Sound Not Working (Quirky Xerus 8.0 final) |
|
Sorry, this should have gone in the Quirky Xerus 8.0 final section. It's been a while since I've used the forum. I'm not sure how to move it there...
I have been unable to get the sound working. I was running Quirky live from a flash drive. Here are my specs:
Sound Card: Advanced Micro Devices
===========================================================

Not sure if the mods may want to merge this into the main thread or leave it as a standalone.
Looks to me like your HDMI card is set as the default and that probably is not the one you are listening to. In other words, you DO have sound but it is not coming out of the socket you have anything connected to.
What you need to do (probably) is set the other card (the "generic" one showing there as card 1) as the default so that one with analogue output becomes card 0.
I haven't looked at Quirky Xerus yet, but if it has Multiple Sound Card Wizard you could try running that.

Thanks Oscartalks. I believe I already tried the Multiple Sound Card Wizard with no luck. I will give it another go and report back.
Update:
I tried all of the sound card options for multiple sound cards. I tried them without rebooting, and then I tried them all again with rebooting after each change. Still no luck.
I am posting this from Quirky and everything else is running nicely. Too bad about the sound.

Hi Scabz,
I have used manual editing of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf quite a lot myself in the past and I thought of mentioning it, but then I remembered that I have seen cases where the sound drivers are 2 instances of snd-hda-intel, one for hdmi and the other for the analogue card and in that case you can't use that method because they don't have different names.
@ BuddhaDog
Have a look in /proc/asound/modules to see what sound modules are loaded. Maybe post the names here.

The mods can't "merge" this thread into another thread. Maybe John Murga can. If I had seen the OP, I'd have locked the thread, but it's too late now.

Thanks for the tip Scabz. I will take a look at that.
@OscarTalks - Here is the content of '/proc/asound/modules':
0 snd_hda_intel
1 snd_usb_audio
2 snd_hda_intel

As I suspected you have 2 instances of snd_hda_intel.
What have you got that is using sound via a usb port?
The snd_usb_audio module is not normally allowed to be the default anyway.
If you are not using the hdmi port and the system is auto-detecting it and setting it as the default you may be able to solve this by turning it off in the bios.

Add these lines to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
Quote: |
options snd-hda-intel id=PCH,HDMI index=0,1
options snd-hda-intel-hdmi index=-2
options snd-hda-codec-hdmi index=-2

Thanks for that info. I will look at that. I think I have a camera plugged into the usb port. I have dual monitors and one of them is using the hdmi port (which brings up another issue that I will address elsewhere, configuring dual monitors). At work now so I will report back tomorrow most likely.

Cool, thanks for this! I will try it when I get home.

I'm not sure if that will work, just try it. Those lines were added to woof ce recently.
If it doesn't work, do this (do it anyway, i'd like to see the output):
and paste here the output
It looks like an ati driver is loaded. If the driver is snd-hda-codec-atihdmi, then you could also add
Quote: | options snd-hda-codec-atihdmi index=-2 |
But first see if it works without that line.

Ok, I added the lines to the alsa-base.conf file. I was able to get the puppy barking by selecting the following (only available option for volume control is PCM which doesn't work):

Ok, so is sound working now with that configuration?
Also the output of this command is very important:
Code: | cat /proc/asound/pcm |

Ok, rebooted into Puppy and now it's telling me that no sound card can be found. I have 3 hard drives with different distros installed, I rebooted again in Linux Mint 17. I ran this from Linux Mint (sound is working fine in Mint). Code: | $ lsmod | grep snd

I just wanted to have a sanity check and make sure it wasn't my sound card. Jumping back to Puppy now.
Here is the output of cat /proc/asound/pcm
Code: | # cat /proc/asound/pcm
00-03: HDMI 0 : HDMI 0 : playback 1
00-07: HDMI 1 : HDMI 1 : playback 1
01-00: USB Audio : USB Audio : capture 1
