[Alsa-user] Unable to get Audigy 2 Plat. (non-Ex) to respond to IR

[Clay B. <cla...@gm...>]

I use udev and ALSA 1.0.9b, and my sound card is an Audigy 2 Platinum
(not Ex).

I am trying to set up lirc, but I have not been able to get my ir port
to respond to my remote.  I have tried several sets of batteries, and am
looking for any output on /dev/midi and /dev/midi*.

When I load the module I get:
HAL_5000D dev # modprobe -v snd-emu10k1
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/acore/snd.ko cards_limit=1
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/acore/snd-hwdep.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/synth/snd-util-mem.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/acore/snd-page-alloc.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/acore/snd-timer.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/acore/snd-pcm.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/pci/ac97/snd-ac97-codec.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/acore/seq/snd-seq-device.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/acore/snd-rawmidi.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.13-ck3/alsa-driver/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1.ko
enable_ir=1

...so I'm pretty sure the /etc/modules.d/alsa settings are getting passed.

When I check my loaded modules, I have:
HAL_5000D dev # lsmod

...so I'm at a loss as to what to try next.
