Hi,

I have been trying for some days to get my sound working, but so far I haven't been succesful. I guess my main problem is that snd_hda_intel does not show up in my lsmod:
Code:

# lsmod
Module                  Size  Used by
nvidia              10629682  30
x86_pkg_temp_thermal     3141  0
dm_snapshot            27162  0


but I clearly set the alsa option in my kernel:

Code:

I am trying to use my intel optical output in order to get the sound to the speekers.

As it statys in the wiki:[url] http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ALSA#S.2FPDIF_or_HDMI_.asoundrc[/url]
I created a .asoundrc
Code:

pcm.!default {
        type hw
        card 5
}

ctl.!default {
        type hw
        card 5
}


and as statet in http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PulseAudio I also removed everybody from the audio group. I also tried diffrent configurations but without any success. In journalctl -b I see:

Code:

pulseaudio[4156]: [pulseaudio] ltdl-bind-now.c: Failed to open module module-oss.so: module-oss.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
pulseaudio[4156]: [pulseaudio] module.c: Failed to open module "module-oss".
pulseaudio[4156]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Module load failed.
starcruser pulseaudio[4156]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to initialize daemon.
starcruser pulseaudio[4153]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup failed.


Therefore I suspect that I also have a problem with pulseaudio. If necessary or recomended I would remove pulseaudio, but as I have read so far you get better sound quallity if you have multiple soundoutputs to one device. As far as the packages for alsa goes:

Code:

If that's just the problem with the module, coment its load in the configure file.

Also, in .asoundrc, try setting 'defaults.pcm.!card <slot number>' instead of what you did.

I would rather disable all of "alsa" USE flags and delete all of asound config files: It is pulseaudios job to do the config. It is its purpose of existence.

It seems you have sound hard coded into the kernel

(compare

Quote:
CONFIG_SND_HDA_INTEL=m
)

so it won't show up as a module; it might be easier to troubleshoot
if sound stuff is built as modules
