SO THIS PROVES THAT: in alsa 1.0.16 there is wrong routing for my board and its fixed in 1.0.18a. in alsa 1.0.18a: we discovered that the problem is in this version of alsa: i didn't have surround with speaker-test -c6 -Dsurround51 but i did have with speaker-test -c6 Dhw:0 ... then the person helping me discovered that it was a bug in softvol :) had to edit /usr/share/alsa/cards/HDA-Intel.conf and replacing the softvol part with another part he gave... guess what? speaker-test -c6 -Dsurround51 works perfect... ah another thing only model=5stack works for me and this is another bug since my system is 6stack. so......... SUMMARRY: in alsa 1.0.16 the bug is in wrong routing of jacks , must switch black jack into the blue jack and orange jack into the pink jack in alsa 1.0.18 its a bug in soft vol which prevens surround, /usr/share/alsa/cards/HDA-Intel.conf must be edited or downgrade alsa-lib to another version. i will upload my HDA-Intel.conf for people that has this big anoying bug. special thanks to Thingol for his great help :))) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
