I'm running fedora 12 on my Asus Z92VA laptop. Everything is running fine, except for the fact that I have no audio on my headphone. When I use the command "alsamixer -c0", there is no listing for the headphone.
When I use the command "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec" I get the following output:
Codec: Realtek ALC880
Codec: Conexant ID 2bfa
since updating my laptop to 10.04, I can't get any sound out of my headphones. If I plug the jack in, the sound from the loudspeakers turns off, but the headphones stay quiet.
I have run alsamixer and in fact the volume for the headphones is stuck to zero, and it's not possible to increase it.
My hardware config is posted here: [URL]
What I find funny, is that amixer reports that I don't have the capability of regulating the headphone volume:
Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0
Capabilities: pswitch penum
Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
Mono:
Front Left: Playback [on]
Front Right: Playback [on]
I have also used the AlsaUpgrade script to get the latest version of alsa, but it still doesn't work.
My microphone wasn't working so I entered alsamixer to amp up it's volume and see what's wrong.Not sure what I did wrong but now the gnome volume control applet in the Indicator does not affect system volume at all.I can even mute it and it will not mute anything.The volume controls in alsamixer work fine and changing the volume in alsamixer affect system volume immediately.What could I have done? How can I get back volume control inside gnome?
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust switched my laptop from that other operating system to openSUSE11.2. Everything works great except for one odd little bug. Both my speakers and headphones have output, are affected by the volume control and it even detects when I plug in headphones and stops output to the speakers. However the moment I adjust the volume, output to my headphones stops, and my speakers start.

I have a laptop DELL Latitude D600. The sounds works great and I can control it with the laptop buttons (increase/decrease/mute volume).
I just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04. In prior versions, I could control independently the volume for the speakers and for the headphones. And I was able to "join" them together so that when I increase the volume, it increases in both.
Now in 10.04 I can't find where to join them. But that's fine. The problem I have now is that the volume for the headphones seems to be a 10x multiplier of the "master" volume. For example, in order to hear "normal" on the headphones, the master volume has to be almost on mute. If I increase to 1/4 of the way out, the sound is too loud for a human being.
I went to alsamixer to see what's going on and started with everything at 0.
So I put my mouse on top of the volume control on the taskbar and with one "click" on the wheel (to increase volume) I get this code...
That's just one 'click' of the wheel... and the volume control shows almost nothing on the volume bar (the tooltip says Output: 5% -75.70 dB.
In the past the 5% gain in the output was proportional for the headphones. But now it's multiplied by a lot. This makes the volume control useless when using headphones. I have to go to alsamixer to adjust manually.
And to top it off, the new Ubuntu doesn't have the "old" volume control where you can see the level of each output element.
alsamixer doesn't change the real sound volume of my USB sound card (though the dials move okay)

sound on laptop running linux mint 9 isadora after restarting or if computer is idle. when the computer is idle for a while the sound will stop working even though it doesn't show muted. after restarting i have to run alsamixer and the master tab will be muted. i can unmute and it will work until the computer sits idle for a while.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI used ubuntu and recently I install mandriva in to my laptop. I am using a headphone and when I listening to music I reduce speaker sounds and increase headphone and master sounds using "alsamiser -c 0" command in terminal.But at the end of each song, speaker sounds automatically increased.so I have to increase the headphone and master sound and reduce speaker sounds at beginning of every song.
When I restart the machine master,speaker and headphone sounds usualy become silence. Is there any why to save the alsamixer settings or any other way to correct this error.
sound works just fine, as far as I know it's configured properly, I just don't have all the devices I should have in alsamixer.

I am using debian lenny. I have a problem with my headphone,its not working,but sound out from my speakes.
I checked for "alsa oss" installations.linux base sound system is there.
I cannot get sound out of the headphone port on a laptop. Headphones are plugged in, and sound comes out of the internal speakers. Windows behaves normally (sound switches to headphones when headphones are inserted).
It did work in Linux at one point, but something changed, we're just not sure what. Rebooting doesn't fix. This appears to occur whether or not PulseAudio is running. code...
This works in Windows: You plug headphones in, the internal speakers stop making noise, and noise comes out the head phones. Windows says I only have two sound cards: the HDMI port (which I don't care about) and the "sound card", which it claims is a "Conexant Pebble High Definition SmartAudio" In Windows, both the internal speakers and the headphone jack show up as one soundcard, which in my experience, is typical. (This is a laptop)
I bought a Media-Teach NEMESIS USB headphones. They work really great except there's this one button that lunches Windows Media Player on Windows but on Linux... it doesn't seem to do anything... So my question is, how do I assign a different task for this button on Linux? For example I want it to go to a website address.I guess I need to get what signal it sends thru usb to my system and then somehow manipulate it? Can this be done with a shell script or perhaps there's a tool/program available on Linux for this

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an on mobo sound 'card' with an ordinary stereo jack that I use, but one of my graphics cards (Raedon) also has sound built into it. I don't use that, because the connector is some new thingie that I don't need or want.
Anyway, every other distro sees the two sound devices and automaticaly picks the right one and uses it with no trouble. (One distro, can't remember if it was fedora ... asked me to pick the device I wanted, but there was no trouble after that). It seems that with Slack, alsaconf, tho it lets me pick the right card, doesn't send that choice to alsamixer, so that the latter tries to unmute the wrong card.
'alsamixer -c 1'
fixes everything. This looks like a bug to me, but it also looks like it would be very easy to fix by just telling alsaconf to tell alsamixer which card to unmute, as seems to be done in other distros.
I set alsamixer every time after login. I also did alsactl store but it doesn't work.
How to get rid of that?
Each time I boot into Ubuntu I have to mute the External Speaker within Alsamixer GUI in order to get sound.I have made several attempts to save this setting but without success
Also read numerous threads and google search tips but no matter what I try it still results in having to open Alsamixer and manually mute the setting each time I launch Ubuntu.
I feel little silly asking this, I accidently removed from my gnome panel my internet connection, volume control and battery indicator on F11. how can I add this back. It does not show up in the add to panel menu and the applications do not give you back the default feel.

Oddly enough, I discovered that I can only copy and paste by using the third mouse button. Pressing down on the scroll wheel after highlighting text copies the text, pressing it again pastes it Ican still use the Edit-copy and Edit-paste menu functions.
I'm sure it has something to do with all the tinkering I have been doing with my desktop. I have been experimenting with CompizConfig and Cairo dock, changing my themes and things of this nature.

But I have no tools to control the fan speed from 'acpi'. in particular '/proc/acpi/fan' is an empty directory.
There are no fan info/controls in BIOS either.
I believe the fans do not work as fast as they should and I am trying to find a way to fix this before the cpu cores are melted down from overheating.

The problem is that everytime i restart the netbook the "Input so" switch automatically to "Front mic" instead to keep the setting "Int mic".
I tried to use sudo alsa ctl store but nothing change...Maybe there is another way for to set "input so" to "Int mic" by default.Im using Ubuntu 9.10 desktop 32 bit.

View 7 Replies View RelatedMy probelem is with alsamixer. I can't record anything; nothing I play back hasany sound. I have alsamixer capture set on mix. I know I recordedin the past with this setting, so I don't know what is happening. I amrecording from the internet.When I adjust the volume on playback in either alsamixer or kmix thevolume settings change on the other as well. when I adjust thevolume setting in capture it doesn't affect each other.If I have Kmix > inpur > capture enabled I can record, but the playbackdoesn't sound good. I would like to figure what is wrong with alsamixer.

Then at reboot, I wish to have sound. Is that possible with Linux or shall we wait a stable version of Debian whcih works, simply ?
