Hi,
Family member with the HDSP 9652 using the same kernel but using
Planet Alsa support. Possibly your RPMs might have something to do
with this?
To me this sounds like a firmware revision issue. Check with other
MultiFace users as to which revision they are using.

Hello -
I just installed a new HDSP multiface with PCI on a PlanetCCRMA/FC3
box, kernel 2.6.8.1-1.520.2vS7.ll, ALSA 1.07 (homemade rpms) and am
not seeing any output levels on HDSPmixer (bottom row) despite
actually hearing the signal I expect (sounds great).
Modules/firmware load beautifully, I can route signal with HDSPmixer
as expected, adjust levels, etc, just no visual feedback from the
outputs row either with vu levels or changing peak values.
Seems a bit strange. Default operation on my copy is that the
input/top row routes nowhere, so for input audio I have to select
where you want it to go and bring the level up before I see anything
in the bottom row. Note that if you choose a route but do not bring
the level up on the top row then the next time you look it's not
selected.
Default operation for the internal audio is vertical routing.
1-internal goes to 1-output, 2-internal goes to 2-output, etc. Default
levels are set correctly for this. This way if you choose a default
app it routes to internal 1/2 and you see output 1/2 with the same
value. Hook your output D/A there and you get sound. (Supposedly!) ;-)
Also on mixer channels that do show vu's (input and internal, top and
middle rows respectively) the yellow peak indicators appear only
randomly every 2-3 seconds or so, sort or popping around without any
clear relation to the signal peak. Something's not right here.
I see the yellow peak about 1/4" above the top of the green VU moving
as the audio does.

"proc/interrupts says the card is on it's own interrupt, IRQ 5.
Is it set non-threaded?
