Re: Sound broken in 3.2.0 and 3.2.1

From: Joseph Parmelee

Hello again:

I have managed to find a work-around for this problem so that we are now
running 3.2.1 on our production system. For that reason I can't run
also-info.sh on the 3.1.x system. I do however have the results from
/proc/asound/Intel/codec#2 for both systems taken earlier. See below.

To "fix" 3.2.1, I made the following changes to the system startup file:

I discovered that the PCM control, though absent in 3.2.1 on loading the
sound modules with

modprobe snd_hda_intel
modprobe snd_pcm_oss

appears after aplay is called on any sound file. Also the main playback
volume control has been shifted from "PCM" to "Front" which can be set with:

/usr/bin/amixer sset "Front",0 64,64

I then found that if I rebuilt mplayer2 from git (with the 3.2.1 sound
module loaded) mplayer no longer installs its own volume control filter and
used the "PCM" control normally. Because I neglected to try rebuilding with
the existing mplayer2 version before updating from git, this could be due to
a change in mplayer2.

In any event this makes the sound system usable for our purposes in 3.2.1
but is clearly a kludge around the regression reported above, particularly
the need to call aplay.

The contents of /proc/asound/Intel/codec#2 for 3.1.8 and 3.2.1 immediately
after the modules are loaded follows:

These results were obtained after rebuilding (in this order) alsalibs,
alsautils, gamix, aumix, and sox in linux-3.2.1 with the sound modules for
3.2.1 installed.

Both the PCM and Front sound controls now show in alsamixer and amixer, and
work normally.

The PCM slider now shows in gamix and moving it does affect the setting, but
it does not track the PCM setting from other sources. The Front slider also
now appears in gamix and works normally.

Neither the PCM nor Front control shows in aumix.


The output from /proc/asound/Intel/codec#2 for 3.2.1 after the kludges above
in the startup file follows. Note that the only change is due to the Front
volume being set with amixer. In particular the PCM control is still
missing here but now shows and works normallly in amixer and alsamixer, and
it controls the sound output normally in aplay, play, and mplayer2.
