I see occasional messages on the alsa lists for this on various hardware, as well as occasional messages about patches fixing it for certain hardware. It usually means that there is a configuration error in the driver. You should run the alsa-info.sh script so you identify http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-driver.git;a=blob_plain;f=utils/alsa-info.sh your hardware correctly (or aplay -l which is easier) and then do a web search with your alsa driver, card, and headphone. There are fixes going into the alsa drivers all the time so you might want to pick up the latest driver snapshot, compile it, and load the module for your card to see if it fixes the problem. If you don't find a fix and you have the programming chops, you could fix the driver and submit a patch. There used to be links to tarball snapshots by Takashi Iwai of the alsa packages on the alsa website, but I don't see them anymore. There is a link to the git repository under developers and the latest stable release. http://alsa-project.org/ -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
