Hi all I was playing a dvd in xine and outputting it as SPDIF to my surround decoder. The dvd (rental) is gone beyond use and caused xine to crash. I killed xine, waited five minutes for the system to release its grasp on the dvd player, then ejected it. Now, it seems like the system is locked in passtrhu mode and every setting I tried on the alsamixer failed to bring back my normal sound. For information, I use a coaxial cable from my soundcard's digital out to my surround decoder. On normal operation, the decoder detects the stereo signal and uses it, and when playing films, it detects the DOLBY signal and acts accordingly. I tried a system restart to no avail, and the only remotly usefull reference to this same problem I found with google, solved itself magically after three days. Being an audio junkie, I cannot live without my music for three days so please help me with this one. O, and believe it or not, when I put another dvd in, the sound is there in 5.1. But nothing else is working. WIth kind regards Andy -- Registered Linux User Number 379093 Now listening to [silence] amaroK::the Coolest Media Player in the known Universe!
