Subject: why is card #2 being set to default?
Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2005 16:43:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5bdc1c8b0509011643199f3101@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi Alsa Developers,
Why is it that on my new AMD64 system the HDSP 9652 is listed as default?
lightning ~ # cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [CK804 ]: NFORCE - NVidia CK804
NVidia CK804 with ALC850 at 0xda103000, irq 185
1 [default ]: H-DSP - Hammerfall DSP
RME Hammerfall HDSP 9652 at 0xda000000, irq 209

On my previous systems I believe that card 0 has been default. Due
to clocking problems with the HDSP 9652 with OSS emulation I never run
OSS on the HDSP 9652 and want sound from general apps to go to the
NVidia on-board chip. The output of that chip is hooked to an input on
the HDSP which drives the main D/A so I get the best of both worlds -
NVidia does the low-end OSS and Jack runs all day on the HDSP 9652.
Except on this new system it seems to not work that way.
I do not use any .asoundrc files.
Technical stuff follows.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
