After a recent update ALSA stopped working. Apparently, ALSA now |
2 |
defaults to a device that doesn't work (fails to open, or just hangs). |

On Gentoo, with OpenRC, how do you configure the default board/device |
5 |
for ALSA? |
6 |
|

I've asked Google, and all the links it comes up with are for sites |
8 |
that are broken because of PHP or database failures (e.g. wiki.gentoo.org |
9 |
and forums.gentoo.org). |
10 |
|
11 |
The usual fallback is wiki.archlinux.org, but its instructions to |
12 |
place the following in /etc/asound.conf or ~/.asoundrc doesn't work: |
13 |
|
14 |
defaults.pcm.card 1 |
15 |
defaults.ctl.card 1 |
16 |
|
17 |
Likewise the wiki.archlinux.org advice to set ALSA_CARD to the card |
18 |
name shown by aplay -l also doesn't work. |

How do you set the devault card/device for ALSA on Gentoo? |
