Multiple sound cards with ALSA : HOWTO

I'm a bit flabberghasted at the lack of alsa documentation on multiple sound cards. The totality of documentation on the topic amounts to dick. So here's my attempt at figuring out this whole mess. This is not an exhaustive guide, it is simply my interpretation of the available docs, implemented in such a way as to assist those of us who learn better by example.

While the focus of this doc will be on the setup of /etc/modules.d/alsa , I will try to cover the rest.

1: What sound card(s) do I have?

The simplest way to do this with PCI devices is to do the following

#lspci | grep -i audio

Code:

h2so4 ~ # lspci -vv | grep -i audio
0000:00:05.0 Multimedia audio controller: C-Media Electronics Inc CM8738 (rev 10)
0000:00:0d.1 Multimedia controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 Audio Capture (rev 02)
0000:00:10.0 Multimedia audio controller: Aureal Semiconductor Vortex 2 (rev fe)


Here we can see that I have 3 sound cards (Two and a TV card actually). I have a CMI 8738, a Aureal Vortex 2, and a WinTV card. I also have a USB webcam with microphone (it's an ov511)

2: 2.6 kernel configuration

I'm not going to tell you how to compile your kernel. I am going to tell you how to configure your sound. We're going to build everything as modules. I know some of you are going to want to go static, but I want you to trust me. Building as modules gives you more control over the loading order of the devices. This will be important later on. So:

(as root)

cd /usr/src/Linux
make menuconfig
(or genkernel --menuconfig all )

Code:

Device Drivers  --->
   Sound  --->
      <*> Sound card support
         Advanced Linux Sound Architecture  --->
            <M> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture
            <M> Sequencer support                     
            < >   Sequencer dummy client             
            <M> OSS Mixer API                     
            <M> OSS PCM (digital audio) API
            [*] OSS Sequencer API
               PCI devices  --->
                  <M> Aureal Vortex 2
                  <M> Bt87x Audio Capture
                  <M> C-Media 8738, 8338   
               ALSA USB devices  --->
                  <M> USB Audio/MIDI driver

Under PCI devices, you should select the sound cards that you had. These were the three I had listed.

Exit, save, make, make modules_install, cp to /boot, grubify it (you gentoo users know the drill)

3: Loading the modules
I use cold/hotplug. It makes it so that things load easily and I don't have to do much when adding temporary hardware to my box. There is a problem with hotplug though. It's that you have little control over the order in which the modules are loaded. Why is this a problem? Let me explain a little.

I want the Vortex2 to be my primary sound card. I will do 99.99% of my stuff with it. It is better than the CMI, does hardware mixing, and has a snazzy EQ.

So how do we control the order in which the modules load? Via the module autoloader.

h2so4 linux # vi /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6


Code:

# /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6:  kernel modules to load when system boots.
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6,v 1.1 2003/07/16 18:13:45 azarah Exp $
#
# Note that this file is for 2.6 kernels.
#
# Add the names of modules that you'd like to load when the system
# starts into this file, one per line.  Comments begin with # and
# are ignored.  Read man modules.autoload for additional details.
 
snd_au8830
snd_cmipci
snd_bt87x
snd_usb_audio



This sets the orders that the modules will load in, and will do so before coldplug kicks in (and sets some random order, like making my USB webcam my default audio device!). If someone else knows a better way to set up the module loading order, ping the thread and I will add it. This seemed like the most simple way to me.

Go here if you don't know what the driver name is
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/

When you reboot, you can do an lsmod to see that the drivers are loaded.

h2so4 linux # lsmod

4: /etc/modules.d/alsa

Last but not least, we want to configure any options for our cards. I think you have to install alsa-lib and alsa-util first

vi /etc/modules.d/alsa
Code:

# Alsa 0.9.X kernel modules' configuration file.
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/media-sound/alsa-utils/files/alsa-modules.conf-rc,v 1.2 2004/07/18 03:40:55 dragonheart Exp $
 
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
##
## IMPORTANT:
## You need to customise this section for your specific sound card(s)
## and then run `update-modules' command.
## Read alsa-driver's INSTALL file in /usr/share/doc for more info.
##
##  ALSA portion
alias snd-card-0 snd-au8830

options snd-usb-audio id="forth"
##  OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1
alias sound-slot-2 snd-card-2
alias sound-slot-3 snd-card-3
# OSS/Free portion - card #1

alias sound-service-2-12 snd-pcm-oss
##  OSS/Free portion - card #4
alias sound-service-3-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-3-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-3-12 snd-pcm-oss
 
alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss
 
options snd  device_mode=0666
options snd cards_limit=4


rc-update add alsa default
modules-update


you may have to reboot

Things you should know about the above...

    There is only ONE oss sequencer (/dev/midi). I would recommend using the one on your main sound card.

    Set the 'mode' if you want anyone other than root to be able to use the sound card.

    I called my cards "first, second, third, forth". You can call yours whatever you want.


Cryptic info on the config of this file can be found here.

Please ping the thread with anything that I missed.

Thank you for your time,
Frank Russo

1: Added usb audio device configuration. Fixed typos.
2: I went and actually "read" the posting guidelines.

Thanx,

If you have a specific config you need assistance with, ping the thread with the hardware (an lspci and whatever USB stuff you have) and preferences. I will write up a quick config.

great HOW-TO... =D

btw, I have an USB Audigy sound card and ALSA has allready detected the Audigy sound card BUT the sound is still coming out from my onboard soundcard and I cannot unmute the audigy from its external controller (the mute light is always on)....

Any suggestions?

thanks....

Great howto,

I've got a question,

I've got a sound card (integrated in my motherboard,based on AC97) and a usb headset.

I've done all the things you say and it works fine. But i'm kde user, and i would like to know if i can say somewhere (maybe in control-panel?) that the default out "sound card" is the ac97 for all the programs, or the headset for all the programs.

Actually i have to change in every program i run which output i want, and that is quite boring because i change quite from headset to ac97 quite often.

It's possible by redefining the alsa default pcm. (If you are interested, you can also add support for dmix and dsnoop this way.) In KControlCenter you may also just specify another device in "Sound System" -> "Hardware" -> "Override Device Location" by settings "hw:0,0" or "hw:1,0" in the field.

Basic "~/.asoundrc" for your user (and restart all sound-programs after updating your .asoundrc).
Code:
# First card default:
pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave {
        pcm "hw:0,0"
    }
}
ctl.mixer {
    type hw
    card 0
}
# Second card default:
pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave {
        pcm "hw:1,0"
    }
}
ctl.mixer {
    type hw
    card 1
}

I see a lot of good responses and feedback, thanx muchly.

The main problem that I see people having is that it is difficult to make the USB audio device the default, or to send certain things to a PCI device, and others to a USB device. As Bonbons pointed out, this is a situation where you would use dmix and a custom asoundrc (to reroute stuff).

I will see if I can come up with a howto on this, that puts things in an easy-to-understand way.

Thanks heaps for the guide, although I didn't actually use it. Found it while trying to make my onboard (intel8x0) multi-channel after getting 2 sound cards going.
Works really well if you have TV-out going and want to watch a movie on the TV and computer at the same time (Read: Girlfriend gets me to download horribly boring soap operas) :)

PostPosted: Wed Jan 26, 2005 2:44 am    Post subject: kmix is evil Reply with quote

I have 2 sound cards, 1 onboard and 1 Audigy 2 ZS. I followed the HOW-TO and it did help me a lot to fix my problem.

For some reason, I couldn't get sound with my Audigy 2 ZS (even with a good configuration). With XMMS, I could see the sound actually being sent to the card but no sound was heared. It turns out that Kmix was the problem. Even if I unmuted the sound card with amixer, kmix was somehow muting the PCI sound card (audigy) by default. I was able to get sound from my onboard card and that was it.

I suggest to also prevent kmix to take over your system by doing this :

1. deactivate kmix (uncheck all boxes in config!!!)
also disable the channel and make sure every lights are turned to red.
2. /etc/init.d/alsasound stop
3. rm /etc/asound.state
4. /etc/init.d/alsasound start
5. reactivate/unmute the channels with alsamixer or amixer

Now, my sound is working completly. After thinking it might be the drive or alsa, the solution was different than that. I hope this might help as well for others.

First of all: Thx for this great tut. I always hated configuring ALSA but everythig worked like charm following your Howto.
But I got another question for this issue:

Can this be done with a(lsa)mixer or do I have to merge some additional app?
Thx in advance,
reyneke.

P.S.: Plz excuse my language or if the question was answered before and I didn't realize. Englich is not my native tongue.

There isn't a way to do it through a GUI as far as I know. For all apps that use ALSA directly, the best way is to configure them with a common devicename (usually "default") that you manually point to the hardware device of your choice in ~/.asoundrc.
But you will probably need to restart the apps after a change to ~/.asoundrc (depends on how the app uses the alsalibs!)
For OSS apps you will have to use symlinks in /dev.

The only way to use alsamixer for it, is to output sound permanently to both cards, and muting one of both with alsamixer. (But then you loos the advantage of having two cards!)

how do i go about doing this? I have two cards working, and using something like xmms where there is a preference for which card i can get output from whichever i choose. I just want to know if there is some commandline argument i can use? thanks

is there some way of duplicating the output to both sound cards, ie whatever is sent to the first one is also sent to the second one (I dont care about syncing it or anything like that)

Good news,

A friend of mine has just picked up a USB headset (with a Mic built in). I will see if I can add the asoundrc portion in a few days.

Hurray my depression is gone.
Since upgrading the Alsa things to 1.0.8 I always had to restart Alsa to make the mixer work. After reading this great how-to I understand that my TV/radio-cardmodule was loaded before my real soundcard.
But I didn't put all modules in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 just the one I wanted to load first - snd_via82xx - and cold/hot -plug takes care of the rest.
Thanks russofris, you are a great shrink! :-)

hi there,

have a look @ Fernando Lopez-Lezcano's ccrma home -> Configuring multiple sound cards

http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/software/installtwosix.html#SECTION000201000000000000000

to get a idea about...

in /etc/modules.d/alsa
>alias snd-card-0 snd-CARD_0
>options snd-CARD_0 index=0

index starts counting with 0. a modules-update, reboot or alsa stop/start and you shuld be done. I have not tried it yet, but it is reported to work on gentoo...

I'm puzzled! I own a SB Audigy and a SB Audigy 2 ZS. As far as I know, they use the same driver/module, how am I going to specify which one should be loaded first?

I assume it's eriher by level, edge, or IRQ, so when you do an lspci, assume the one with the lowest or highest pciID number gets the priority.

I have this idea for making a central media server for my house. This box would have 4 or 5 different sound cards, and I would like them to all work in unison, or stand-alone, so I can turn them on or off when I want. So, is this do-able? From reading this thread, it seems like you can only use one sound card at a time, so I wouldn't be able to play on all of them. So could I do that, or not?

This is my config:

- VIA onbaord that uses the via82xx driver. This is configured and works fine.
- Creative Audigy 2 NX USB. This is supposed to use emu10k1. This card does not seem to want to be configured.

PCI: Using ACPI for IRQ routing
** PCI interrupts are no longer routed automatically.  If this
** causes a device to stop working, it is probably because the
** driver failed to call pci_enable_device().  As a temporary
** workaround, the "pci=routeirq" argument restores the old
** behavior.  If this argument makes the device work again,
** please email the output of "lspci" to bjorn.helgaas@hp.com
** so I can fix the driver.
