i think i am getting there but still need more help!

What exactly are you trying to do?
Could you post the result of: Code:
lspci -k | grep -A3 -i audio |
here are the results
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 05) Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device a002 Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 1 (rev b5) when i start up i want it to use the digital output, card 0 device 1 here is the result of aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC889 Analog [ALC889 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 1: ALC889 Digital [ALC889 Digital] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 |
as per link
show us the output to cat /proc/asound/pcm but it looks like it should be the same as your aplay as in hw:0,3 so copy and paste this into a terminal logged in as a local user Code:
echo "pcm.!default { if you still have issues consider installing pulseaudio which allows on-the-swapping of output devices good luck |
pcm output
00-00: ALC889 Analog : ALC889 Analog : playback 1 : capture 1 00-01: ALC889 Digital : ALC889 Digital : playback 1 00-02: ALC889 Alt Analog : ALC889 Alt Analog : capture 2 00-03: HDMI 0 : HDMI 0 : playback 1 |
yep looks good card 0 device 3---sorry for not reading post 3
when you create the (dot).asoundrc do a logout login or a full reboot before playing test sound if you don't like commands use your text editor so contents are pcm.!default { type hw card 0 device3 } save as .asoundrc (relative to your /home/pete good luck |
