[Solved] No sound from saa7134-TV-Card

Hi everybody!
My Desktop-PC (bought in 2004) has got a TV-Card. It is a Philips 7134-Chipset: PC-Combo Modem/TV-Tuner CTX908, TV-Tuner CTX910 Video is working out of the box, sound isn't.
MOD_AUTOLOAD seems to have loaded the correct modules, as I get video in tvtime and in xawtv.

Unfortunately I couldn't get the sound to work so far. It is not possible, to pass the sound via an external wire to the soundcard, as the tv-card has no external outputs.
modprobe tvaudio
didn't have any effect. When I change the volume in tvtime, in kmix and alsamixer the "line"-lever moves accordingly. And: Yes, it is unmuted. I had this problem before (on Debian) and depending on the version either
sox -c 1 -w -r 32000 -t alsa hw:1 -t alsa hw:0
or
sox -c 2 -s -w -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -w -r 32000 /dev/dsp
did the trick. This is also what google, the forum search and several wikis proposed.
But now, the first command gives back:
sox soxio: Can't open input file `/dev/dsp1': No such file or directory
and the second command gives back:
sox soxio: Failed reading `hw:1': cannot open audio device
I wanted to avoid fiddling with the
tuner=n channel=m
options, as it didn't have any effect earlier (on debian) and right now video is running smoothly. Never change a winning team.
I hardly think this might matter, but the TV-encoding system is PAL (Germany) and it's cable-tv.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
cheers

Do you have the module saa7134-alsa? I have a hybrid card with that chipset, and don't use the analogue often but I think I had to explicitely load that module for sound to work.

    If I understand you correctly, you have installed all required alsa packages and tried to configure. What doesn't work is attempting to push up the volume via alsamixer/aumix etc., unmuting also does not work.
    Am I correct?
    If so, you may have a similar issue to what happened to me a ways back. Is your current kernel up to date? The problem I had involved the fact that my sound card (though it was extremely common and, well, sh*tty) was affected by a feature regression in the ALSA code and an incompatibility with kernel in what was then [current]. I had to wait for the kernel to catch up to ALSA to do anything, but the regression had to be fixed before I could do anything useful.
    Moral of the story (also known as the 'tl;dr' or 'too long; didn't read' version) - Try updating your kernel if all else has failed. If nothing useful comes out of that, try searching the ALSA site.

  • [Solved] No sound from VM (Windows 7) on qemu with virt-manager

    I posted this in Newbie corner,
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=176131
    but let me re-post here becase it is about sound matter.
    I have installed Windows 7 (64bit) on qemu with virt-manager.
    It seems that audio works fine inside the guest os, but I can hear no sound.

    According to

    I did as follow before launch the VM, but it doesn't solve the problem.
    export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=alsa

    - #user = "root"
    + user = "taro"

    Self reply.
    Finally, I got to hear sound from windows 7 as guest OS.
    I gave up to use virt-manager and launches OS image by command line
    like follows.
    % export QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=alsa
    % qemu-system-x86_64 /mnt/win/win7qemu002 -cpu kvm64,+nx -enable-kvm -m 1536 -soundhw hda -usb
    Then, sounds works good.
    # However, the quality is bad because of heavy CPU load.
    Virt-manager may make things complex..
    Sorry for the duplicated post.

  • [SOLVED] No sound from sound card

    I'm going to be quite brief about this, because the details have been repeated so often in many other threads. Just recently (as in a few hours ago), my laptop (ThinkPad T31) is no longer producing any sounds, despite the card being recognized. Trying to troubleshoot this issue, I tried a variety of different solutions I had found during my research:
    Some info:

    in /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf
    There were actually many more things that I have tried while sifting through all of the past forum posts relating to this issue, but I won't go into to much detail. Could anyone explain what I need to do, or at least point me in the right direction? I am absolutely baffled, especially considering I had not updated anything before the problem occurred.
    EDIT: I also tried a different kernel, in this case kernel26-lts, which, again, produced no results.

    Nice catch! Unfortunately, the PCM channels have never worked for me (I use 'Master'), so I always keep them muted. I tried unmuting them without any luck.

  • [SOLVED] No sound from tv card with mplayer, only arecord/aplay

    So I finally got my Hauppauge 950Q usb tv tuner working with mplayer so I can see the video with this command:
    mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:norm=NTSC:input=0:device=/dev/video1:chanlist=us-cable
    but I can't get any sound unless I run this command simultaneously:
    arecord -D hw:1,0 -r 32000 -c 2 -f S16_LE | aplay

  • [SOLVED] No sound from speakers, headphones work (laptop, ALSA)

    Sorry about another "No sound"-thread . So, the headphones work just fine, I can play music or Youtube-videos or whatever but the speakers on my laptop stay mute no matter what I do. I even tested the speakers with a Ubuntu CD to check if I've broken them somehow.
    I've been having this odd problem for a week or so, I don't know since I usually use the headphones on my laptop anyway.

    Could it be a driver issue? I just need some cryptic parameter to some module, right?
    I've been playing around with alsamixer to fix this problem, maybe I've just messed things up a bit more? I really don't know much about ALSA, so the answer might just be obvious to some.
    Thanks!

    I found that Auto-Mute Mode was enabled and my headphones where plugged in all the time, disableing it solved the problem.

    It used to work (TM).

    I have no ~/.asoundrc and the /etc/asound.conf is the default that is written when pulse is installed.

    The nvidia section of the pulseaudio page on the wiki looks similar. I don't see anything in the instructions there that would make the solution nvidia-specific. I would consider giving it a shot to start here but replace "device=hw:1,7" with "device=hw:0,7".
    Maybe, the name of the section needs changing to something more generic than just nvidia. Eg, it may be more appropriate to call it just "HDMI Configuration" with a note about which cards it's known to apply to.

  • [SOLVED] Choppy sound with Intel audio card

    Ever since I bought this laptop and installed Arch, I have experienced this annoying choppiness.
    What happens is that when I highlight other windows, under the minimum memory/cpu load the sound is truncated. I can't listen to music pleasantly on my laptop, and I can't stand it.
    My laptop is a HP 530, with an integrated Intel audio card. This is the output from hwd -s:
    Sound(a) : 82801G ICH7 Family High Definition Audio Controller module: snd-hda-intel
    I have 1Gb of RAM, and the processor doesn't seem very busy when the sound is truncated. This happens under any DE/WM - even in tty!
    For what is worth, I had problems with the speakers not muting when the headphones were plugged in, and I have followed the method indicated here.
    Thanks for your time.

    Auto is the default, it might not be resolving the model correctly (that's the case with my laptop).  Try model=hp.
    If that doesn't work, you could try turning off power saving:
    options snd-hda-intel power_save=0

    alsamixer -c0 gives me my webcam (just mike)
    alsamixer -c1 give me the generic (posably my headphone jack)
    alsamixer -c2 gives me the HDMI, but it just shows s/pdif and s/pdif 1 through 3
    everything is on. just a side note, there's volume controls for alsamixer -c1 (volume as well as mute) but none for -c2, could this be part of the problem?

  • [SOLVED] No sound from JACK

    I recently set up jack2-dbus, and I haven't been able to get any sound output. Looking at qjackctl's connection's interface sheds some light on the issue. It looks like system is not a writable client. As of now, running any program which uses jack sends output to the PulseAudio Jack Source, which doesn't seem to be playing any audio. Is pulseaudio at fault here?

    Strange. I just restarted my computer today and now everything is working. The system entry appears in qjackctl's connections menu. Not sure what I did to fix it, but it seems like everything is in order.

  • No sound from tv card

    Hi!
    I can't seem to get sound from my tv card, but the video works fine. I have a Leadtek TV2000 XP Expert (like this one). The card uses the CX23880/1/2/3 decoder, and the kernel modul loads on boot (it has to be, because I get the video). The only problem is that i can't hear sound. I connected the audio output from the card to my on-board sound card over the cd input line. The card worked on opensuse, and pclinuxos, so I know it works. I just dont know how to set it up on arch.
    # lspci
    01:07.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder (rev 05)
    Here are 2 screenshots of my kmix, just in case you need it.
    BTW, I use arch for 2 days, and I like it a lot!

    I followed the directions here: http://inspirated.com/2007/04/05/alsa-l … th-mplayer and made the command:

    and now it works.

  • When i play a video or movie i get a buzzing sound from the speakers. how do i solve this problem?

    I get this  buzzing sound from my speakers when I play a video, or movie either from the internet or playing a DVD. What can I do to solve this problem

    A: There is no such thing as an unlocked iPhone 3Gs in the United States. ALL iPhone 3Gs's sold in the US are locked to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones, therefore it is not legitimately unlocked.
    B: Sprint is a CDMA network as others have mentioned. They do NOT use SIM cards. The iPhone 3Gs will NEVER work on Sprint. Ever. It's not physically possible.
    Either your Uncle misunderstood or he was mislead. Send it back and tell him to get his money back. Buy an iPhone in India from a supported carrier.

  • HP Mini 110-1160SA problem recording sound from sound card

    I am trying to record sound from the sound card itself rather than an external or internal microphone, using a free software called Sonarca Sound Recorder. For example, I play radio from the internet using the BBC Iplayer. I have Windows 7 Starter. When I use the Windows Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Manage Audio Devices, I get a window called Sound. I press the Recording tab, and get a choice of Internal Microphone, External Microphone, and Stereo Mix. According to my sound recorder software's documentation, I need to select that Stereo Mix, because it means "record whatever the sound card is playing". However, the Stereo Mix recording device, despite having a red tick mark next to it is "Currently Unavailable". How do I make it available?

    to be honest, i am not sure about your problems, normally, you need to set stereo mix as default device, then using recording devices to record sound on windows 7. Since you cannot make it, why not insall a virtual sound device, it works like a real one, install this streaming music recorder on your system, start recording. Just test it out by yourself.

  • [SOLVED] Playing sound simultaniously from wine and other applications

    I'm using Pulseaudio with the following packages installed:
    ~> pacman -Q | grep 'alsa\|pulse'
    alsa-lib 1.0.27.2-1
    alsa-plugins 1.0.27-2
    alsa-utils 1.0.27.2-1
    lib32-alsa-lib 1.0.27.2-1
    lib32-libpulse 5.0-1
    libpulse 5.0-1
    pulseaudio 5.0-1
    pulseaudio-alsa 2-2
    When running a wine application sound works, unless a linux application is playing sound. If that is the case, no sound is playing from the wine app until sound from the linux application stops (for example by pausing smplayer).
    Is there any way to make sound work simultaneously from wine and native applications?
    Other information that may be relevant:
    Architecture - x86_64
    Desktop - KDE
    Wine application - BabasChess
