Post subject:  Via M1000 Sound Issues

I Have been playing with KnoppixMyth installations for a few days now... After Giving up on 4V5 (Kept Loosing the Keyboard and mouse after reboot) I moved to 4V4.1 Everything is fine but the Sound is Very Low and crackling (Sounds like its clipping heavily).. I have tried the ac97_quirk in modprobe but had no luck... Anyone have any ideas what I should be doing?

I have a basic EPIA M1000 board with 256 megs of ram.. (haven't thrown my PVR-350 inot the mix yet.. its still in its box) with a auto installation from 4V4.1

Any help would be appreciated

Time for some searching. I seem to remember seeing, either here or in the MythTV users mailing list, something about the loss of SPDIF capability being related to a change in the sound chip.

Hmmm... Here is something on volume control...

Aha! Here it is uspposedly direct from Chaintech. See post #6 in this thread:

==== EDIT ====
How the heck did this get over here from the thread about the Chaintech 7NIF2 it was posted on?!? Bizarro land! Can you say "message DB corruption"?

Thanks alot... I will fool around with the spdif but I have it disabled currently so I do not think that will get anywhere going down that path but I will look at it still there were a few additional things for me to look at in there aswell..

Well It seems it was more the sound device... switch from /dev/dsp to /dev/adsp and that cleared the sound up for the music player... Now to figure out how to apply this to everything that uses sound... Might try linkming /dev/dsp to /dev/adsp and see if I have any luck...

Yup that seems to work... The sound level is still a bit low.. gonna see what I can figure out on that now.
