Its time to freak out for me
First of all, I'm not a linux newbie and I allways managed to handle my problems by myself. But "ODO" on my htpc was such a pain in the ass, that I decided to stay on windows cause i couldnt get things work on linux.
I have an Asus P5kpl/1600 mainboard with an "VIA VT1708 B" sound chip and i really know this chip is the mainproblem.
I was so happy when i was reading the news about dharma and many many sound-fixes, so i decided to try RC2.
But after some testing ( ok, only just tryed some basic mixer-settings and stuff ) I still cant get it work. There is just NO LIGHT on the digital output.
So .. here I am, without any big Idea, asking for your help.
aplay output will follow
aplay -L
aplay -l
