Summary:                    Audigy 4 (bulk, non-Pro) unsupported (patch
included)
Description: 
I recently bought me a Creative Audigy 4 and was surprised it didn't work
at all ... I noticed it wasn't detected and made it detectable and copied
the settings from Audigy 4 Pro. I have to click the "Audigy Analog/Digital
Output switch" switch to make it work. Front/Center, Mic works, however I
have no idea about wether SPDIF is ok or not (I have no devices). It might
be that a lot of functionality is missing still but it's a start.

First, output of "$ lspci -vn | grep -1 0401"
0000:02:09.0 0401: 1102:0008
        Subsystem: 1102:1021

Then, using "modprobe emu10k1 sumsystem=xxxxxx" does not work at all for
me, doesn't get the interrupt up and errors about probe failing.

So I added did this to my kernel sound/pci/emu10k1/emu10k1_main.c:

	{.vendor = 0x1102, .device = 0x0008, .subsystem = 0x10211102,
	 .driver = "Audigy2", .name = "Audigy 4 [A400?]", 
	 .id = "Audigy2",
	 .emu10k2_chip = 1,
	 .ca0102_chip = 1,
	 /*.ca0151_chip = 1, */
	 /*.spk71 = 1,	*/
	 /*.spdif_bug = 1,*/
	 .ac97_chip = 1} ,

I left those commented out as I've tried the options and noticed no
difference in operation. Also, I don't know the SB0xxx model (can't remove
the card and look at it at the moment either).

Just before Christmas I bought what seems to be a bulk version of Audigy 4
(named "SB Audigy 4 OEM" at www.czechcomputer.cz). The DSP is CA0108-IATLF
(and not CA10300-IAT as reported by BerndBuechs and as jcdutton found on
the Creative website), but the rest is the same: DAC is Phillips 1361T,
ADC is CirrusLogic CS4382-KQZ ADC and AC97 is SigmaTel STAC9750.

Photographs of the card (2-4MB files, beware) can be found at

I am running Ubuntu 5.10 with an almost vanilla 2.6.12 kernel (V4L
subsystem taken from V4L CVS, ALSA is unpatched, version 1.0.9). I have
on-board AC97 and this Audigy, audigy being indexed as the first one and
connected to a 5.1 analog sound system. This combinaction works nice under
Win XP. Under Linux, the only thing that I can make my Audigy to do is to
click - by switching the digital/analog output. The on-board AC97 seems to
work. The Audigy is being detected as "Audigy 2 Value [Unknown]", exactly
as khampf mentions in the post from 24th November.

I am now going to get the last version of ALSA, try to replace the kernel
modules with the newer ones without crippling everything and report if the
card works or not.

Closed. Seems to be working fine for everyone now.
