I'm about to pulling my hair out, if this has already been asked, I appologize, since my frustration is too great!!

Is there a way to effectively set sofware mixing with this card and ALSA??

Specificly, I want to be able to have GAIM and XMSS coexisting just fine, and I want to be able to play on-line games with TeamSpeak.


Thanks.

Yes I have this same problem, like I can play music in XMMS.. Then close it after that my sound stops working I gotta restart alsasound to make it work again. I dunno wtf it is my card is a Chaintech AV-710 (ENVY24HT-S)

Code:

  Upon loading the driver I get this in dmesg:
      EcX / # dmesg | grep ice
      [ 3785.250891] ice1724: Invalid EEPROM version 1

  EcX / # cat /proc/asound/cards
  0 [AV710          ]: ICE1724 - Chaintech AV-710
                             Chaintech AV-710 at 0xa000, irq 16


Code:

And checking amixer:

I use an m-audio delta audiophile, so envy24 too, and use following ~/.asoundrc

Code:
# our ICE1712 dmix:
pcm.ossmix {
    type dmix
    ipc_key 1024
    slave {
    pcm "hw:0,0"
        period_time 0
        period_size 1024
        buffer_size 4096 # buffer size < 6653, but pow(x, 2)
        rate 44100 # we want to play CDs only
    }
    bindings {
        0 0
        1 1
    }
}
# Everything shall be dmixed, so redefine "default":
pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "ossmix"
}
# OSS via aoss should d(mix)stroyed:
pcm.dsp {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "ossmix"
}
ctl.mixer {
    type hw
    card 0
}


straightly taken from http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ALSA_sound_mixer_aka_dmix
:wink:

[EDIT] Oh, shame on me. you guys have ICE1724, so this might not apply to them.
