Hello.

I need some help.
I can't make my headphones take control over the speakers to play the sound.
They worked for 2 days and after a reboot they stopped.
I use ALSA, snd-hda-intel driver, USB sound devices and PCI compiled as Kernel modules and loaded.
If I open alsamixer or Gnome Alsa Mixer or Volume Control -> I see and I can switch between my Intel sound and my Headphones set, auto gain control is checked but nothing happenes.
When my headphones worked, I had a speaker icon on task bar, now It's disappeared.

Anyone can point me to a right direction?

Try following the Gentoo wiki for ALSA at:

http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/ALSA

Specifically, pay attention to the part about creating an /etc/asound.conf file.

Hope this helps...

I am having exactly the same problem.

I am trying to make all of the sound go to the usb headset.

Some of it goes to the usb headset and some of it doesn't.

I can't seem to get any help and I have been working on the problem for 4 days.

The ALSA Wiki, to me, is worthless.

Let me know if you find and answer. donaldbjames@suddenlinkmail.com

Sincerely,

donjames

Moved from Multimedia to Duplicate Threads.
See .asoundrc help.
