Hi
When playing CDs on my Lenny system, I get great stereo. However, whenever
playing mp3s - even those that I have ripped myself in stereo, I don't get
stereo at all: music only comes out of the right speaker, no matter which
application I am using for playback. I am using ALSA and as far as I can
tell have the basic arrangement set up properly. I ran alsaconf and
selected the correct card, and then alsamixer and adjusted the settings:
the CD still plays in stereo, but the mp3 players not.
Can anyone give me a steer in the right direction please?
The fact that direct CD playback is in stereo does not necessarily mean
that ALSA is correctly configured for stereo playback of sound files.
A better test is:
speaker-test -t sine -c2
This command should produce a (rather boring) sine wave output which
switches between left and right channel every few seconds. Does that
work?
Florian
Thanks for the idea. Left front does not work - which is the speaker
that is non-responsive when playing mp3s. I wonder if this is due to the
new kernel upgrade recently: 2.6.22-2-686
