816880 – ALSA: Update the snd-oxygen and snd-virtuoso (CMI87xx based) drivers for RHEL 6.4

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Comment 1 Jaroslav Kysela 2012-04-27 12:02:51 UTC

Is something sound related in /var/log/messages ?

The snd-oxygen driver (module) should handle the CMI8788 hadware.

I can't see any important output.

But you can have access to this machine if you want, just let me know.

Comment 4 Jaroslav Kysela 2012-04-27 12:47:47 UTC

You may try to insert the snd-oxygen module manually. I don't see anything sound related, too.

An access to the machine would be fine. Thanks.

Comment 6 Jaroslav Kysela 2012-04-27 14:49:15 UTC

Update: This hardware version (Asus Xonar DS) is not supported in the driver. I've tried to add these lines to the driver code, but it requires testing, if it helps:

       /* Asus Xonar DS */
        { OXYGEN_PCI_SUBID(0x1043, 0x838e), .driver_data = MODEL_XONAR_DG },

I'm not sure how much the DG / DS models differs. Some hi-res pictures of the card might help to identify the used audio chips and I can check the driver code.

Comment 7 RHEL Program Management 2012-05-03 04:55:04 UTC

Since RHEL 6.3 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 8 Jaroslav Kysela 2012-05-09 07:44:42 UTC

More info: The snd-virtuoso driver should be updated in RHEL6 to add support for Asus Xonar DS cards. Also, the snd-oxygen driver should be updated.
