Hold it! I'm now replying to my own reply. Sorry for the annoyance.I used the wrong command. I should have done: "aplay -D plughw:1 xxx.wav" [as Clemens suggested below] That is, use a "-D", not "-d". When I use the right command, I actually do get some output, but it comes in one-second

"aplay -d plughw:1 xxx.wav" gets me sound coming from the onboard soundcard on the laptop, but no sound from the Audiophile USB. The same results when I use "plughw:1,1" (or 1,0 or 0,0). I also tried using hw:1 (and variants). I appreciate your help. -Tom > > Does "aplay -D plughw:1 somet

2006-11-13 Thread Tom Frei
I'm running a 2.6.17.13 kernel on Slackware 11. I am trying to get a M-Audio Audiophile USB to work. No luck yet. I notice that "/etc/modprobe.conf" has been deprecated and apparently "/etc/modprobe.d/sound" is used instead. When I ran "alsaconf", my onboard cs42236 was recognized and configu

My M-audio Audiophile USB card works when I do: aplay -D hw:1,0 -c2 -t raw -r48000 -fS24_3BE test.raw But the output has a lot of hiss---and is at double-speed. I've tried aplay with different settings, but I don't get anything. Anybody have any experience with this or other USB cards? Thanks.
