[pulseaudio-discuss] Help in setting up PA... SOLVED

Tue Jun 3 13:45:10 PDT 2008

ok, very thank, i will try this last alternative

every y am login in ubuntu at root, never i am have problem with te PA using the default default.pa file 
i am discart the problem of login as root, this is a warning mesage not a critical mesage 

bye and thank

  ok... 

  1) The/var/log/messages indicates that you are running the pa server as root (you say as well) and it also says the pa server is not intended to be run as root... so you might want to change to a regular user and use sudo for root related activities.

  2) I think that the terjeta 3 requires some special parameters ... similar to tarjeta 2.  I'm not familiar with ice1724 device driver, but you may want to try the same setup for tarjeta 3 as for tarjeta 2.  This is just a guess... anyone with knowledge about how to setup an ice1724 source/sink in pa... please speak up now... 

  3) Of course, it looks like tarjeta 3 was identified by the module-detect/module-hal-detect.  What we've done is disable this and tried to set the sources/sinks manually.  module-detect/module-hal-detect seems to be an all or nothing proposition...  if anyone knows of a way to auto-detect specific devices and manually set others in the same config file... please speak up now.   

  Well, you might want to try this (once again, a guess):

      a) re-enable the auto-detect  - we know this will detect tarjeta 0 and 3, and not tarjeta 1 and 2 
      b) add only the manual configuration for tarjeta 2, after that

  So your default.pa file would contain:

  ### Automatically load driver modules depending on the hardware available
  .ifexists module-hal-detect.so
  load-module module-hal-detect
  .else
  ### Alternatively use the static hardware detection module (for systems that
  ### lack HAL support)
  load-module module-detect
  .endif

  # Load the devices:
  #load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=nvidia_out device=hw:0
  #load-module module-alsa-source source_name=nvidia_in device=hw:0

  #load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=hdmi_out device=hw:1
  #load-module module-alsa-source source_name=hdmi_in device=hw:1

  load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=ewx2496_out device=hw:2 channels=10 channel_map=left,right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7
  load-module module-alsa-source source_name=ewx2496_in device=hw:2 channels=12 channel_map=left,right,aux0,aux1,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7,aux8,aux9

  #load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=e192m_out device=hw:3
  #load-module module-alsa-source source_name=e192m_in device=hw:3

  # Select default device
  #set-default-sink nvidia_out 
  #set-default-source nvidia_in

  Let's see if module-hal-detect/module-detect allows manual loading of sources/sinks.

    hi, the problem is partial solved

    i an coment and paste the module taht you say my

    the pa server not start after reboot, 

    i am coment and uncoment one to one, to discart waht is the card tthat cause problem , 

    # Load the devices:
    load-module module-alsa-sink sink_name=nvidia_out device=hw:0

    #load-module module-alsa-source source_name=e192m_in device=hw:3

    in this mode, load pa server, and in the padevchooser apear the ewx2496 card :) very  happy 

    when un coment the e192 card, again pa server not start same when uncoment hdmi card 

    i like active also e192 card, is posible?

    i am to paste this info, this is the first mail i want to send to list :

    hi, the server not start, always i am login as root

    can you test the information?
