OpenSUSE Hardware :: Can't Save ALSA Configuration

May 10, 2011

I have just installed OpenSuse 11.4 with XFCE environment on my Acer Aspire 5738Z.

Everytime I boot, I need to configure manually the "capture device" with Alsamixer to change it from "micro" to "internal micro".

I tried to save the settings using alsactl store/restore as I do with Ubuntu, but it doesn't work. Every time I restart my computer, the capture is on "micro" again.

how to save the settings permanently ?

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Cannot Find ALSA-Configuration.txt In System

Dec 28, 2010

Once in a while I stumble on this (after I install something which probably conflicts). I was able with the sticky notes to correct the problem few times but this time is a bit more complicated at least for me.What is strange is that I cannot find the ALSA-Configuration.txt in my system.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Mplayer Configuration - Save URLs

Jan 3, 2010

I'm not able to reproduce a configuration which I had before.

The plot: openSUSE 11.1 i586, seamonkey 1.1.18, MPlayer dev-SVN-r30099-4.3-openSUSE Linux 11.1 (i686)-Packman = MPlayer-1.0rc2_r30099-1.pm.1.1, mplayerplug-in-3.55+cvs20090923-0.pm.2.2

My old system which died in a catastrophic hardware failure did write the URLs of all movies played with mplayerplug-in to a file located at $HOME/Movies/playlist.

How can I configure the new system to do it again?

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Configuring Alsa (or Alsa-oss) After Hardware Upgrade?

Nov 19, 2010

I have recently been forced to do a hardware upgrade (my previous mobo died). Now, sounds works ok with,amarok because kde has recognized the new hardware and switched to it.

..... does not work, likely because flash uses alsa-oss which is probably not configured automatically. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both alsa-oss and flash, but it didn't solve the problem.

Debian Configuration :: How To Configure The ALSA

Jun 16, 2010

I am using Debian testing. If I install the gnome-desktop-environment then the sound driver defaults to HDA but since I just installed gnome-core (for a more stripped-down version of gnome) the default is the OSS driver. How do I get ALSA to default to the sound driver HDA?

Debian Configuration :: Is There Preferred / Better Method For Setting Up Alsa?

Apr 30, 2011

Would like to know the best way (or the pros and cons of different ways) to set up Alsa. I did a search for information on how to setup alsa on my system. I found a lot of out-of-date information even on the alsa wiki. What I did finally locate was two different methods for setup, both seemed somewhat up-to-date. One method at the alsa wiki said to put part of the information in the modprobe directory in a conf file and set up certain aliases. Earlier suggestions for putting information in modprobe.conf or conf.modprobe appear to be outdated and a directory with separate files for each device and a conf extension to the files is currently used. The second method from a thread on the Debian forum said to use alsactl init, set sound levels the way you want and then use alsactl save and restore functionality. Older methods using alsaconf instead of alsactl init appear to be outdated as well. Not sure where to put the call to alsactl restore though. Didn't notice that in the documentation.In case it matters, I'm running Debian Stable and have a built-in sound card on the motherboard with AC97 compatibility. It's a Realtek ALC882.

Is there a preferred or better method for setting up alsa? Is there a good pointer to instructions that are not out-of-date somewhere? Would be very interested to hear how others set sound up on their machines. What do others recommend as best steps to do this?

Slackware :: Installing ATI Drivers Broke ALSA Configuration / Fix This?

Jan 22, 2011

I install the ATI drivers yesterday and today I've realised that it broke my sound. I have a HDA nVidia sound card built in (with a Realtek chip), but when I run alsaconf, it doesn't find it. It tries to use either the ATI HDMI audio port or a legacy generic driver. Any hints as to how I can fix this?

Debian Configuration :: Installing Audio Firmware And ALSA Config

Oct 28, 2015

I know very little about Debian but have an ASUS T100TA tablet which runs fairly well under Debian 8 Jessie (kernel 3.16.0-4-686-pae). I used the following guide successfully to activate the wireless but am having trouble with the audio section of it.URL...

First, I went here and downloaded the file called 'NEW T100_B.state'.URL....

Then I copied it to /var/lib/alsa/asound.state and ran 'alsactl restore' which reported that i had no soundcards.I then downloaded and expanded linux-firmware-master-intel.tar.gz but am not sure what to do with these files. I copied them to /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-686-pae/kernel/drivers/firmware as they are specific for this kernel, but they don't seem to be doing anything and 'alsactl restore' still tells me that I don't have a soundcard. What do I need to do with these files?

Debian Configuration :: Checking For Directory With ALSA Kernel Sources

I followed this doc for the "debian method" for building the kernel: [URL]. I installed the source in /var/tmp/src/linux-2.6-2.6.32 , configured it, and tried make-kpkg modules-image. The error I get is:

I tried some hacks such as setting KBUILD_SRC or ln -s linux-headers-2.6.32-5-amd64/ /usr/src/linux - but these fail too.

Debian Configuration :: Reinstall Lenny, Save /home Directory?

Jun 29, 2010

I recently reinstalled Lenny and I am attempting to save my /home directory. I used the graphical install and when it came to the part about partitioning, I created a new /home partition "hdb1" and told the installer to ignore my old /home partition "/dev/hda9".Following the completion of the install, I logged in and changed my /etc/fstab so that /home --> my old /home partition "/dev/hda9". I then mounted the old partition to /home and rebooted the system. Now, when I go to my /home directory >> properties, I can see that the files I had are on the drive (2GB are used) --- but --- I cannot actually see the files??

OpenSUSE :: Losing Sound In KDE But ALSA Works?

Mar 7, 2010

For some reason my sound stops working in KDE4. I can't trace it to any particular event, it seems to happen randomly. I think the problem started when I tried installing ktts (the text to speech engine) but I cannot be sure. I've now removed ktts but my problem persists.The strange thing is that if I go to the sound configuration in yast and play the test sound it works fine. But if I try play the test sound in multimedia settings from within systemsettings then I get an error saying "The audio playback device HDA Intel (AD198x Analog) does not work." Also that error message window is titled phonon.

I didn't install phonon but notice that it's installed. I assume it was installed with the default install because trying to remove it brings up over a 100 dependencies.The left speaker / right speak test from the konsole works but only as su and not as me. I get permission errors. Is that normal?

Code:

speaker-test -c2 -l5 -twav
speaker-test 1.0.21
Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels

[code]....

I also notice that sometimes when I boot up, after I login at the graphic login screen it kicks me out to the command prompt asking me to log in again. When I log in and "startx" KDE starts up but without sound and no kmix. Trying to start kmix manually doesn't start it. I just get an empty window.Again the sound works from the yast sound test.I've tried removing the kmix config files from /.kde4/config/ but that doesn't help. The logs don't show anything obvious to me and the problem appears to occur randomly in so much I haven't been able to figure out what triggers it yet.I also noticed during a session that I have this sound problem and after I've fixed it by resetting the sound card in yast that kde doesn't shutdown when trying to shut the laptop down.

I get the kde logging off chime but the desktop remains and is fully functional. After that any attempt to log-off or shutdowm is ignored. I'm forced to run the shutdown command from the konsole to shut the laptop down. I'm not sure how it's related but it only happens after the sound problem occurs. I'm using KDE4.4.1 but this started in KDE4.4.0 so the update didn't help any. When I upgraded to KDE4.4.0 I started with a fresh .kde4 directory.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Alsa And Two Sound Cards In 11.2?

Dec 2, 2009

1. I run Suse 11.2 with two sound cards , one HDA comes with motherboard and second is USB, which I use for skype and talking. In YAST everything is fine the motherboard card is marked as prime card and the usb card is marked as second. But often when I log in alsa decides that second card is main and I have to pull out the USB card, run command "rcalsasound restart" and put the USB back afterward. It is a way that to be fixed in the way that alsa remember my choices forever. 2. The other problem is that from time to time the sound suddenly dies and I have to bring it up with rcalsasound restart again.

But I have to admit that their significant improvement with managing sound with PulseAudio.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Alsa: Cannot Record Sound

Mar 17, 2011

I've got sound - I hear all the system sounds, I can play sound files, CDs, etc. But I have not been able to record and play back anything with success.

Originally, when I would record (either with arecord or with audacity) I would get extremely low quality sound, with lots of noise and crackling, and my recorded voice was barely audible (even with volume turned up to max). I played with alsamixer for hours without being able to improve matters.

Things are worse now. I tried installing alsa-firmware, as indicated at SDB:Audio troubleshooting - openSUSE. I also tried updating alsa following instructions given at SDB:Alsa-update - openSUSE. I'm not sure which of these changes did it, but the result is that I can no longer record ANYTHING at all. I get absolutely nothing, not even the low quality noise and crackling I was getting before. It's as if there is no audio input at all.

Uninstalling alsa-firmware and reverting back to the older alsa version (1.0.20) didn't change a thing.

I'm running openSUSE 11.2, kernel 2.6.31.14-0.6-desktop, alsa 1.0.20. My sound card is a Creative X-Fi (by the way, yast cannot detect my card, another problem I have never solved).

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Multiple Sound Apps In ALSA?

Feb 3, 2010

I have stated that I use Pulse because ALSA fails to utilize more then one sound app. With ALSA if I watch a ..... vid in firerfox and soon open my music player the music player wont work unless I close off firefox. so I close off firefox but sometimes flash hangs the sound device hostage and I have to log out or kill something to make sure ALSA is freed up. So this is why I use pulse, it makes using more then one sound app at a time much easier, no hang ups at all. But there are a few apps that dont get along with pulse so there must be a way to configure alsa to use more then one sound app at a time. Do I have some compiling to do? Is it commandline? I am just curious what you anti pulse folks do to use more then one sound app at a time without the aid of pulse. it only mumbles about the differences between the multiple sound servers.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: 11.3 - Any Way To Increase Sound Level In Alsa

Sep 1, 2010

I have just installed OS 11.3 onto a lenovo desktop / Thinkcentre that previously had vista installed on it. With Opensuse I am having trouble getting much sound volume. With Vista the volume was fine but with Opensuse I have PCM, Master running pretty much on full. This gives me a respectable volume but I think there should really be more left in the tank from what I have it at. Is there any way to increase the gain in Alsa? The sound device shows in KDE as HDA Intel (AD198x) using xine backend.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: Microphone - Alsa - Pulse Audio - Can't Record Anything

Apr 8, 2011

I have some microphone problems. I can't record anything. (I'm using openSUSE 11.3)

My sound card was detected almost correctly (at least the chip-set was i think). I have an Asrock motherboard (k7upgrade880, with a Southbridge: VIA 8237 | Audio: CMedia CMI9761 6 channel AC'97.

I ran these commands so far with these results - while i was following the audio troubleshooting guide (SDB:Audio troubleshooting - openSUSE

But i have NO audio playback problems - movies, games, music all play well. And the Microphone guid has a broken link

I tried to change my 50-sound.conf file (i read it on a forum, I'm new to linux troubleshooting) from this:
options snd slots=snd-via82xx to this: options snd slots=snd-via82xx position_fix=1

But that did not work either. I did not get any sound with the last line.
