I have Lucid, 10.04.1, 32 bit, ALSA 1.0.23, NVidia 256.53.
MSI GT210 with onboard audio disabled. Pioneer VSX-519V-K receiver connected via HDMI
I set up my audio based on this topic:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=80779
Config files are:
And I enabled one line in pulse config file (/etc/pulse/default.pa):
Right now all system-wide sounds working fine. Video is playing fine (totem player) with full surround on all files I have.
More important for me, I have online TV and youtube (Moonligh, Adobe). All that works fine with pulse
Though Dharma does not.
Audio Device I have and only producing sound in Dharma is Analog Audio Device 5.1. I know, the name is confusing, because I don't have anything besides digital HDMI for GT210, onboard audio is disabled in BIOS. it is just came from config somewhere with confusing "Analog" word. If I change to HDMI there is a silence regardless of Audio Device output and Default pass-through
On some files it plays fine. On another, with the same type 5.1 DTS track it just gives high-pitch crackling slightly resembling what is happening on the screen.
One DTS ES 7.1 says "Unable to initialize audio device" for the same settings. This file is properly downmixed to 5.1 in totem player. If I switch to "HDMI" from Analog, no error is being shown. But no audio either.
Is there a way to make Dharma to work with Pulse? Or just disable it for XBMC Dharma only? If I call XBMC this way: "pasuspender -- xbmc" XBMC hangs on video playback. Though it shows new "alsa hdmi sink..." in audio device settings.
As much as I understand, if I disable pulse audio, rest of the apps will be separate mission to make them to work. One for Adobe Flash, one for Moonlight, one for Youtube. One for UI sounds. Etc, etc. I do not really want to go this way
Thanks!
