[Alsa-user] UA-4FX problems

[Isaac <za...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I'm having a lot of trouble with the Edirol UA-4FX USB/MIDI soundcard
in Ubuntu Gutsy. I saw the UA-3FX listed and hoped that the 4FX would
also work...

ALSA: 1.0.14

I tried the following:

aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 1: UA4FX [UA-4FX], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

cat /proc/asound/modules returns:
 1 snd_usb_audio

I created a modutils file called 'alsa' and then ran update-modules:

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-usb-audio

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias snd-card-1 snd-cmipci
options snd-cmipci id="first" mpu_port=0x330

# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1

# card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

I also added


snd-usb-audio

to the end of /etc/modules.


However, typing alsamixer just sends an error message that it can't
load because there isn't a default soundcard! please help!

Regards,
Isaac
