SB Live! 5.1 Digital - Master does not mix rear/center/lfe
Last modified: 2005-10-19 15:22:16 UTC
I have the problem, that the Master slider in the alsamixer (and every other mixer i tried) only changes the volume of the two front speakers, but not the rear/center/lfe. Neither the pcm slider does. I have had a look into the alsa Wiki where exactly this problem was mentioned. But the solution there was to upgrade to at least alsa-1.0.0, but i'm currently using alsa-1.0.9 and have had exactly this problem with many other alsa versions/linux-2.6 kernels before. Mentioning that problem in the alsa-user mailing list gave me these replies: http://phpfi.com/82837 (excerpt) my /etc/asound.state http://nopaste.php-q.net/166242 my /proc/asound/cards: 0 [Live ]: EMU10K1 - SB Live 5.1 SB Live 5.1 (rev.7, serial:0x80641102) at 0xc000, irq 209 my /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#0-0 http://nopaste.php-q.net/166244 my /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/ac97#0-0+regs http://nopaste.php-q.net/166245 dunno wich other information is required... Thanks in advance Christian PS: i have already upgraded to SuSE Linux 10.0 but that didnt solve this problem.
The change was only for Audigy, not for SB live. So, it's still a "feature". Hopefully it'll be fixed in the future version...
