[Mactel-linux-users] Low audio (macbook 4.1) 82801HD - snd_hda_intel

[Pol H. <ma...@fu...>]

Hi all :-)

Using debian testing with kernel 2.6.26 and alsa 1.0.16, I added 
in /etc/modprobe/ a file with:

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=mbp3 index=0 position_fix=1

so, audio runs correctly but the volume sound is too low :-/

I already checked amixer, alsamixer and the volume sounds are at maximum.

Is there a different way to increase the volume?
Thanks!

I hope this isn't a stupid answer, 

Sound for me was extremely quiet until I turned up "Front" and enabled
"Speaker". 

This wasn't shown in alsamixer and I had to enable it specifically. 

(gnome-volume allows you to do this easily)

Play around with the volume controls a little bit if this doesn't work.
(Maybe your not changing
Snd-hda-intel. 

Hope this helps.

Grr, I'm on too many lists with header-munging and accidentally took
this off list...
Since it worked for Pol, I'll accept the humiliation of admiting to my
ctrl-R not ctrl-L habit, and recap:

Pol wrote back and said that it worked; was able to maximize the level
using paman.

Dont' worry :-D
Using paman I could maximize over 100% the maximum level of volume and now can 
try to relax :-)

Later I'll search for a shell tool to set permanently this level of volume.. I 
already saw a console tool but I don't remember its name.

Tell me if u've need any help :-)
