[opensuse] audio 2.1 on leap 42.3
Hello, I wonder how to make apps in leap 42.3 use my Asus laptop 2.1 audio system (external sort of boomer) in kde setup, I have only the choice between 2.1 and hdmi 7.1. The first is default and the three speakers works perfectly on test but when I run firefox or vlc (vlc setup to 2.1), no sound goes through the boomer... I understand the audio track is certainly not 2.1, but usual devices do cope with this (my TV set sound 7.1 with stereo entry) any hint? thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

If you do have more than one device, in the Audio systray control you can select which card the application sends audio to (leftclick and select applications, or fire up the full settings interface). For me, it remembers such settings. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

on vlc, it is setup to 2.1 device, still no sound goes through the boomer I seems to remember that this used to works (but I use sound only once on a while), but don't remember any special setup jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

jdd Have a look in systemsettings - multimedia, set the boomer as the prefered audio output. Another option: install and use pavucontrol, mess around with the settings.

there no such option. the 2.1 output is selected and in the setup test window the boomer works perfectly, but in no other app

done, same settings than kde setup, right and left track but no boomer :-( thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

looked at alsamixer, the boomer seems to be there (bass speaker), but volume is at max and nothing is output and nothing change if I change this part :-( jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
