Debian :: How To Enable SPDIF
Apr 18, 2011
Just installed 6.0.1 on my computer with a GA-H55N-USB3. It seems to have a Realtek ALC892 on it, and six 3.5mm jacks out and SPDIF too. I installed alsa and sound came from the 3.5mm jack, but I want SPDIF. I don't know what approach to make to enable it and that's the problem. SPDIF just have two modes in alsamixer, "00" or "MM" (muted). Master and PCM are set to 100. The SPDIF connecter is'nt even lit. How to enable it? I tried "alsactl init" and then rebooting, it made no difference.

I recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine. However if I ever disable it in plugins section I am subsequently unable to re-enable it (doesn't appear in the side panel again). Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

there is no errors in log, also the AV shows PCM input for all sound (pcm/ac3/dts and so on) but there is silence (trying with both pulseaudio and alsa). Everything works with kernel 2.6.35.6-48 and before. the problem exists at least for 2.6.35.9-64.fc14 and 2.6.36.1-11.fc15
my audio is
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 06)

For months it was perfect. Simultaneous sound from both SPDIF and computer speakers. Today suddenly out of the blue no sound in SPDIF. If I click Test in KDE System Settings for SPDIF devivce that sound is played, so, I tried putting this device at the top, then sound comes only from SPDIF but not from the speakers!
God, why in Linux something perfect breaks into thousand pieces without any seemingly changes...

I am a linux newbie; nethertheless I am trying to setup an old PC as jukebox using Debian. Unfortunately I can't get the SPDIF of the soundcard working (which works fine using windows). I tried a lot, spent the last evenings in the web to find an answer.. I will try to tell you what I tried so far, hardware and command outputs (aplay -l / -L) are at the bottom: For me it seems that the driver is installed correctly; with "aplay test.wav" I can hear sound with normal speakers and "aplay -L" shows the SPDIF device name (see bottom). But if I try to use it using "aplay -D iec958:CARD=CS46xx,DEV=0 test.wav":

I am attempting to configure my HTPC with FC13. You can see my hardware configuration at the following link.The problem I am facing is trying to output surround audio using the spdif (optical) interface. The system correctly recognizes the integrated sound card (MCP78S High Definition Audio), but fails to offer the option of digital surround output. The only option for digital output is plain stereo. On the other hand it does offer all the analog surround output options.I have tried modifying the /etc/pulse/daemon.conf and specifying it to use 6 channels, but it still uses just 2. And for added grief, it sends one of the channels to the subwoffer instead of the front right channel.

I'm trying to get AC3/DTS passthrough working with my HTPC in which I'm using the onboard sound from an nForce 4-based motherboard. I've tested it in Win7 to check that all the connections etc are set up correctly and it works perfectly there. However under Kubuntu I can only get 2ch PCM sound to work through the SPDIF connection. Any DTS/DD sources just result in silence.If I go into Multimedia settings in the System Settings panel, the SPDIF device that shows up there (once I enable advanced devices) produces no sound with the Test button. I can hear a click as the device is activated but no sound is produced. I can also see that a digital signal is making it to my receiver as it has an icon which lights up when it locks onto a signal.Has anyone had success with SPDIF passthrough in 9.10? I've tried twiddling all the settings in Kmix relate to IEC and also tried following the Alsa wiki on digital passthrough without any success.

Using latest Ubuntu 10.04, the Creative Sound Blater X-Fi Titanium does not show (sound preferences) SPDIF (Digital).
Only Analog options are present.
While
Code:
alsamixer
shows S/PDIF with max volume... (IN and OUT)
Is there any alsa-base "options" to configure to see SPDIF in Sound-preferences?

I just did an install on a new partition to upgrade my htpc. I'm unable to get any sound over SPDIF working. I do not have a receiver that accepts HDMI so I need to use spdif That said, i was able to test the hdmi portion of the sound with my tv and that appears to be working fine.[URL]Below is just the list of aplay -l

I just installed Ubuntu Lucid beta 2 on my desktop, and I can't seem to get the sound to work. I have a Soundblaster Audigy 2 card and the motherboard has built-in sound, but ubuntu doesn't recognize either of them. The only hardware option I have in my sound preferences is for SPDIF, and thats the only thing that shows up in alsamixer as well.

Currently using an Asrock ION 330 with an SPDIF output and running 10.04It works as stereo but can't get the system to run as surround sound and everything shows as 2 channels only.The hardware itself supports it fine as it works under windows 7 without issues so it has to be a config issue somewhere.I have tried everything I can find via google including upgrading the alsa drivers but so far there has been no change.

I have just bought a new PC with an ASUS M4A78-AM motherboard with integrated VT1708S 6-channel sound chip in it, so I freshly installed fedora 12 without any issues However, I can't get the surround sound working. I have searched many forums a lot, and haven't found any solution yet.It seems that even the SPDIF output does not work on this sound card, and that is what people talk about on almost every forum / mail list. So I was unable to find almost ANY information regarding ANALOG surround sound.
The motherboard has 3 jacks on it - green for FRONT / 2 speaker set; blue is the line in OR THE REAR-SPEAKER out, and pink is the microphone OR side speaker out in the 6-spk configuration.My speaker configuration is 4.1 [2 front, 2 back and subwoofer]. Line out does not produce any sound.I have uninstalled pulseaudio [sudo yum remove pulseaudio]Now alsamixer shows a lot of controls, but even if I unmute line out and set it to max, it is still not producing any sound.

I am using the Creative X-Fi Surround sound card and a Samsung 5.1 Home Theater system. When I play back MP3s, or system sounds are played, the beginning of the audio is cut off. The nature of the cut-off is that audio fades in instead of just starting. It's only the fraction of a second, but whenever sound is played after a silence (i.e. also in songs that have short silent breaks, like Roxette's "The Look"), the beginning of the audio quickly fades in. So in "The Look", instead of playing
Na na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na na she's got the look
It plays:
[%fade in]a na na na na, na na na na na, na na na na na na she's got the look
Any ideas what is causing this? I already turned off the suspend option for Pulse audio, but it happens whether I use Pulse or ALSA for output.

Ubuntu 10.10 x64 worked out of the box for me but there is one irritating issue.
I have Xonar DS(Oxygen HD Audio) with analogue 2.1 speakers and spdif passthrough to nvidia GTX260 hdmi output for my tv.
It makes random cracking noise on tv unless something is played, no matter on analogue or digital output, then is noiseless.
Alsa 1.0.23, kernel 2.6.35

I have a shared headphone/spdif jack on my ASUS B53J and am running Ubuntu 11.04 Natty. I am not able to get the digital spdif output to work. I have tested the spdif out under Windows 7 and it works perfectly.

I'm trying to get sound from Ubuntu 10.04 out thru the integrated realtek alc850 chipset to my home theatre via the spdif port. I installed the drivers from realtek but still no sound. Under Places-Preferences-Sound, only the IEC958 shows up. What else should I do? Neither Rhythmbox nor Alsa show the Realtec spdif.

On my initial setup I follow the Comprehensive sound guide that is posted on the ubuntu forums because I wanted to get the spdif work Optical out with surround. After a while I was able some how to get it to work and but my headphones would no longer output sound so in an effort to get sound back to the headphones I maanged to ruin the the settings for the spdif.My question is how can I get spdif back and switch between headphones and spdif.I there no way to figure it out how do I purge every file that has to do with sound and recompile. ( THe comprehensive sound guide showed how to purge the alsa utils but that didnt work if someone know why please let me know and if you could explain.)

I bought this motherboard 6 months ago and I've been hammering on it since then. I can get audio output on the analog channels but what I'd really like is output on the SPDIF (optical, digital) channel so that I can have better sound quality on my home theater system. What I've tried...-I followed the sound troubleshooting guide.-I tried the 6 stack/3 stack approach suggested on the ALSA website.-Tried compiling and installing the latest version of alsa.-Tried installing the development drivers for alsa that are put out by the ubuntu community.

Recently i put a DAC connected to the CL X-FI board via the SPDIF interface. Result is i can listen only one channel, the left one (hedaphone) while using the xmms, audacious.
The thing is that i'm able to listen both channels if i use the VLC configured with the same output, that is hw:2,4.
Info:
[root@kryptonbox ~]# lsmod | grep snd

How do I enable networking in Debian? I just installed Debian on my iMac 7.1 (which works perfectly well with ubuntu - but I'd like to get away from ubuntu because it seems to be targeting teenagers now which is only going to get worse). I used the latest daily build of the netinstall CD and had the network configured with DHCP, but now I find I have to enter my root password (login password will not do) to activate the network.
Of course, coming from ubuntu I disabled root login during install. I have to say, so far my impression of Debian isn't so good. For starters, to be able to boot at all I had to look for my refit CD which I hadn't used in ages because I don't need it in ubuntu. Also scrolling is wonky, like with the realtime kernel in ubuntu. How do I enable root login, or more to the point, how do I get by in Debian without enabling root login? I am not a systematic person at all, and one day I'm bound to forget that I'm root when I go online.

What is the problem?

emulate3buttons is the feature where left+right click is registered as a middle click. in squeeze, this is enabled, until you use the actual middle button for the first time, then it's disabled (i find that weird, but ok...). i would like to enable this feature permanently, but the following things i tried didn't work:
1: create /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/mouse.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"

I noticed that when my server boots up, it's network interface on eth0 is always down and I always must run the 'ifup eth0' command in order to get it to work for some reason. I checked my configuration and it looks legit to me...
Code:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
# The loopback network interface

I'm using Debian Lenny, the only problem that I have is that the sound card isn't recognize by the system, I have installed ALSA 1.0.20 and I followed several tutorials trying to enable my sound card (ATI tech Azalia (Intel HDA)but all tries fail.
So, after install another distro in the same pc I figured out that the sound card is enable and running by default, the ALSA version is the same -1.0.20- but the kernel is different -2.6.31.xx- so my questions are:
1. do you recommend me to upgrade my lenny's kernel to fix the problem?
2. is there a way to upgrade specific packages -for example samba, alsa, kernel- using unstable or testing versions instead of upgrade the entire distro? actually I'm confortable with lenny
3. what configuration should I check in the "other" distro to use that parameters in lenny?

how, and if, I enable 3Dnow, and other CPU related features?
I'm not having any problems or anything to that effect. I am only curious. Is this something that's automatically done? Is this something I must do during compile and install of applications?
haunted@haunted-desktop:~$ sudo grep flags /proc/cpuinfo
flags: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr syscall mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow
If this is something I must enable manually per application, then for example, if I wanted it enabled for FlightGear, how would I go about doing that?
