hi

firstly you have one internal device ...yes? and it needs 2 intel modules so your sudo can change to

 
--- Code: ---sudo /sbin/modprobe snd_usb_audio ignore_ctl_error=1 vid=0x08bb  pid=0x2902 index=0
sudo /sbin/modprobe snd_intel8x0m  index=1

--- End code ---

Now either that will enable the other intel module you replace with the other line but if you have only one sound device you can't give the modules different indexs....so you have 0 or 1 not 0 + 1 + 2

The reason I think its snd_intel8x0m....is because your ac97 depends on snd_intel8x0m mentioned first and then the other one

2) pls do not include all the other modprobes....they will load automatically.

try it and report back if any probs

3) Have you tried the line with  ignore_ctl_error=1?

or without any mention?

I don't think it will work with no =0 or 1 against it.

4) hiro.....you are right...............aplay -L and -l are in the setting up sound wiki so TaoTePuh.....check your lsmod to confirm you need less modprobe lines ...........then post the output of the wiki commands for aplay pls

5) colour connectors and spdif .....I am referring to your usb device not your internal device.

Each colour connector has a colour for us simple folk......

Your link did not show those colours but did say it had a spdif ok?

so describe them pls

6) Your goal..............with alsamixer......sorry hiro...........is to show a mixer setting for your spdif

that means I suggest you do not load any intel modules but try a number of permutations for your usb sound module with or without
ignore_ctl_error=1 or ignore_ctl_error=0 or not mentioned until we get that mixer setting pls

good luck

there is also the  device_setup that can be added to modprobe but I have no experience as I have no usb devices so not sure if you input a PID or a location reference

aus9:
hi

and revisting this parameter


--- Code: ---ignore_ctl_error - Ignore any USB-controller regarding mixer
                   interface (default: no)
--- End code ---

so if you do not have it in your modprobe (manually or bootlocal) the default behaviour is to be no.....buts it contra-positive ....meaning if we used

ignore_ctl_error=1 (meaning yes) or  ignore_ctl_error=yes

then we won't get access to the mixer settings that the usb may be attempting to supply.

so thats not what we want .

therefore leave this parameter not mentioned in your  modprobe command.

sudo /sbin/modprobe snd_usb_audio vid=0x08bb  pid=0x2902

No, I think there are two devices. One is for the modem "snd_intel8x0m" (m=modem ???).

You're right, it's possible without. When I have tested 3 days ago, I could not start alsa.

I have tested without success.

Sorry, but I still do not understand. The Box has 2 white connectors and 2 red connectors. Perhaps the following pictures helps:

Yes, I have tested all versions. But I get only one controller (PCM) in alsamixer (see picture above).

I've just tried pulseaudio. Thanks for the wiki article!

ahhh I should have looked at the diagram from your first link.

they appear to be rca audio plugs red for right and white for left speakers.

2) hmmm so we still can't get spdif I wonder if oss will find it?

3) Have you tried wine with the file from behringer?

assuming 32 bit kernel
