Fedora Hardware :: SPDIF Output Does Not Work On Sound Card
Dec 27, 2009
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.

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 am looking to get a sound card to put in my HTPC that is running Ubuntu 10.04. I bought Auzentech x-plosion sound card that has spdif support but it does not work. Does anyone know of any card that will work or am I out of luck??

I have a problem with my sound card Microphone is working, headphones work but with kind of a low audio output, laptop speakers do not work at all. I have checked alsamixer and pulseaudio nothing is muted, tried all sort of different combinations and pulseaudio actually sees that mplayer for example is playing music, or skype is in videocall and using the sound device, but nothing is coming out of the speakers.
Laptop is Sony Yseries VPCYB15AG Alsa-info is [URL] Audio Device is 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40) Drivers Loaded are :

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.

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

I have installed Fedora 13 on my laptop, but there is something wrong with the sound。It just comes from both the computer and the headphone. I have installed alsa, you can see as follows:
[PDS@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep alsa

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.

When I installed my 64 bit system of Ubuntu 10.04 the sound worked very well and I were very happy. The problem started however when I installed Skype which uses pulseaudio. As soon as I start skype (or any other application that uses pulse, HoN for example) the applications sound output or input does not work at all. If I have pulseaudio started in some way, applications that I suppose do not use it like spotify or flash player stops to produce sounds. And when I type "pulseaudio" in the terminal it gives me this:

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.

The only user that can make the sound card work on a F10 x86_64 system is root. For non root users, I am not seeing any error messages when a app tries to use/access the sound card, just nothing plays. As I said, for root everything works as expected. I am sure this is a permission/setup issue, but I have no idea where to start.

trying to get everything set up in Debian lenny on my new Toshiba staellite L500. I have successfully installed the wireless drivers and graphics card and have them both up and running. But I'm having trouble with the sound card. Specifically, it appears to be installed but I cant get any sound or any devices related to sound (speakers, volume control, alsamixer) to work at all.
this is my kernel:
uname -r
2.6.26-2-686
and this is the result of lspci:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Device 0044 (rev 02)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Device 0045 (rev 02)

A few days ago I setup a pc. It contains an "Intel ICH5" sound card. Before I begin posting all the configuration stuff I've tried so far what the standard procedures are to set it all up for recording the sound card output (with Audacity)?
On my older computer it all worked fine but now I only get silent recordings. However sometimes (when I played on the controls the right way...) I get recordings where you can (amoung some noise) recognize the stuff I actually wanted to record very low... Apart from Audacity I've also tried
Code:
arecord -vv -fdat audio.wav
which didn't work either. That's why I think the problem is not related to Audacity but to the system.
Is the combination of OpenSuse 11.2 + ALSA + Intel ICH5 commonly known to cause such trouble?

Sound used to work fine on my computer, but one day my headphone jack stopped working -- when I tried to use it, no sound played through the headphones but did play through the computer's speakers.After I tried to fix it, I lost ALL sound on my computer. I noticed in my sound preferences it says "Dummy Output" and no other hardware.The problem seems common -- I've Googled the issue to death and read many threads here about the same problem -- but no matter how many times I've tried, I can't find a solution that works for me.I'm relatively new to Ubuntu and so there's still a great deal of stuff that

In ubuntu 10.04 my X-fi Fatal1ty Titanium sound card worked for my speakers but I had to use onboard sound for the mic. When I installed 10.10 the sound card no longer works at all so I have to run the speakers through the onboard sound.
The second problem I have is that Skype will not pick up my microphone all other programs seem to be able to record from the microphone just fine but skype does not. Ive tried selecting all the different input device options from the skype settings but none of them seem to work.
EDIT: Sound doesn't work at all in wine.
EDIT2: The X-fi card no longer shows up in the sound control panel.

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 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.

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 used to be able to use Skype without a problem. I must have played with something as it now doesn't allow me to both use a microphone and external speakers at the same time.I go into sound setting and I am able to test the microphone (works) but then the speakers don't show, if I reverse the tests then the opposite happens.

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 can't hear what I'm recording in Audacity. Please can someone help/suggest something helpful to solve this problem? I have tried changing the output in the sound preferences panel but this does not work either. I'm using Lucid Lynx Ubuntu.

I am currently running 9.04 on an HP Mini 1033CL.When I first upgraded to 9.04, my sound card would not work. Finally, about 3 months ago, an update changed that. Now, I see that 9.10 is available, but I am nervous about installing it. Are there any foreseeable problems I need to know about? Keep in mind, I know little about Ubuntu and use it on my netbook (my fun computer) because it is free and I hate windows. Therefore, if there are buggy problems I have to adjust in bios or by tagging something, or whatever, I have no idea how to do it. 9.04 seems fine, so why upgrade?
