[Alsa-user] configuring asoundrc

[James C. <cl...@jh...>]

i'm tryin to get audio to work on a new board.

so far nothing i've tried works.

aplay -l reports:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 7: HDMI 1 [HDMI 1]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 8: HDMI 2 [HDMI 2]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Generic [HD-Audio Generic], device 9: HDMI 3 [HDMI 3]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Generic_1 [HD-Audio Generic], device 0: ALC888-VD Analog [ALC888-VD Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: Generic_1 [HD-Audio Generic], device 1: ALC888-VD Digital [ALC888-VD Digital]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

my goal is to default to the first one in that list.

[time passes; looks like i found a partial solution...]

this:

pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card Generic
    device 3
}

ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card Generic
}

reports:

aplay: set_params:1349: Channels count non available

but some gui apps succeed, so that does not seem fatal.

nonetheless, any ideas on how to fix that?
