hi there. i'm using this asoundrc without success trying to use 5.1 from a secondary trust usb card modifying alsa-base i can't make it my default card (i set options snd-usb-audio=-0 but system recognizes intel card indexes as 0 anyway). here is my asoundrc modified according to select card #1. # 6 channel dmix: pcm.dmix6 { type dmix ipc_key 1024 ipc_key_add_uid false ipc_perm 0660 slave { pcm "plughw:1,0" rate 48000 channels 6 period_time 0 period_size 1024 buffer_time 0 buffer_size 5120 } } # upmixing: pcm.ch51dup { type route slave.pcm dmix6 slave.channels 6 ttable.0.0 1 ttable.1.1 1 ttable.0.2 1 ttable.1.3 1 ttable.0.4 0.5 ttable.1.4 0.5 ttable.0.5 0.5 ttable.1.5 0.5 } pcm.duplex { type asym playback.pcm "ch51dup" # upmix first capture.pcm "plughw:1" } # change default device: pcm.!default { type softvol slave.pcm "duplex" control { name "Software Master" card 1 } } any help would be great...
