Maudio 2496

Postby tobodestroyer on Tue Apr 24, 2012 9:42 am

Dear All,

I have an Maudio 2496 sound card which I finally got running on Mint 11. However, I can't get it to work with Mint 12 and, even worse than that, it's been so long that I had to fiddle with it on Mint 11 that I can't remember what on earth I did to kick it into action. Is anybody using this soundcard sucesfully on Mint 12? If so, I'd love to know how to get it working.

Many thanks

Pete

I have onboard VIA audio chip in other PC, the sound is working after editing "alsa-base.conf" in /etc/modprobe.d

I see this line...

01:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies Inc. ICE1712 [Envy24] PCI Multi-Channel I/O Controller (rev 02)

but no error message. The card is recognised by the machine and I can control it but there's just no output.

Great! I installed the GNOME Alsa Mixer, turned up the DAC to maximum and now I have glorious sound. Thanks very much.
