudio; one would |
22 |
assume that it would be a dependency) |
23 |
|
24 |
Hence: no mystery at all, just the usual with linux nowadays. |

I'll keep searching for some audio chat package that works. mumble |
27 |
seems promising, but it requires an available server. zoom (which most |
28 |
people @work use) doesn't emerge. slack does emerge and vomits a |
29 |
totally unresponsive window (well, not *totally* unresponsive: Ctrl+Q |
30 |
works :)) |

Since you use pulseaudio (per your latest post): can you send the |
33 |
contents of a wav file to an external DAC via toslink, without |
34 |
pulseaudio messing with the file? (Most people don't seem to care |
35 |
whether the signal is first converted to analog, and resampled, and |
36 |
converted to digital, and whatnot, before leaving the computer...) |
37 |
|
38 |
I appreciate the enormous amount of effort you put on this. |
39 |
Thanks |
