Sorry for the delayed response:
On Fri, 03 Mar 2006 18:49:27 -0800, Kevin Cosgrove was like:
xmms -> Options -> Preferences -> Audio I/O Plugins/Output Plugin/Configure
I got yours - thanks. Mine looked the same, but I could not resolve the issues I had on
Ubuntu, so I switched to a bare-bones Debian install, only adding packages I needed from
etch. Along the way I discovered part of the solution - I modified
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, adding "options snd-cmipci index=2" to the end of the
file. This prevents the C-Media card from being the default sound card. That, and running
"modprobe snd-seq" pretty much solved my problems, and I am even getting lower
latency numbers than with Demudi. Thanks for your help.

It shows both of my Delta 1010s and the on-board C-Media card. One of the Delta cards and
the C-Media card are sharing IRQ 5, and the C-Media card is the default sound card. I
don't understand this, because I have disabled the C-Media card in the BIOS.
After googling and reading for several hours last
nite, I was
still unable to find a solution to this, so I decided to give up
and just ask. I am trying to get Ardour, Jack and my Delta 1010
working on Ubuntu Dapper Flight 4, but I wonder if I am missing
something from alsa. There is also an onboard C-Media sound chip.
I can get sound from the C-Media chip, but the only time I hear a
sound from the Delta card is when the Ubuntu login screen
appears, and only after a reboot. XMMS will play thru the C-Media,
What does your /proc/asound/cards contain? but when I try
to change to the Delta card, I get the "couldn't
open audio" error message. The snd_ice1712 module is loaded. I
tried disabling the C-Media chip in the BIOS, but Ubuntu still
recognizes and uses it.
What are you doing to "try to change to the Delta card"? Here is what
happens when I
try to run alsamixer or alsa.conf as root:
What does your alsa.conf contain? I'll send you my 619 line file
off-list. I hope that's OK with you and the list. The above line
saying, "Unable to find definition 'defaults.ctl.card'" makes me
suspect that the cards were never configured for some reason.
Strangely, I never had to do that step. My Delta-1010 was simply
discovered and configured by my Mandrake 10.1 system. My alsa.conf
file contains one line reading like this: "defaults.ctl.card 0". Keep at it. You'll be glad you did. Ardour with
a Delta 1010 is
wonderful.
I know - I have been using two on my Windows mobile DAW for almost 2 years - I'm just
trying to transition them over to Linux.
