[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#342026: alsa-utils: Dmix stopped working.

[Laurent Bonnaud]

Hi,

I have a similar problem with my "Terratec Aureon Sky" soundcard (with
the snd_ice1724 driver).  Here is how it is listed by lspci:

0000:00:0c.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc.
VT1720/24 [Envy24PT/HT] PCI Multi-Channel Audio Controller (rev 01)

I have no .asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf file and dmix does not work: a
second program that tries to output sound blocks.

I tried this patch:

https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/file_download.php?file_id=969&type=bug

that I applied to the /usr/share/alsa/cards/ICE1724.conf file.  dmix
still does not work.

Let me add that dmix used to work with older versions of alsa and the
sample dmix configuration given
in /usr/share/doc/libasound2/examples/asound.conf_dmix.  This is
therefore a regression.
