Posted: Thu Jul 01, 2021 12:52 am Post subject: Sound issues (SOLVED) |
|
|
Hello. I have recently installed Gentoo and have been having a jolly time with it so far. My only issue at the moment is that i haven't been able to get audio to work. I have tried changing my kernel config and using pulseaudio but to avail. If anyone could perhaps help me with this issue it would be much appreciated.
Running: "lspci | grep -i audio" returns this:
Code: | 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA corporation GM204 High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1) |
In case it could help.
Thanks in advance.

Pulseaudio won't work unless ALSA is working.
Can you post Code: | cat /proc/asound/devices |
What's showing in alsamixer? |

Hello and thank you for the reply. When I insert the command it returns with:
Code: | 1: : sequencer
33: : timer |
Alsamixer is showing two 00 below the sound bar and is saying my card and chip are pulseaudio |

whywontgentoowork.mfw,
You have some bits missing from your kernel.
Code: | 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04)
01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA corporation GM204 High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1) |
You need Code: | snd_hda_codec_hdmi 53248 1
snd_hda_intel 24576 7 |
For the HDMI outputs on your video card and the driver for the codec on your motherboard, if you want use that too.
Pulseaudio is just getting in the way while you are are doing diagnostics.
Its a wrapper around Alsa that may may sound easier to configure once it works at all with the price of increased latency. _________________ Regards,

This happened to work. Thank you Neddy, and anyone here who helped. |
