CreativeAudioPCI128+ALSA - No midi playback?
 
Hi,
I've got a cheapo Creative AudioPCI 128 soundcard with ALSA es1371 driver - everything works well, even soundserver-less software mixing with dmix. But when I try to play some MIDI files or virtual piano I can't hear anything. I get no error, on the screen everything looks well, but - no sound. All controls have been unmuted with alsamixer (except IEC958 SPDIF output, which doesn't exist at all :D ). What's wrong?

Here's my /etc/asound.conf file:

Code:

pcm.my_card {
  type hw
  card 0
  mmap_emulation true
}

pcm.dmixed {
  type dmix
  ipc_key 1024
  slave {
    pcm "my_card"
#  rate 48000
#  period_size 512
  }
}

ctl.asymed {
  type hw
  card 0
}

pcm.dsnooped {
  type dsnoop
  ipc_key 2048
  slave {
    pcm "my_card"
#  rate 48000
#  period_size 128
  }
}

pcm.asymed {
  type asym
  playback.pcm "dmixed"
  capture.pcm "dsnooped"
}

pcm.pasymed {
  type plug
  slave.pcm "asymed"
}

pcm.dsp0 {
  type plug
  slave.pcm "asymed"
}

pcm.!default {
  type plug
  slave.pcm "asymed"
}



ctl.!default {
  type hw
  card 0
}

there's something wrong with the software synthesizer

however, do I need one at all?
