Summary: NVIDIA CK8 ALC655 SPDIF passthrough
Description:
We're using a motherboard with nVidia nforce2IGP chipset, and the sound
device on this board is NVidia CK8, Realtek ALC655 rev 0. The motherboard
is MSI K7N2GM2, and SPDIF passthrough works fine on Windows XP with stock
realtek drivers.
On Linux, I'm using the latest ALSA CVS (29.04.2005.) on a 2.6.10-ac12
kernel.
I've been able to make a 2 channel pre-decoded SPDIF output work by using
the hw:0,2 device. If I use the default device, there is no sound on
SPDIF, regardless of the SPDIF related controls in mixer. The controls in
the mixer are:
However, I'm having trouble with AC3 passthrough, I'm using ac3dec -C from
alsa-tools CVS, and I get no sound.
I'm attaching the archive with the output of iecset and
/proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/* files during the ac3dec run, and when
idle.
Maybe the fact that decoded SPDIF output is not working until I pass it
through the hw:0,2 has something to do with this, how can I make ac3dec -C
use hw:0,2?

Bug 1094, which discusses the nForce4 (CK804 chipset with ALC850) was
marked as a dupe of this one, so I'll post here regarding the nForce4.
What information/equipment is required to get the nForce4 S/PDIF working
in ALSA? Does the right ALSA developer have an nForce4 motherboard? If
not, maybe one of us can lend a spare board. If there's anything any of
us nForce4 users can do to help get support in ALSA, please let us know.
I've tried the latest stable ALSA (1.0.9/1.0.9a as of this writing) and
can only get analog sound working on my MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum. I've also
tried it on a Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9 board with the same results.

I wanted to add that SPDIF works on nForce4 using ALSA 1.0.6. Apparently,
there has been a regression on nForce4 between 1.0.6 and 1.0.9/1.0.9a.
Here are the steps I took to verify that it worked. You may just need to
install ALSA 1.0.6 to test it, but here's everything I did.
1) Install KnoppMyth R5A12 (which includes ALSA 1.0.6).
2) connect your nForce4 motherboard's coaxial S/PDIF output to your
receiver's coaxial digital audio in connector
3) run xine and configure audio for Pass Through
4) using xine, play a ripped DVD with an AC3 soundtrack
This works with the Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9 and the MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum.
What other information can I provide in order to get nForce4 working again
in ALSA?

Interesting. First of all, the SPDIF support on nForce is partial, AFAIK.
Since the SPDIF status bits are not set up correctly on nForce, many
digital receivers can't accept the AC3 signals. But the PCM over SPDIF
seems working. This was the last state I tested (quite ago).
Now, you reported that there is a regression in another point. OK, this
has to be fixed. Could you elaborate what did you downgrade? The
combination of 1.0.6 driver + 1.0.9 lib works, or vice versa?
For checking, use ac3dec (with -C option) in alsa-utils to reduce other
unknown factors.
If the above combinations don't work, get /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/*
(might be a different directory name in 1.0.6) _during_ ac3 playback on
1.0.6 and 1.0.9 environment to compare.

the hw:0,2 device. If I use the default device, there is no sound on
SPDIF, regardless of the SPDIF related controls in mixer. The controls in
the mixer are:
However, I'm having trouble with AC3 passthrough, I'm using ac3dec -C from
alsa-tools CVS, and I get no sound.
I'm attaching the archive with the output of iecset and
/proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/* files during the ac3dec run, and when
idle.
Maybe the fact that decoded SPDIF output is not working until I pass it
through the hw:0,2 has something to do with this, how can I make ac3dec -C
use hw:0,2?

Interesting. First of all, the SPDIF support on nForce is partial, AFAIK.
Since the SPDIF status bits are not set up correctly on nForce, many
digital receivers can't accept the AC3 signals. But the PCM over SPDIF
seems working. This was the last state I tested (quite ago).
Now, you reported that there is a regression in another point. OK, this
has to be fixed. Could you elaborate what did you downgrade? The
combination of 1.0.6 driver + 1.0.9 lib works, or vice versa?
For checking, use ac3dec (with -C option) in alsa-utils to reduce other
unknown factors.
If the above combinations don't work, get /proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/*
(might be a different directory name in 1.0.6) _during_ ac3 playback on
1.0.6 and 1.0.9 environment to compare.

Thanks very much for responding, Tiwai. I accept that S/PDIF with nForce
is only partially covered, but if the latest driver worked as well as the
one from R5A12, it would benefit a lot of people.
I need to amend the version of ALSA I said was used in R5A12. It looks
like the utilities are from 1.0.6, but I took a close look at the
intel8x0.c kernel module - it's actually CVS version 1.160 with 7 lines of
patches applied. (If you want to see the diffs, please specify the diff
parameters you prefer so that I format them correctly.) In order to
provide you with the details on where exactly the regression happens, I
was going to try building different versions of the intel8x0.c kernel
module from 1.160 up and seeing if they made S/PDIF stop working.
Technically, I didn't downgrade anything in R5A12, since R5A12 uses an
older version of ALSA. By contrast, R5A16 uses (I think) ALSA 1.0.8.
You ask about the version of alsa-lib. KnoppMyth R5A12 uses Debian, and
the distro's maintainer installed the non-driver parts of ALSA as binaries
via apt-get. Here's the result of a query:
ii alsa-base 1.0.6a-11 ALSA driver configuration files
ii alsa-headers 1.0.6a-11 transitional package that can be safely
remo
rc alsa-modules-2 1.0.5a-1+10.00 Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
(drivers)
ii alsa-source 1.0.6a-11 ALSA driver sources
ii alsa-utils 1.0.6-4 ALSA utilities
I wanted to point out that there are additional steps in my previous list
on getting digital audio working. I had automated these steps and
forgotten about them:
3.5) Go here http://www.mythtv.info/moin.cgi/DigitalSoundHowTo and copy
the text under "The (I hope it's the definitive) .asoundrc for nForce2 and
nForce4" into /etc/asound.conf
3.6) Edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base to add this line:
options snd-pcm-oss adsp_map=2
I'll try to gather more data points for you. I'll have to set up a
separate installation of R5A16, which uses newer versions of everything,
and try more combinations of things as well as getting you that data
during AC3 playback.

I was playing AVI files with mplayer and suddenly I got sound. Mplayer is
set to use SDL on my system. So there must be a certain combination of
factors that work.
The audio in the AVI was mp3, Mplayer says this:
-------
AF_pre: af format: 2 bps, 2 ch, 48000 hz, little endian signed int
AF_pre: 48000Hz 2ch Signed 16-bit (Little-Endian)
[AO SDL] Samplerate: 48000Hz Channels: Stereo Format Signed 16-bit
(Little-Endian)
-------
So maybe 48Khz works?

Gotta fix this bug, analog out on my card seriously sucks the DAC in my
Marantz is much nicer.
Anyway, my card apparently has a Realtek ALC650, there's specs here
including registers. My board has Nforce 5 but the codec is on a seperate
card (Fatal1ty board).

Yes, only 48kHz works on nForce SPDIF, indeed. That is, the non-audio
stream in other rates won't work.
As mentioned, the driver works partially. It may work with the receiver
which accepts AC3 stream even without SPDIF non-audio status bit by
checking the preamble. But, the receivers strictly checking the non-audio
bit don't work.
It seems that the nForce doesn't use AC97 chip for transmitting SPDIF
signals but directly drives from the nforce core. Thus, checking the
datasheet of the ac97 codec chip won't help...

gilesjuk - 06-26-05 13:18
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But in my case the Realtek chip is on a seperate card with the SPDIF and
audio ports. Surely the audio data gets written to this chip and then
routed to the outputs depending on how the registers are set?
This is my board:
http://www.abit-usa.com/products/mb/products.php?categories=1&model=262
Excuse my ignorance, but how is the Nforce chipset responsible for the

Summary: NVIDIA CK8 ALC655 SPDIF passthrough
Description:
We're using a motherboard with nVidia nforce2IGP chipset, and the sound
device on this board is NVidia CK8, Realtek ALC655 rev 0. The motherboard
is MSI K7N2GM2, and SPDIF passthrough works fine on Windows XP with stock
realtek drivers.
On Linux, I'm using the latest ALSA CVS (29.04.2005.) on a 2.6.10-ac12
kernel.
I've been able to make a 2 channel pre-decoded SPDIF output work by using
the hw:0,2 device. If I use the default device, there is no sound on
SPDIF, regardless of the SPDIF related controls in mixer. The controls in
the mixer are:
However, I'm having trouble with AC3 passthrough, I'm using ac3dec -C from
alsa-tools CVS, and I get no sound.
I'm attaching the archive with the output of iecset and
/proc/asound/card0/codec97#0/* files during the ac3dec run, and when
idle.
Maybe the fact that decoded SPDIF output is not working until I pass it
through the hw:0,2 has something to do with this, how can I make ac3dec -C
use hw:0,2?

gilesjuk - 06-26-05 13:19
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But in my case the Realtek chip is on a seperate card with the SPDIF and
audio ports. Surely the audio data gets written to this chip and then
routed to the outputs depending on how the registers are set?
This is my board:
"http://www.abit-usa.com/products/mb/products.php?categories=1&model=262"
Excuse my ignorance, but how is the Nforce chipset responsible for the
audio when it's an external codec being used?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
tiwai - 06-27-05 16:56
----------------------------------------------------------------------
nforce chip is the DMA engine and controls the connected ac97 chip(s).
AC97 chip only converts the signal (that's why called "codec"), and isn't
responsible for DMA.
Although AC97 can support SPDIF, but some onboard controller chips don't
require AC97 for SPDIF I/O but do by themselves, e.g. ATIIXP and ALI5455.

arts will then work fine.
