 Posted: Fri Aug 22, 2008 9:54 am Post subject: Attaching earphone doesn't mute sound |
 |
|
Hi!
I have a Realtek soundcard in my laptop (I know this because that is what the driver was called in Windows).
On linux, alsaconf uses hda-intel. Using this module, I am able to hear the sound. If I connect a speaker, the speaker also gives sound.
But here is my problem: Attaching the earphone/speaker doesn't mute the inbuilt speakers.
alsamixer gives me three bars to control voice: Headphone, PCM, Front
But changing Headphone also changes Front - they are interconnected and I cannot mute only one of them

# dmesg|grep hda_codec
hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC883, trying auto-probe from BIOS...

Any way to correct this or is it a problem with alsa? |

it's unrelated, but to fix those "unknown device" listings, you need to run update-pciids.
cheers

bunder: The problem didn't go away after update-pciids
Also, I missed this message  (or probably it is new after update-pciids, I don't know)
| Code: | | hda-intel: Invalid position buffer, using LPIB read method instead. |

Sorry for so many replies. This one will be the last:
bunder: All the dmesg problems went away when I added: | Code: | | options snd-hda-intel model=auto |
at the end of /etc/modules.d/alsa
This didn't correct my problem.
A new problem is also present probably - my mic doesn't work. Is there a program with which I can check it? |

krec/krecord? not sure which WM/DE you're using.
cheers

Try 2.6.26. Until that kernel version, I had the same problem with this machine. Now, that feature works...it only took a year of running Linux on this machine before that happened, but that's the way of Linux. I'm also using the latest and "greatest" versions of alsa-headers, alsa-lib, and alsa-utils.
So try upgrading to 2.6.26 and see what happens.
Blessed be!
Pappy

Hmm... I actually downgraded to 2.6.24 because I wanted to use proprietary ATI drivers, which have a problem with wine with other kernels.
Guess I will ditch wine to play Quake at nights |
