Alsa, emu10k1 and flash
 
Eversince I installed the 2.4.22 kernel on my Slack 9 system the module for my Audigy 2 soundcard doesn't work anymore. I tried both the stock emu10k1 module and the one from opensource.creative.com. In both cases "modprobe emu10k1" returned no errors, but I didn't have sound either.
So I installed Alsa and the Alsa snd-emu10k1 module. Now everything works, except for one annoying thing: I don't have sound in Flash-movies. Before, I was using the stock emu10k1 module and everything worked great. Does anyone have any bright ideas on this?

Thanks in advance!

Post your /etc/emu10k1.conf file

Don't have one... Could it be you just isolated the problem?

I haven't seen mention of such a file in any of the docs I've read, by the way.

You will have to re-install alsa and video drivers when upgrading a kernel.

djbanaan 09-05-2003 03:37 PM

I did that. I recompiled the Alsa driver, Alsa lib and my Nvidia driver. It all works accept for that little thingy I stated in my post...

I use the CVS version of alsa, so maybe my installation is different. My file:
Code:

# Set your card type on the next line so that loading the
# kernel module works correctly.
#
# Accepted values are 'emu' and 'audigy'
#  use 'audigy' if you have an audigy based sound card,
#  otherwise use 'emu'
#
# Note: you should only have to set this if:
#    (1) the auto-detect script fails
#        - no lspci support
#        - no /proc/pci support
#        - the kernel just plain doesn't like you
#    (2) you like to set everything
CARD_TYPE="audigy"

##
## This file is used to configure emu10k1's emu-script
##

CARD_IS_5_1=no
USE_DIGITAL_OUTPUT=no
ENABLE_TONE_CONTROL=yes

# Note, it's safe to say yes to the next option even if you're not going
# to use it. When this option is enabled, the driver can autodetects AC3
# data and behaves normally with normal audio.
# (Saying yes causes some of the soundcard's resourses to be used up)
AC3PASSTHROUGH=yes

# Change this to yes to enable the Livedrive midi port and IR remote
# control.
ENABLE_LIVEDRIVE_IR=no

# Most Lives have their analog front signals inverted. If you have
# problems with your setup (low bass), try changing this to 'yes'. (This
# option has no effect with digital setups)
INVERT_REAR=no

#Multichannel playback (for 4 - 6 channel setups)
MULTICHANNEL=yes

# On 5.1 cards in multichannel mode, should the multichannel data be fed
# to the sub as well?  You probably don't want this if you have a
# speaker set like the DTT2200 which already feeds all channels to the
# sub in hardware.
ROUTE_ALL_TO_SUB=no

# By default, the front analog channels have a +12dB boost applied to
# them by the AC'97 mixer. If you encounter clipping, or find that the
# volume of the front speakers is too high in a multichannel setup, try
# changing this to 'no'.
ANALOG_FRONT_BOOST=yes



# Surround
##################

# Some wavs, or mp3 are surround sound encoded the next two
# options can be used to decode these in hardware.
# (select on or the other, not both)

# passive matrix surround decoder
SURROUND=yes

# Active matrix surround decoder
PROLOGIC=no


# Extra Inputs
#################

## This connector is mounted on the card itself
ENABLE_CD_Spdif=yes  # Volume control is 'Digital1' in aumix/gmix/kmix

# The next four inputs are found on Livedrives, some of these may also
# be inputs on the older add-on daughter cards.

ENABLE_LINE2_MIC2=no    # Volume control is 'Line2'

I just did some additional testing. If I log in as root and try to watch a flash movie, I do have sound. So I guess I've got some kind of permissions issue. Now to find out where :confused:

Thanks a bunch for your time!

fancypiper 09-05-2003 05:04 PM

/dev/dsp?

djbanaan 09-05-2003 05:07 PM

Yeps, you're right! I was already changing it when I read your post :D

Thanks again for your time!
