Sound card works...I guess??

I'm using Alsa, but I have the first Audigy...not an Audigy 2. I tried the surround settings under alsamixergui, but moving them up and down had no effect at all. This sucks. I was really hoping to turn Mandrake into my main music machine. :(

 

Do you have a 4.1 setup as well?

Well, I've tried all the mixers I can find, but now matter how I adjust them, I can only get sound out of my front 2 speakers. A friend of mine told me to try recompiling my kernel because even though mandrake sees my soundcard, it may not understand what it's capable of. Is this true? Would recompiling the kernel be a good idea or a big mistake? I don't even know how to do this anyway.

Hi,

 

While scanning the link given above by zero0w, I found this :

 

One extra note on the rear speaker output, besides unmuting the `Wave Surround' slider, you will also need to **MUTE** the `Analog/Digital Output Jack' (the right-most slider in alsamixer) to enable rear speaker output. - Sprite 20020827

 

Hope this helps
