Are you sure that your card has a support for 5+1 surround sound? Which driver do you use? I am absolutely positive this card supports 5+1 surround. This is snd_via82xx. The card is: 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 50) Could you attach an output of 'aplay -l'? **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 1: V8235 [VIA 8235], device 0: VIA 8235 [VIA 8235] Subdevices: 4/4 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Subdevice #1: subdevice #1 Subdevice #2: subdevice #2 Subdevice #3: subdevice #3 card 1: V8235 [VIA 8235], device 1: VIA 8235 [VIA 8235] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 What happens if you try: aplay -D cards.VIA8233.pcm.surround51.0:CARD=0 /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav aplay -D surround51 /usr/share/sounds/phone.wav Could you attach content of /proc/asound/cards?

That works.... so what's the bug? Hold on a moment.... that was not a rhethorical question. There's a bug somewhere, because mplayer doesn't work. Furthermore, rhythmbox doesn't work, and the multimedia system selector doesn't work. Any program using ALSA doesn't work.... so I think the bug shouldn't be closed. What exactly do you mean by "you should use surround 51:1". I am not familiar with how ALSA is configured - I don't care - I only want my frontend to work. What change would you recommend to make the frontend(s) work? You have two soundcards but the primary (default) is the first one, i.e. UART. Device surround51 means "use surround for the primary/default card" but your primary card doesn't support it. Device surround51:1 means "use surround for the secondary card", which is V8235 and it's the right card. You can change your default card in /etc/asound.conf. I find this very strange, because, to the best of my knowledge I have one soundcard, and not two. This soundcard is onboard. My soundcard supports 5.1 channel-audio. I see no /etc/asound.conf, and no manpage for it. On the other hand I do see /etc/alsa/alsa.conf, but no manpage for that either, and I don't understand the format. I would expect sound to work out of the box on a Fedora install. You can use system-config-soundcard to set your primary soundcard and it will make /etc/asound.conf for you. Allright, thank you... So why is it that I have two soundcards (one of which doesn't work - I can't hear Test sound)... |
