Re: [alsa-devel] How to set idle S/PDIF sample rate?
by Demian Martin 29 Feb '08

29 Feb '08

I noticed another big problem in my application relating to locking the system at 48 KHz in the background. If I set SPDIF to 44.1KHz on some playback software (Xine for example) between tracks the system briefly switches back to 48 KHz. This causes an audible pop as the external DAC tries to keep up with the rate change. I have not found a way to lock the system at a different rate (44100 for example) so this doesn't happen between tracks. This behavior is common to both the ICE1724 and the VT1708 drivers. -Demian Date: Thu, 28 Feb 2008 16:12:10 -0500 From: Matt Whitlock <matt(a)whitlock.name> Subject: Re: [alsa-devel] How to set idle S/PDIF sample rate?

I'll have to rebuild my kernel to disable the in-kernel ALSA code and build the ALSA module separately from the latest sources, but if this patch fixes things, that would be worth the effort. I'll get back to you. Thanks. -Matt

[alsa-devel] How to set idle S/PDIF sample rate?
by Matt Whitlock 28 Feb '08

28 Feb '08

When no programs have the sound hardware open, ALSA drives my Intel HDA's S/PDIF output with silence at 48000 Hz. How would I change this default so that the idle sample rate is 44100 Hz? The reason I ask is that my stereo receiver misses the first second or so of each song that I play as it switches from 48000 Hz to 44100 Hz. I understand that by switching the idle sample rate to 44100 Hz, I would have the same problem whenever playing a DVD, but I can much more happily accept the switching delay when starting DVDs than I can when starting music playback. I've tried everything, including replacing /usr/share/alsa/alsa.conf with a single PCM definition that outputs straight to hardware with "rate 44100", but still, whenever nothing is accessing the sound hardware, ALSA reverts to 48000-Hz silence. There must be a way to influence that, right? Alternatively, if ALSA would simply not output anything over S/PDIF when idle, my receiver could just stay at 44100 Hz, albeit unlocked since there would be no data stream at all. So this is also an acceptable solution to me, but I cannot find any way to make ALSA totally shut up when idle. It always wants to output silence. Interestingly, if I mute the IEC958 playback channel and then unmute it, my receiver reports no signal at all until I play a sound, and then after the sound finishes, my receiver reports that it is locked onto PCM at 48000 Hz. Seems kind of like a bug, doesn't it? Thanks to anyone who can lend some assistance.

[alsa-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Fixes to couple DAPM widget functions
by Jarkko Nikula 28 Feb '08

28 Feb '08

API change done by the commit 9af6d9562414568ecadf96aaef5b88e7e8b19821, "[ALSA] soc - Add support for passing kcontrols with events", doesn't change affected pxa machine and wm9712 drivers. These two patches are generated from master branch of linux-2.6-asoc tree but they apply to alsa git and alsa-kernel hg trees as well. I separated wm9712 to own patch since it is ok in asoc-v2-dev branch. There are other drivers as well with this error in asoc-v2-dev but I don't know are they already in progress? I can post a another patch to them if needed. -- Jarkko

That patch originally worked for any board, but was later made specific to a certain Supermicro motherboard which had the sata_nv controller MMIO regions marked as reserved, preventing the driver from loading.

[alsa-devel] HDMI Multichannel LPCM/RAW Support/Status
by Dustin Kerstein 27 Feb '08

27 Feb '08

I was just curious if there is any planned support for multichannel LPCM/Raw audio for newer HDMI based chipsets. There are several matx boards with HDMI 1.1 and above compliance, which means they should be able to pass 8-channel LPCM audio. Also, in HDMI 1.3 and above, Bit Stream passing is supported, which actually should be easier, bandwidth wise, than LPCM. Multichannel PCM (above 2 channels) was never an issue because SPDIF lacked the bandwidth. After talking with some people in irc it seems as though the # of channels setting in Alsa is only one bit. Thanks. Dustin
