From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040207 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: Probably just another report of a problem with soundcard detection with Fedora Core 2 � Linux Kernel 2.6 I guess the following will be understandable enough without further comment: The following audio device was detected: Vendor: VIA Technologies Model: VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller Module: snd-via82xx Try to play test sound and: Automatic detection of the sound card did not work. Audio will not be available on the system. Please click OK to continue. The motherboard is a Shuttle AV49VN with the above VIA onboard sound, of course. Complete, fresh installation of Fedora Core 2. Soundcard detected perfectly by Red Hat Linux 9 and Fedora Core 1 (Yum upgrade from RH9). Believe it is to do with switch from OSS to ALSA, but have not yet found good, clear, convincing description of how to get sound working. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.> System Settings 2.> Soundcard Detection 3.> Play test sound Actual Results: No sound, mplayer just shows video without sound, no audio streaming Expected Results: Sound from both speakers one after the other then together etc etc Additional info:
That's the correct driver, so it appears something is wrong with the driver code.
Listing of /etc/modproce.conf: alias eth0 via-rhine alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx install snd-via82xx /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-via82xx && /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || : remove snd-via82xx { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-via82xx alias usb-controller ehci-hcd alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd Is this OK?
Sorry, that was /etc/modprobe.conf
Have found that there were (zero) settings in âVolume Controlâ panel that needed changing (should have checked there first I guess, but with the test sound not playing.... ) CD's and MPlayer now seem to play OK, but the test sound and RealPlayer play with a sort of (quite audible) scratchy sound in the background.
