Hi Raymond.
I so sorry Raymond. But I'm not sure what to do with this info. Is there something more I have to tell you? Is there anything I can do to make pulseaudio able to detect via udev? Can I copy-paste that bit of code you sent me somewhere? Please tell me if there's more you need to know. Greetings. Lars.

Hi.
Talking to one of the pulseaudio developers (*Colin Guthrie*) about a problem with pulseaudio loading modules and my sound card (RME HDSP
9632),
I was adviced to inform you about the problem.
I'm on ubuntu 9.10, 64bit, kernel 2.6.31 with an amd64 x2 3800+
processor.
Symptoms are: Can only make pulseaudio load modules with the deprecated load-module module-detect command, module-udev-detect doesn't detect anything (no
sound
- only null sink output in padevchooser).
I get terrible stuttering. I can remove pulseaudio and make things work, more or less. However,
that
leaves me without software mixing and apps fighting for the rights to
make
sound. And more inconveniences (fx. no volume-control). I can play sound from audacity without stuttering by choosing the
cardname
directly in output HDSP, not ALSA, not pulseaudio.
When trying to run alsa-info.sh I get a lot of "not found" errors. So you'll get some manual info (they might have moved som files around in ubuntu 9.10).
This is part of my syslog during a boot. (I did the formatting to bold).

And of course. My computer makes no sound if I don't load the hdspmixer

Please let me know, if you need more info. I really hope you can help
out
here. And that this might help you to.
Thanks for the great work you do. Greetings. Lars Zobbe. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@alsa-project.org http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
