Comment 2 Martin Stransky 2006-01-31 22:31:50 UTC
What about other sound applications (xmms, mplayer...) do they work?


Comment 3 Andy Burns 2006-01-31 22:39:38 UTC
rhythmbox won't play virgin's ogg streams, it used to on a previous install

the volume control applet doesn't "ding" when you drag the slider, the mixer
applet only shows "headphone", "capture" and "mux" devices, it used to show
"front" (and I think but I can't  swear to it "rear") outputs too ...



Comment 4 Martin Stransky 2006-02-01 07:54:30 UTC
Which version of alsa-lib and alsa-utils do you have?

Comment 5 Andy Burns 2006-02-01 08:40:24 UTC
Name   : alsa-lib
Arch   : i386
Version: 1.0.11
Release: 2.rc2

Name   : alsa-utils
Arch   : x86_64
Version: 1.0.11
Release: 1.rc2


Comment 6 Martin Stransky 2006-02-01 08:56:25 UTC
Why do you have the i386 alsa-lib package? I think it should be x86_64, huh?

Comment 7 Andy Burns 2006-02-01 09:19:59 UTC
Well I have whatever yum gave me :-) but yum has been playing up a little
recently with duplicate versions, also I never know which packages are supposed
to have 32bit and/or 64bit arches installed in parallel

Anyhow, I just checked with yumex (rather than yum info which only listed first
match) and I have both the i386 and x86_64 of alsa-lib and only the x86_64 of
alsa-utils

which corresponds with what I see in the x86_64 repo


Comment 8 Andy Burns 2006-02-04 18:53:36 UTC
Upgraded to 2.6.15-1.1907_FC5 (and rest of rawhide from today)

I now see the full compliment of sliders for this motherboard in
gnome-volume-control :-)

PCM/Front/Surround/Center/LFE/Side/Mux

And ALSA is working again, not sure if it's been fixed, or just working agin of
it's own accord, didn't see any particular sound fixes ...
