Bug#609441: Opened additional bugs for each ALSA problem
Hi Lisandro,
Seeing your reply in [0], it's seems it's not a phonon problem.
Yes - that's saying everyone who has proved this bug,
from the ALSA-Team and the father of phonon.
But the Debian-Team has pushed it back to phonon.
Having pulse libs installed is normal, even if you don't have pulseaudio. Or
at least that's what I have in all my sistems and I have sound ;-)
Congratulations that you have sound! :-)
I only have correct sound on 1 of 6 PC's i have installed Squeeze.
And you can read many of similiar problems in the forums of Debian and
Ubuntu.
So this problem should be fixed ...
Where and how is the alsa.conf generated?
See<http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Asoundrc> and
<http://alsa.opensrc.org/.asoundrc>.
That's interesting.
But when i rename the alsa.conf to alsa.conf.bak and try to restart
ALSA, then ALSA is crying for it:
~$ /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart

What is going wrong in the generated configuration?
My experience tells me that you normally don't have an alsa.conf except if you
have more than one card or want to do something special. But the people of the
Why is the alsa.conf existent after a fresh installation of Squeeze with
only onboard-sound?
ALSA team are far more experienced than me in this, so believe them if they
say the contrary ;-)
I have posted the response of the ALSA-Team in the bug report above.
Kinds regards, Lisandro.

Karsten
