@Raymond #33 , when I execute that test, I hear sound out of the appropriate speakers ("front left" comes out of FrontLeft). This is with the dotdeb installed, and profile set to 5.1 surround
$ speaker-test -c2 -t wav -D hw:0 speaker-test 1.0.25 Playback device is hw:0 Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels WAV file(s) Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz) Buffer size range from 64 to 16384 Period size range from 32 to 8192 Using max buffer size 16384 Periods = 4 was set period_size = 4096 was set buffer_size = 16384 0 - Front Left 1 - Front Right Time per period = 2.731614 p.s. this test, I'm pretty sure is not exercising my subwoofer... it says 'rear center' and seems to come from the same physical speaker as the 'front center' output comes from. Is there some lower-level command I can use to generate a pure tone from the subwoofer, so I can compare and contrast the location? $ speaker-test -c6 -t wav -D hw:0 -s 6 speaker-test 1.0.25 Playback device is hw:0 Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 6 channels WAV file(s) Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz) Buffer size range from 22 to 5461 Period size range from 11 to 2730 Using max buffer size 5460 Periods = 4 was set period_size = 1365 was set buffer_size = 5460 - LFE -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1236965 Title: pulseaudio does not recognize internal speakers [P180HMx, Realtek ALC892, Speaker, Internal] volume slider problem To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1236965/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
