Errr, re-reading again your mail, is there actually an issue in one of these cases?
There is an issue if the observed behavior differ from the intended one. As I am not sure of the intended behavior I wrote: "this behavior looks slightly weird" (to me, maybe not to others).
Didier Spaier, le ven. 06 sept. 2019 15:58:53 +0200, a ecrit:tested on both a qemu VM with 1, 2 and 3 soundcards on on bare metal with a HDA Intel sound card. It all cases it looks like the installer first skips the first soundcard probed, whichever it be, displaying: Waiting for 1 more seconds for any other cards...What makes you think that it "skips the first soundcard"?
See attached pic. In this case the virtual sound cards were chosen with this option: -soundhw es1370,ac97 So having an Intel HDA among the cards or not doesn't change the behavior. It first displays: Waiting for 1 more seconds for any other card... Having not looked at the script this time, I don't know if it: 1. loops to check that there is only one sound cards before using it 2. skip the first one found not intentionally at the beginning of the loop. Anyway, the aforementioned message looks confusing, even if not spoken.
but then it always find a sound card to use: _ without asking if there is only one,Do you mean "without asking whether there is only one" (i.e. it should have asked), or "without asking when there is only one" (which is expected)?
"without asking when there is only one" (which is expected).
So, although this behavior looks slightly weird,Which behavior exactly?
Displaying a line that could make the user think that something unexpected happened (and anyway the script should know already that there is only one card if I understand well). Cheers, Didier
