No sound with ca0106

micder · 01-08-2007, 11:49 AM

Install of Suse-10.2 was OK!
The correct sound module ca0106 is loaded.
Sound is turned up with alsamixer
However I have no sound.
Yast tells me that SB0410 SBLive! 24-bit is configured as soundcard 0.

/etc/alsa.d/udev-soundfont reads:

Code:

CARD=${DEVNAME##/dev/snd/hwC}
CARD=${CARD%%D2}

case $PHYSDEVDRIVER in
EMU10K1_Audigy)
  echo -en "\xf0\x00\x20\x21\x61\x00\x00\x00\x7f\x00\xf7" > /dev/snd/midiC${CARD}D1
  /etc/alsa.d/load-soundfont $CARD default.bnk default.sf2
  ;;
sbawe)
  /etc/alsa.d/load-soundfont $CARD default.bnk default.sf2 default.sbk gu11-rom.sf2 GU11-ROM.SF2
  ;;
esac

exit 0

Is this causing the problem?
My card is definitely not an emu10k1!
Any idea, hint is much appreciated

Hi,

try to run "alsaconfig" as root and select ca0106 - Creative Labs SB Audigy. It will reinitialize sound card.

Check also content of your ~/.asoundrc file. There might be also pitfalls.

Check if sound device is not blocked for example with arts, esound or other sound server.

Hi,

alsaconf configured ca0106 and played a sound.
As root I can play audio-CD's, not as user.
Somewhere a permission problem?
I'm in the audio group.

Booted Suse again and sound was on.
Did an update, but as far as i know there was no alsa involved.
In Yast the card SB0410 SBLive! 24-bit is shown as not configured.
I'll leave it as such.
Am glad i have sound, but hate mysteries.
