I have a "Sound Blaster Live! 24 bit 7.1" soundcard. I am happily reporting that analog output to two channels (simple stereo) is fully working (at least for me) with the ca0106 (audigyls) driver. However, I could not get it to work in 6 channels. I looked into the code and got this from the main.c: /* hardware definition */ static snd_pcm_hardware_t snd_ca0106_playback_hw = { ... .channels_min = 2, //1, .channels_max = 2, //6, .buffer_bytes_max = (32*1024), .period_bytes_min = 64, .period_bytes_max = (16*1024), .periods_min = 2, .periods_max = 8, .fifo_size = 0, }; Hmm. Why is the comment for .channels_min and .channels_max? [Please note that I definetly not kernel developer] I tried to change them to 1 and 6. No success. In this case, when I try to play anything in _not_ 2 channels it's seems too slow (the whole box, and the sound too) and distorted. I found out ( ;) ), that I should increase the .period_bytes_{min,max} too. I tried as I found in other driver, but no success so far. So.. the question is: does anyone have a ca0106 driver which works for 5.1 (I don't care with 7.1), or such just does not exists at all? Thank you all, and please, do not forgot to Cc: me, as I am not subscribed to this list!
