wiki.gentoo.org is back, and it says to use something like this in /etc/asound.conf |
| 17 |
or ~/asoundrc: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
defaults.pcm.!card 1 |
| 20 |
defaults.pcm.!device 0 |
| 21 |
defaults.ctl.!card 1 |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
That also does nothing. Using card names as shown at |
| 24 |
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ALSA#Files also does nothing. |
| 25 |

Yes, I'm restarting alsasound after changing /etc/asound.conf |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
The only way I can get sound is to specify the card using -D with |
| 29 |
aplay, or using -ao alsa:device= with mplayer, or by manually choosing |
| 30 |
the correct output device in VLC. |
