Hi I have recently purchased a new motherboard gigabyte ga-m750sli-ds4 it has a nvidia / intel sound chip set NVidia [HDA NVidia], device 0: ALC882 Analog [ALC882 Analog] 00:07.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation Device 0774 (rev a1) Subsystem: Giga-byte Technology Device a002 Flags: 66MHz, fast devsel, IRQ 21 Memory at f8000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel I have tried to get the digital out working on this card, but it seems like there is a problem with the current kernel/deb package 2.6.26-1-amd64 From what I have found (on the ubunto forums) (i am running debian :) ) this has been fixed in 8.10 alpha 5 - which includes linux 2.6.27 (or .28). There has also been some mention that it is fixed in alsa 1.0.18rc3, we currently only have 1.0.17 (current stable). I have checked experimental but its not there either. Any one got any tip on who to compile up 1.0.18rc from the alsa site to work with 2.6.26-1-amd64 Or any one else got a fix for this ??? As a work around until the alsa stuff makes it into the debian repos, i found an old card sounds blaster audigy2 live Audigy2 [Audigy 2 Value [SB0400]], device 0: emu10k1 [ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback] 01:07.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB0400 Audigy2 Value Subsystem: Creative Labs Device 1001 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 17 I/O ports at 9400 [size=64] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: EMU10K1_Audigy Kernel modules: snd-emu10k1 I have plugged in the coax and run a speaker-test with alsa, I only get sound on the left and right speakers i get nothing on the other speaker - base center surround. I would like to have the default sounds come out the digital out, preferable with dmix, I had this before with /etc/asoundrc, but when I try the same thing with the sounds blaster it errors out saying there is only 2 channels. help Alex
