Very true :-) With all this high definition audio interfaces around us, we almost have forgotten how it sounded the old cassette tapes and how happy we were with that "crusty" sound. >> I would start for the easiest thing, that is, edit "/etc/modprobe/alsa- >> base.conf" and add to the bottom: >> >> options snd-hda-intel model=asus > > I have tried a few of these but as I can mute and unmute the mic I > thought I'd be closer than that, I can see all of the other channels in > alsamixer, under gnome I can even switch between the SB and HDMI cards. > >> Then reload the alsa module to apply the changes. >> >> (available "model=" values can be retrieved from "/usr/share/doc/alsa- >> base/driver/HDA-Audio-Models.txt.gz" so you can test with many options, >> like "6stack-digout", "asus-dig2", etc...). > > Ok, in all of my playing with linux I haven't had to do much with > modules (probubly just lucky) I tried root@gemini:~# modprobe -rv > snd_hda_intel && modprobe -v snd_hda_intel FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel > is in use. > > How to make the module not in use?

Realoading the alsa module makes only sense if you modified something in your "/etc/modprobe/alsa-base.conf" so the changes can be applied ;-) Anyway, you can try with "alsa reload", instead.
