Alsaconf Audio change output device card
« on: February 20, 2014, 07:16:08 PM »
Hi all,
i'm a newbie of all linux distribution.
I have a little problem with TinyCore Pluse, internal sound card not work  :'(
The issue is that my laptop have two sound card:
1) HDMI Output Radeon
2) Hudson Azalia Controller sound card

I download ALSA and alsaconf extention, execute alsaconf and it found sound card "Hudson Azalia Controller",but  the primary output is always "HDMI Output Radeon".
I run speaker-test but there is no sound.

I'm sure sound card works fine and exist linux driver, because with other linux distribution works fine.
can anybody help me?

rizla

Hi rizla
The lower right window in your screen shot shows the master volume is at -65dB which is all the way down.

Not only that - it's actually muted   :o

Hi all,
Yesterday, I also thought it was the fact of being mute.
But I unlocked the mute and put all parameters to the maximum, not works.

I think it is always set as the primary output HDMI and I can not change it to Hudson Azalia.

If you look at the bottom left of the image shows the "ALSA mixer GUI" on HDMI device, and I can not change it to Azalia.
Addition Azalia is not  HDMI output, but it is the motherboard sound card..

How can I change the primary sound output towards Azalia?


thank you for response  :)

It's probably a good idea to visit the official alsasound site and check out the support resources there.

Another possible solution is to use pulseaudio/pavucontrol - I hesitate to suggest this is it is a bunch of bloat and complication, but it does make it easy to switch between sound sources and outputs
