| Post subject: | Detect new sound card |
I just swapped out an old sound card for a newer one. The reason for the swap is to try digital out. How do I get Knoppmyth to detect my new card? I know when I swap capture cards the setup will detect them and rerun mythtv-setup but I'm not sure how I get the proper drivers loaded for the new sound card. I know I could just to a backup and reinstall Knoppmyth but I'm hoping for an easier solution. Thanks |

Thanks If it's a supported card, you should just be able to turn it off, plug the card in and boot. You may also need to run (as root) "twk_audio --implement digital" to adjust the myth settings and turn on the optical out's light if you didn't previoiusly have a digital card. Mike |

It's a Sound Blaster Live Value. I turned off the computer, removed the old card and plugged in the new one into the same PCI slot and rebooted. Now I don't have sound out of the analog jack. I was going to start with analog and make sure that was working before trying digital. Is there a command I can run to make sure it's been detected properly by linux? |

The following was all done remotely so I haven't had the chance to actually check to see if I'm getting sound. I'll do that tonight. Code: lspci | grep audio Code: 00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 08) Code: aplay -l Code: **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: Live [SBLive! Value [CT4832]], device 0: emu10k1 [ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback] Subdevices: 32/32 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Removed Subdevice line 1 to 31 above to save space Code: card 0: Live [SBLive! Value [CT4832]], device 2: emu10k1 efx [Multichannel Capture/PT Playback] Subdevices: 8/8 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 Removed Subdevice 1 to 7 above to save space Code: card 0: Live [SBLive! Value [CT4832]], device 3: emu10k1 [Multichannel Playback]
Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 |

My sound (analog) is now working. I tried a bunch of different things but I'm assuming alsaconf did the trick. Now I'm off to play with digital out. Thanks |
