Is anyone playing with a NUC and NOT using OE? So far I've had issues getting the boot record properly setup but got past that. Now I'm trying to get sound working over HDMI and as usual it's a hassle so I'd like to network with others. I've yanked PulseAudio off the load but ALSA is proving troublesome per usual...

I'm tempted to go OE but I really like being able to pull code from Git to compile myself :-(

Sure, I'm on Arch and here is my asound.conf:

Code:

defaults.pcm.card 0
defaults.pcm.device 7
defaults.ctl.card 0

Don't think you need more than that, I'm not using Pulseaudio.

Sadly this isn't working for me. I setup both an asound.conf in /etc and an .asoundrc in my home directory - no joy. Alsamixer only shows SPIDIF as my default (still) and the usual analog on the second card. Speaker test gives the output below. None of the GUI mixers show any outputs for some reason or fail to run. I suspect this is something silly, I'm still learning Linux - the hard way - and this isn't my first head banger with ALSA. Having trouble getting my shell script to execute on boot to fixup the remote too but that's far less critical and likely even more silly!

Code:

speaker-test 1.0.25

Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 1 channels
Using 16 octaves of pink noise
ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:1018:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
Playback open error: -2,No such file or directory

Trying this all on Mint but as I said before not wedded to it however I DO want a full desktop and dev environment loaded so OE isn't my first choice at this point.
