Hi,
has anyone tried linux-2.6.12 on FC4 with a SB Live! EMU10K1 and digital output yet? I still get sound from my headphones but I cannot get the digital connection to work :-(
I have digital in working on the Live Drive (Platinum), but don't know about digital out. See http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?module=emu10k1 Probably you must set in /etc/modprobe.conf: options snd-emu10k1 extin="0x3fc3" extout="0x1fcf"
EMU10K1 is the sound card that /I/ have! I've been using it with a digital speaker-and-subwoofer set since FC3.
In FC4, you have to /configure/ the Volume Controls. Right-click the speaker icon and select "Preferences." You will be shown a list of sliders that you can make visible to you when you open Volume Controls.
Look for a checkoff switch labeled "SB Live Digital Audio Output." Make that visible and then switch it on.
One thing I /love/ about the new ALSA system is that it remembers, from one session to the next, where I set my PCM slider and that digital output switch. So I don't have to turn them back on every time I reboot.
