Posted: Fri Mar 29, 2013 10:05 pm Post subject: Two ALSA problems |
|
|
1. I am running Google Chrome. When I go to Youtube and try watching a video, I get no sound. I know that ALSA is working because Pianobar works nicely.
2. Can I use ALSA for Skype, or is Pulseaudio required? |

Try running chrome from the command-line - hopefully it will show an error message.
Skype works fine with ALSA - doesn't need pulseaudio. _________________ Improve your font rendering and ALSA sound |

1. you need use dmix for mixing
i.e. my /etc/asound.conf with dmix and system-wide equalizer aka alsaequal Code: | pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "plugequal"
}
pcm.dmixer {
type dmix
ipc_key 1024
slave {
pcm 'hw:0'
format S32_LE
rate 44100
}
}
ctl.dmixer {
type hw
card 0
device 0
}
pcm.dsp {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmixer"
}
ctl.equal {
type equal;
# library "/usr/lib/ladspa/electrode_eq.so"
# module "electrode_eq"
}
pcm.plugequal {
type equal;
# library "/usr/lib/ladspa/electrode_eq.so"
# module "electrode_eq"
slave.pcm "plug:dmixer";
}
pcm.equal {
type plug;
slave.pcm plugequal;
}

I will give both of these a try in the next few hours.
Ok, so I tried going into Chrome to watch a video, and it worked... |
