Description Pierre Jarillon 2011-12-23 00:19:30 CET

I use a soundcard Midiman Delta 44 using envy24control and module snd_ice1712
After the last update at login the sound not works and a popup window says:

Application: KMix (kdeinit4), signal: Segmentation fault

In https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2124#c21 Marja van Waes says:
> Completely unrelated to this bug. Please install debug symbols for pulseaudio
> and kmix and regenerate the backtrace. Thanks.

And please open a seperate bug report for the issue (and point to comments 19,
20, 21 of this one) and attach the backtrace there.

Just a problem: pulseaudio-debug-1.1-1.mga2.x86_64 cannot be installed:
aria2 failsÂ : sortie avec 3

Comment 1 Pierre Jarillon 2011-12-23 01:22:27 CET

Perhaps related to Bug 1229
I need to start manualy envy24control, to set the DAC levels, and then, the sound works fine.
If I restart the session, I get the same error of kmix and I need to run again envy24control.
I just succeed to install pulseaudio-debug-1.1-3.mga2.x86_64

Comment 3 Colin Guthrie 2011-12-23 11:45:59 CET

Seems like your debug media is out of date. The latest version of PA debug is: pulseaudio-debug-1.1-3.mga2.x86_64 (note the 3).

Also don't forget to include the kmix debug symbols too.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

Comment 4 Colin Guthrie 2011-12-23 11:47:54 CET

Incidentally, kmix should not be doing anything active anyway, so I'm surprised to see a "workaround with envy24control".... what eactly do you have to do in envy24control? Can you make the same changes with "alsamixer -cN" (where N is the number of your card - typically 0 or 1)?

Please also attach the output of "pacmd ls" and "lspcidrake -v"

Created attachment 1629 [details]
Output of lspcidrake and pacmd

With Mageia 2 beta 1, after a fresh install, in envy24control, the "Analogue Volume" was set to 0. After setting the volume to an upper value, it works.
Alsamixer -c1 works fine and mix also :-)

In the attached file are the output of lspcidrake -v and pacmd ls

IMO, the bug can be closed. The only restriction is that hdmi level is 100% and tne analogue volume is 0%. It would be better to put all outputs to 50%. With this, the will be working out the box.

Hi,

This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment.

Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2.

Thanks :)

Cheers,
marja
