| Post subject: | [Resolved] New Install - No Sound |
Using a chaintech av-710 w/ optical out as part of a new install. Everything else works great - just no sound  . Through lsmod and alsaconf, it looks as if it can't even find the chaintech card. The card was working as part of a previous myth install on the same box.
Not sure what else to check - any help? 
Thanks. Matt EDIT: Wrongly thought I was using my Chaintech - was actually using Nforce2 |

Sorry to bump the thread - but this is the last thing I need to do to have a working knoppmyth install .
The system does not see my chaintech card. lsmod | grep snd - shows nothing lspci - shows no audio Any ideas on how to tell the system that this card exists ?!

Make sure that you disable any onboard audio in the BIOS. Try moving to a differnet slot? |

I disabled the online audio of my nforce2 mb, but I did that AFTER I installed Knoppmyhth...Would that be the problem? Is there something I need to have the system look for audio cards again? Thanks for the help .

D'oh! I forgot I removed the Chaintech sound card and am using the onboard Nforce2 MCP-T SPDIF 
I re-enabled that and alsaconf sees it and aplay -l lists such... **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: nForce2 [NVidia nForce2], device 0: Intel ICH [NVidia nForce2] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: nForce2 [NVidia nForce2], device 2: Intel ICH - IEC958 [NVidia nForce2 - IEC958] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 ...but when I try to ... aplay -D iec958 /usr/share/games/tuxracer/sounds/tux_on_snow1.wav ...I get.... aplay: main:508: audio open error: No such device ...with lspci I get... 0000:00:05.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation nForce MultiMedia audio [Via VT82C686B] (rev a2) 0000:00:06.0 Multimedia audio controller: nVidia Corporation nForce2 AC97 Audio Controler (MCP) (rev a1) ...Should there be two listings? ...with lsmod I get.... snd_mixer_oss 17664 0 snd_intel8x0 29724 0 snd_ac97_codec 86560 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_bus 4096 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm 77700 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec snd_timer 22532 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 10376 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm snd 48612 5 snd_mixer_oss,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 9824 1 snd Any ideas why I cant get aplay or myth sound to work?

Everything works now - used a 'asound.conf' file from myth (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/m ... dif;#60343) for nforce2 and set myth to use ALSA:digital and it works great! Matt |
