Re: [alsa-devel] Regarding Sound on Acer Aspire 6935G

6 Jun 2009

      Just tried with model acer-aspire-8930g on 1.0.20, it works the same as
acer-aspire-4930g. Mic works, the "tuba" thing doesn't. Googling a bit I
found that acer-aspire-8930g is for ALC889, but mine is ALC888.
I attach alsa-info.txt for this new model, just in case it's useful.

Takashi, were you able to have a look at it?
Sorry, no time.

Any idea on what might be going

You can try another one, the recently added model acer-aspire-8930g.

    Just took a quick look now, I found that you didn't unmute "Side
    Playback Switch" in the disabled case.  Do you mean that as
    "disabled"?

Disabled = Muted = Off, Enabled = Unmuted = On. So sound works on

enabled,
...
doesn't work on disabled.

    I assume that these files are from the "old" driver with the bass
    working as Side volume.  Is it correct?

Yes

    thanks,

    Takashi

Thanks for having a look at it :)
