Razer Barracuda AC-1

Hello,

I bought a Razer Barracuda AC-1 sound card recently and I'm wondering how well it works in Linux. There is a driver in ALSA (Module-Oxygen) but the only thing I found is this. That is, the support of the Oxygen HD Audio is very poor. This source is a few months old though, so I'm not sure if anything has changed. Also, Razer provides drivers for Windows XP/Vista that enable the use of features such ad Dolby Headphone, DTS, and others. If the card *would* work, would there be any way to use those features?

Any feedback and comments appreciated. I got this card for cheap and replaced my X-Fi XtremeMusic with this, and I'm very pleased with the change.

Thanks.

The AC-1 works fine with alsa driver version 1.0.16. Though I did not meddle with the fancy stuff like the SPDIF output.

Edit: works fine with the digital output too, using the sample configuration from there: http://hampelratte.org/blog/?p=14
Be sure to enable IEC958 switch, and enable stereo upmixing front+surround+back if you use the gnome alsa mixer.

Yup, I got it working with 1.0.16 just fine, too. Just didn't update the topic :roll:

Here's a driver status for this, if anyone's interested.

Thanks for the PM.

With the optical out I can ONLY get the front/left and front/right speaker to work.

Any ideas?

Did anyone get the 0415 drivers to work? On my AMD X2 I can't get them to load at all, but the old drivers work just fine.
