Re: emu10k1 troubles...
I now have sound (kind of) I can play mp3s, wav's and I get sound from DVD's
but no sound from cd's or through my WinTV card. Any idea about this? I
cna't figure out what all the settings on alsamixer are for. I no befor when
I first got sound working with alsa0.5x and sblive value cd's and tv card
were first to work now it is the other way around. And what about Exound
does it not work with Alsa 0.9betaX?
Thanks for any more help
Brad
