Subject: Trying to get surround sound working on my Dell L702x Laptop
Date: Sat, 27 Apr 2013 18:32:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <517C19B0.6000808@hefnerlabs.com> (raw)

I have a Dell L702x Laptop with an Intel Cougar Point HD Audio 
soundcard. In windows you are able to put it in analog surround sound 
mode - that is you have 3 3.5mm jacks running as output with 2 channels 
each. I am trying to replicate this behaviour so I can use the card as a 
6 channel output device with jack audio and ardour


(my setup works in stereo mode - now if i could just get the card to 
show 6 channels instead of just 2 - heck even 4 channels would be an 
improvement)
What do I need to do to make this work?

relevant sound routing:
soundcard > alsa > jack > aurdour  < pulse

  (I basically route all my sound through aurdor for effects processing 
- then out to the soundcard)



I'm running on Fedora 18
Dell XPS 17 L702x
i7 2670qm
16GB ram
265GB ssd
