'Twas brillig, and Jim Duda at 17/09/09 01:50 did gyre and gimble:


In addition to installing the .so you need to define the a52 device
string. A config fragment for that is unfortunately not shipped
upstream with alsa iirc, but I think debian includes it. You might
want to steal it from there.

All I could was this file.  Is this what you are referring to?

# a52 plugin configuration
# $Id$

pcm.a52 {
    type a52        # Default :
    #card 1            # 0
    #rate 44100        # 48000
    #channels 4        # 6
    #bitrate 256        # 448
    #format S16_BE        # S16 (Native-Endian)
    hint {
        description "A52 Output Plugin"
    }
}

I tried putting this file (a52.conf) in both /etc/alsa/pcm and
/usr/share/alsa/pcm.

I still only have "stereo iec958" selections in the Configuration tab.

try putting the fragmen in your ~/.asoundrc.

I'm not sure that all *.conf files are magically read from these locations.

Also make sure this shows up at a lower level first.. i.e. aplay -L before looking for it in pulse.
