Package: alsa-base
Version: 1.0.23+dfsg-2
Severity: normal
I've recently installed Debian testing and as of 16-Dec-2010 everything is up
to date.
The ALSA driver for my Sound Blaster Audigy Value is the emu10k1. My
motherboard has a sound card witch I've disabled in my bios and blacklisted the
modules as well (it only does stereo even though it's capable of 7.1, it's one
of the HD-intel cards).
When I run the command:
$ speaker-test -c 8 -t wav
speaker-test 1.0.23
Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 8 channels
WAV file(s)
Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz)
Buffer size range from 64 to 16384
Period size range from 16 to 16384
Using max buffer size 16384
Periods = 4
was set period_size = 4096
was set buffer_size = 16384
0 - Front Left
4 - Center
1 - Front Right
7 - Side Right
3 - Rear Right
2 - Rear Left
6 - Side Left
5 - LFE
Time per period = 11.096700
Okay, I get Front Left and Front Right but not from left or right speakers.
It's only coming out of the center speaker. So I get 0 and 1 out of 4 and only
silence from 2 through 7.
In Ubuntu 10.10 it only gets 5.1 sound. In Ubuntu 10.04 I had full 7.1. I no
longer have my Gentoo install but when I did I never had a problem with the
emu10k1 and automagically got 7.1 sound.
