How to set sound device(sound card)

i have 2 sound cards one - integrated on MB and one on PCI.
I want with Java to use in some cases first in some cases second. How could I set one of them for usage?
Am I need JMF or ther e is any other general setting to change preffered sound device(with java of course) for whole system(windows in my case)
thank you Stoyan

As I know you should add the devices to the jmf registery and after that to make that your application will choose the preferred device list.

Show us
cat /proc/asound/cards
This is what I use for ordering the HDA based cards in my system, index=0 is Maudio Audiophile. So you would need to use index=0,1 and use the correct model and probe mask for the nvidia card. Mine is ATI SB Azalia, and a nvidia GT430 with GF108 chip.
options snd-hda-intel index=1,2 model=6stack-dig,auto probe_mask=-1,0x108

Hi Angelo,
Thanks for replying. When I rebooted the system and got into
"Solaris Device Configuration Assistant" it printed out:

Is the sound card one of these?
The sound card has a Vortex II chip on it.
From the main window, I chose "Programs", "Audio",
and the error message I got is:
/dev/audioctl
Could not open stream to audio device
There is no /dev/audio file.
Thanks lot for your help.

How to disable sound card on A20m...Is there a BIOS option?

I'm trying to use an after market sound card but I think I'm having conflicts even when disabling the Crystal sound in the device manager. Anyway to disable it in the Bios?

Welcome to the forum!
There is no BIOS option for disabling the sound card, but you can:
a) Un-install the drivers for it and see if it helps.
b) Change the IRQ setting to see whether that removes the conflict you were referring to.
Good luck and let us know.
Cheers,

How to restore sound card to default on late 2012 mac mini??

I have a late 2012 mac mini with a sound card that is not working right? The issue is the line-in is not working at all, and the microphone is grayed out, like its disabled?? Please Help!!!

The only ways any Mac Mini could have a microphone, since there is none installed:
1) if you have a display with built-in mic; or
2) have an external camera, with built-in mic.
An iSight camera, original FW400 model, has a built-in microphone. Some Cinema
or wide displays with their own speakers and extra ports, may have a built-in Mic.
A newer Thunderbolt 27-inch or 27-inch LED Apple, has built-in iSight or facebook
kind of camera and those include a microphone.
So while nobody doubts a microphone would be necessary for a local voice input to
a Mini Mac; there is no reasonable doubt of built-in mics, as no MINI model had any.
With that off the table, the other information already presented is worth revisiting...
A reset of the SMC/PRAM may help an actual hardware or software (firmware) issue;
but, it cannot reconnect with a non-existent 'built-in' accessory where none is present.
The system profile hardware information in the Mac OS X will show all the components
and their software aspects, as does most published information on the entire Mini line.
If a reset of the System Management Controller, or Parameter Random Access Memory,
fails to change the situation, try both of them again. Carefully & deliberately. And then,
if there is no traction and the peripheral aspects of other accessories which would be
most likely to include built-in audio input are also double-checked for function, you may
choose to inquire of an expert, product specialist, Authorized service provider, etc and
have them perform tests to see if there is some other hardware failure involved.
Good luck & happy computing!

How to enable sound card for users(Solved)

It's ok now.
Thank you for your help.

ALSA: Setting default device (Not card, but device)

This seems to be a riddle that nobody can solve;
- The system only has one card by the name of 'Intel'
- That card is the regular 6 3.5mm jack soundcard.
- I have a mic plugged into the red microphone plug
- I open up Audacity and go to preferences, there are two microphone plugs, 'hw:0,0' and 'hw:0,2'
- I have no idea where 0,0 is and it doesnt make any sound, I plugged the mic into every plug on the board and nothing records.
- i can set Audacity to use 0,2 and then it will record my voice just fine
When I open up xfce's mixer I see that there are two mic plugs:
Apparently "Front Mic" is the device that is hw:0,0 right now/
Now when I play Savage2 I don't have an option to choose the device, I can choose the soundcard but that doesn't help. How do I set the default Device so that the game uses hw:0,2 in push-to-talk?

from the alsa archwiki:
"Setting the default Microphone/Capture Device
Some applications (Pidgin, Adobe Flash) do not provide an option to change the capture device. It becomes an issue if your microphone is on a separate device (i.e. USB webcam or microphone) than your internal sound card. To change only the default capture device, leaving the default playback device as is, you can modify your ~/.asoundrc file to include the following:
pcm.usb
type hw
card U0x46d0x81d
pcm.!default
type asym
playback.pcm
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
capture.pcm
type plug
slave.pcm "usb"
Replace "U0x46d0x81d" with your capture device's card name in ALSA. You can use 'arecord -L' to list all the capture devices detected by ALSA."
EDIT: maybe i didn't read your post well enough.. im just guessing here but maybe you can replace card U0x46d0x81d with
device name_of_device..
maybe..

Linux FF34 - How to set sound levels to a lower default?

The FEBE firefox extension plays a beep sound when it's backing up. My backup is at midnight on a Sunday and the PC is in another room, but the noise when it beeps nearly lifts the roof offo fo my house. Likewise, there are many sites where the site set the sound volume to a default Full Volume such as this one https://grabien.com/story.php?id=19088 (try it) and I see this:
http://i.imgur.com/PVAhbYE.png << THe CubeUtils.
It always starts off at MAX VOLUME. How do I change the default volume to always start at say 30%?

You have my empathy! This used to be obvious in versions before Mavericks. Does Apple's silence on this mean they are becoming more Microsoft-like and removing convenient features? That the question of 8 people has gone unanswered for 8 months is unconscionable.

Using the internal sound card with good optical A/D converters?

Dear Logic users, I have two questions:
1) I was wondering if the internal sound card of my MacBook is of such quality that I can achieve good results if I bought a good A/D converter with a digital output to plug directly into the optical line in of the MacBook? E.g. the Samson C-valve http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=1651&brandID=2 along with the M-Audio Co2 http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/CO2-main.html to convert the coaxial S/PDIF to optical? (Same procedure for the line out signal, with a D/A converter of course.) Or is the internal sound card of such inferior quality that I should stick with my current MBox 2 Pro? My initial thought was that if the signal is kept within the digital realm, it is really the A/D converters that determine the sound quality, and that the internal sound card of my MacBook does little less than calculate the digital signal. Maybe someone with a more intimate knowledge of how the internal sound card works with digital I/O could chime in?
2) If the above mentioned approach would be feasible, suggestions of other A/D and D/A converters would be most welcome.
The reason for this is to be free from the driver issues that sometimes occur with external hardware, especially with software/OS upgrades.

If you are recording Midi using loops and all it wont make a difference in having a AD/ converter. as everything you are doing is in the box.
However if you want to get a Analogue signal into the computer then its a different case, and I'm not talking about using Optical from a keyboard, and even if i was you would need to have a converter anyway,
even though i am talking about Recording Vocals or Live instrument!
This is where the Converters come into play, be aware Converter and sound-cards are two different source of hardware,
anyway Back to Converters on live vocals this is where the AD comes into play,
transferring Analogue Signal into Digital,
and also getting used to the sound of the converts, or even liking the the sound of the converters/soundcard which is always going to be subjective and which also shares a relation with Near-field monitors,
you change your monitors and it seems as if your sound changes that is how tight the relation is between the two.

How do you set a usb sound card as the default sound device for all programs?

I'm running cmus for a music player and it works fine with the internal speakers on my macbook pro. I'm using a usb sound card for a set of 5.1 surround speakers and cmus won't send it's audio to the usb sound card. I've also tried several other programs for audio and it seems to be hit or miss with being able to use the usb sound card. I'm not sure if I'm overlooking the a setting or if there is a different audio output plugin for cmus that has the functionality I need. Cmus also won't play over any bluetooth audio device while some other sounds will.

Yes I did and it does not appear there. Only the ringtones I have created myself and the default ones appear in the list.
In settings>sounds>ringtone however they all appear

How to set default sound card?

Every time I start up my mac, I have to go the system pref -> sound and select my firewire sound card.
My question is there a way to select a sound card and make it default so I don't have to do this procedure over and over again?
Your help is appreciated!
Yosemite Away!

I suspect the reason is that the system sound card is selected before FW is even active. But it would be better to ask the maker of the FW card if it's possible to change this so the setting is sustained through restarts.

Setting ALSA sound card system wide (rather than just in KDE)

Hi,
I've got an HTPC with an ATI Radeon HD 4350 graphics card running Arch x86. It has its own integrated sound card for outputting audio via HDMI, which is detected by ALSA as a separate device. I've managed to set it as the default audio device in KDE 4 (via System Settings). This allows applications such as Amarok and SMPlayer to properly output audio to the HD 4350's integrated sound card, but software such as Flash and MPlayer (from the command line) are still outputting audio to the motherboard's built-in sound card. How can I change this setting on a system-wide level? I've tried running alsaconf as root and adding
pcm.!default {
type hw
card 2
device 3
to ~/.asoundrc; I got the card and device numbers from aplay:
[htpc@exia ~]$ aplay -l
