I don't have an answer for your audio problems, but just as some encouragement I am running this motherboard just fine with sound, no problem everything works on reboot.

I had initial trouble that was fixed by running alsaconf and changing /dev/dsp in setup. I didn't have a /etc/asound.conf to begin with so don't know if that is part of the trouble.

I'd be happy to dump whatever info might be useful from my system.

Hey mlbuser,

I saw tjc helping you through your troubles in that other thread. Initially, in that thread you showed that you did't have /dev/dsp. Did /dev/dsp appear after you ran alsaconf? It didn't for me. Are you using the on-board audio? I didn't previously have a /etc/asound.conf either.

This really sounds like you aren't loading the module or something in that area. That was a big part of mlbuser's fix. First things first, let's see if Linux sees the hardware. Do the following an report the results here:
Code:
lspci | grep -i multimedia

results of
Code:
lspci | grep -i multimedia

gives
Code:
04:09.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)


which sounds like my tuner card.

I just did lspci without a grep and found
Code:
00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)

That sounds like it.

BTW lsmod | grep snd results in
Code:
snd_hda_intel          19096  0
snd_hda_codec         159232  1 snd_hda_intel
snd_pcm                69380  2 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec
snd_timer              22404  1 snd_pcm
snd                    47588  4 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer
soundcore              11360  1 snd
snd_page_alloc         11784  2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm

I did a search for that device and found this:

For whatever reason, I found that I had to modprobe snd-hda-codec, wait a few seconds, and then modprobe snd-hda-intel. Without a delay, or loading snd-hda-intel first, seems to hang.

:D

By Following http://forum.freespire.org/archive/index.php/t-2239.html I changed my /etc/modprobe.d/sound from
Code:
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0

to
Code:
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 model=asus

Now /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer show up after a reboot and I can get sound in MythTV.

Thanks, tjc. I really appreciate the help.

:cry:

After another reboot, I lost my /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer. Now I'm back to square one. Tried to re-run alsaconf and add back the fix into /etc/modprobe.d/sound and still can't my dev's back. ????

It looks like this is a problem with debian sid itself. I added
Code:
 include /etc/modprobe.d
to /etc/modprobe.conf and /dev/dsp shows up on reboot.

Thanks diblasio. That worked for me. Right before you posted I noticed a /dev/.static/dev/dsp and if I would
Code:
play [some wav file] -d /dev/.static/dev/dsp

then /dev/dsp would get created (by udev?). Editing /etc/modprobe.conf definitely makes it permanent. Do any udev experts know if there is a more proper/elegant solution?

Finally got around to doing the suggested fix and things are now working great.

Code:
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel index=0

to
Code:
alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 model=asus


Thanks for all the help and the fix.[/code]
