Hi Miroslav, |
| 27 |
Yes, I think I already have all that set up correctly. See the |
| 28 |
following info: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
dragonfly ~ # cat /proc/asound/modules |
| 31 |
0 snd_intel8x0 |
| 32 |
1 snd_usb_audio |
| 33 |
dragonfly ~ # cat /etc/modules.d/alsa | grep options |
| 34 |
options snd-intel8x0 index=0 |
| 35 |
options snd-usb-audio index=1 |
| 36 |
options snd cards_limit=2 |
| 37 |
dragonfly ~ # cat /etc/modprobe.conf | grep options |
| 38 |
options snd-intel8x0 index=0 |
| 39 |
options snd-usb-audio index=1 |
| 40 |
options snd cards_limit=2 |
| 41 |
dragonfly ~ # |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
The Intel HDA card is default. The USB device is an external USB to |
| 44 |
Optical spdif converter that runs to the external home theater |
| 45 |
receiver. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
All audio applications EXCEPT xine use the internal Intel card. |
| 48 |
ONLY xine is using the external USB device. (Card 1 instead of Card 0) |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
Keep in mind that one my Gentoo-based AMD64 machine I have two |
| 51 |
audio cards as shown here and xine is working fine. Audio goes to card |
| 52 |
0 exactly as it should. It gets mixed into the HDSP later but I can |
| 53 |
tell that xine audio is going through the 8X0 driver as it responds to |
| 54 |
the Gnome volume control and shows p on the correct input in |
| 55 |
hdspmixer. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
mark@lightning ~ $ cat /proc/asound/modules |
| 58 |
0 snd_intel8x0 |
| 59 |
1 snd_hdsp |
| 60 |
mark@lightning ~ $ |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
Note that you might want to add the options snd cards_limit=3 to |
| 63 |
your config file. |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
Thanks, |
| 66 |
Mark |
