Alright, Linux newbie here. I have tried out some distros before and ran ubuntu 6.06 and 6.10 for a bit. I downloaded 7.04 last night and I must say I love it. I only have one problem. My subwoofer isn't working. I have a sound blaster audigy SE and I'm trying to get my bass to redirect (because that's what I had to do in windows) and ALSA doesn't seem to offer any options for that unless I'm missing them somewhere. I found drivers for my Audigy SE but gently caress if I know what the hell that page even says. Any help would be appreciated  EDIT: Here's the page I found with drivers and info on my card in linux: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=Creative+Labs&card=Sound+Blaster+Audigy+SE.&chip=CA0106&module=ca0106 Daedalus256 fucked around with this message at 17:28 on Apr 24, 2007 |

I still can't get my sound working properly. Now, it's not working at all. After I realized that my Audigy SE probably wasn't going to work in linux, I just enabled my onboard AC'97 audio and booted into ubuntu. hosed around with the plugs and yay subwoofer! I began to play with it more and realized that sound was utter poo poo. I was getting massive amounts of distortion because there was no way for me to do a bass redirect so that most of the bass goes to my subwoofer. So it sounded like poo poo, I hosed around in the ALSA mixer for a while before giving up and trying my Audigy SE again. Rebooted with plugs in my Audigy and when I boot back in, I have zero sound! I can't even get test tones to play in the sound preferences! If anyone have any idea what's going here, I'd appreciate the help.

fischtick posted:When you re-enabled the Audigy, did you disable the on-board sound in the BIOS? I had a bunch of problems like this with my on-board sound and my audigy2: Everything worked great on the first boot. Sound came out of my headphones, which were plugged into the Audigy. Muck around a bit and do a reboot... no sound. I ran kmix (kubuntu user here), and manually selected the audigy, still no dice. Finally disabled on-board sound in the BIOS, and KDE made a nice bleep noise on the next reboot and has been fine ever since. Yeah onboard sound is disabled. Ubuntu did make it's little drum intro sound when I started it up, but no startup sound after that and no sound in anything in feisty whatsoever.
