Hello all, I know what you're thinking. Why doesn't the guy just type the subject of this message into Google and use one of the soöutions provided.
Well, I did just that. I don't even really have to choose between solutions because everybody suggests the same: Include the following lines in the appropriate file in /etc/modprobe.d: alias snd-card-0 snd-aloop alias snd-card-1 snd-hda-intel options snd-aloop index=0 pcm_substreams=2 options snd-hda-intel index=1 I did that. The "relevant file" on my Debian system seems to be called "alsa-base.conf", so that's where I included them. Beginning or end, it didn't matter. The onboard soundcard is always index 0, and the aloop module doesn't load at all: root@dotcom:/etc/modprobe.d# uname -a Linux dotcom 3.2.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2 i686 GNU/Linux root@dotcom:/etc/modprobe.d# aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: ICH7 [Intel ICH7], device 0: Intel ICH [Intel ICH7] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: ICH7 [Intel ICH7], device 4: Intel ICH - IEC958 [Intel ICH7 - IEC958] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 root@dotcom:/etc/modprobe.d# modprobe snd-aloop ERROR: could not insert 'snd_aloop': No such device root@dotcom:/etc/modprobe.d# dmesg | tail -n 3 [ 445.897214] cannot find the slot for index 0 (range 0-0), error: -16 [ 445.897229] snd_aloop: probe of snd_aloop.0 failed with error -16 [ 445.897278] aloop: No loopback enabled Hints, anyone?
