 Posted: Fri May 16, 2008 3:28 pm Post subject: VirtualBox sound problem. Is my .asoundrc file correct? |
 |
|
I have a new soundcard that is installed and working properly. It is using the Alsa driver. It works with Audacious and Amorak. But for VirtualBox(Windows XP guest) I get no sound, inspite of having the ALSA driver enabled in Virtualbox manager. The only thing I can think of is maybe I don't have the .asoundrc file set up correctly so VirtualBox can not read the correct soundcard? This is it:
| Code: | pcm.oxygen {
type hw
card 0
}
ctl.oxygen {
type hw
card 0
} |
And here is the card info when I do a aplay -l:
| Code: | **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 1: CMI8788 [C-Media CMI8788], device 0: Analog [Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: CMI8788 [C-Media CMI8788], device 1: Digital [Digital]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
|
Judging from this information, is my .asoundrc file set up correctly? Any suggestions o[/code]n what may be the cause of my problem? |

- What version of ALSA are you using?
- Have you tried switching to hw 0,1? (card 1 - digital)
- Have you tried through dmix?
Perhaps your physical sound card is being accessed by two different applications
at the same time but they can't talk to each other... Supposing there is available
hardware mixing
