I've had my Philips USB Sound System working in the past with Alsa, but ever since I installed Redhat 9 on my workstation it stopped working. I've searched all over google and followed all the ALSA installation howto's to no avail.
I have a builtin sound card (using the snd-intel8x0 driver) and that works fine. To try and cancel out what could be causing the problem I've disabled the onboard sound so I'm left with just the USB sound system.
/proc/asound/cards shows: 1 [Sys ]: USB-Audio - Philips USB Digital Speaker Sys Philips USB Digital Speaker System at usb-00:02.0-1
Some positive text from dmesg:
usb.c: registered new driver snd-usb-audio ALSA usbaudio.c:2340: 2:1:1: add audio endpoint 0x4 ALSA usbaudio.c:2340: 2:1:2: add audio endpoint 0x4 ALSA usbaudio.c:2340: 2:1:3: add audio endpoint 0x4 ALSA usbaudio.c:2340: 2:1:4: add audio endpoint 0x4 ALSA usbaudio.c:2340: 2:1:5: add audio endpoint 0x4 ALSA usbaudio.c:2340: 2:1:6: add audio endpoint 0x4
(yep, I have 'debug' turned on in ALSA to try and aid in finding the problem)
The only concerning messages from dmesg are:
input0: USB HID v1.00 Pointer [0471:0101] on usb1:3.2 usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 3 rqt 128 rq 6 len 9 ret -32 usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 3 rqt 128 rq 6 len 9 ret -32 usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 3 rqt 128 rq 6 len 9 ret -32 usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 3 rqt 128 rq 6 len 371 ret -32 usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 3 rqt 128 rq 6 len 371 ret -32 usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 3 rqt 128 rq 6 len 9 ret -32 usbdevfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed dev 3 rqt 128 rq 6 len 371 ret -32
If I type "cat /dev/dsp", I get "No such device". /dev/dsp looks like this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] log]# ls -al /dev/dsp
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Aug 26 03:57 /dev/dsp -> /dev/dsp0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] log]# ls -al /dev/dsp0
crw------- 1 gs root 14, 3 Aug 26 03:57 /dev/dsp0
I'm using alsa-{lib,driver,utils}-0.9.6.
Also, my /etc/modules.conf looks like this:
post-install snd-card-0 alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || : pre-remove snd-card-0 alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : post-install snd-card-1 alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || : pre-remove snd-card-1 alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : # ALSA alias char-major-116 snd alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 alias snd-card-1 snd-usb-audio alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss options snd-intel8x0 index=0 options snd-usb-audio index=1 # OSS/Free portion alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-slot-7 snd-card-1
Any suggestions on what else I can try?
Thanks in advance for any help.
