sound with usb speakers

pomelo · 02-04-2006, 01:12 PM

I used the command #modprobe snd-usb-audio to make my philips radio connected trough usb work and play the sound , but after rebooting , with the same command it didn't work anymore .

how come it only worked once ? the first time it worked ?

Are conflicting drivers getting loaded automatically at boot?
Have a look at lsmod output right after boot, and if there are other drivers loaded then rmmod them, and try again. Also, an error message instead of just "it didn't work" would be helpful...

thanks for your help
there is no error message, the other speakers connected to my pc keep playing the sound , while i want my usb radio to play them .

i will try to rmmod some modules

maybe the problem is that when i start playing sound it always uses snd-hda-intel but it has to use snd-usb-audio , rmmod snd-hda-intel doesnt work it out because the module is loaded every time sounds starts to play .

did some rmmod and modprobe but can't really understand why it works now

Well, like I say the two modules are probably conflicting/fighting over control of your soundcard.
