Description Michael Droettboom 2009-09-16 23:53:22 UTC
Description of problem:

No sound is output by default on machine with ICE1712 (M-Audio RPC-1 connected to Roland VM-3100Pro).

g-v-c provides only following profiles (on the hardware pane):
 
  Digital Stereo (IEC958) Input
  Digital Surround 4.0 (IEC958) Input
  None

On the output pane, the only device is "Dummy Output (Stereo)"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

pulseaudio-0.9.17-1.fc12.x86_64
gnome-volume-control 2.27.91

(testday-20090915-x86_64.iso LiveCD)

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

Play sound with any application.
  
Actual results:

No sound.

Expected results:

Hear sound.

Additional info:

This audio device has 10-channels of output, but they are labeled by alsa in an unusual way.  Not knowing how this all works, could that be the problem?

Comment 1 Michael Droettboom 2009-09-17 00:12:28 UTC
This is what I had to add to my default.pa on FC11 to get pulse to work:

load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=VM3100Pro_out device=hw:ICE1712 format=s32le channels=10 channel_map=left,right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7

load-module module-alsa-source source_name=VM3100Pro_int device=hw:ICE1712 format=s32le channels=12 channel_map=left,right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7,aux8,aux9


... it would be nice to have these kind of cards working out of the box though.  I think the first two channels would be a good bet for stereo output on these kind of cards, even if they aren't labeled as such and they can be configured (routed by external hardware) to just about anything.
