Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Hi all, I have an ASUS motherboard M4A78LT-M-LE.

Its front panel audio jacks were not detected in arch and ubuntu 11.10 before that.

But i just dual booted ubuntu 12.04, and i see that the front panel audio is now working there.

Please guide me on what package/setting i need to install/upgrade/tweak in Arch to get it working here. Thanks!

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

If the audio device is working under Ubuntu, just compare the settings (modules loaded, background applications running, kernel messages, versions of relevant system components, etc.) and try to recreate them in Arch. That's how I've been solving hardware detection issues.

ALSA.

Check out the archlinux wiki page on alsa, or for more details alsa has it's own extensive wiki.

If/when you have problems, come back with the output of the diagnostic commands in the wiki and/or a description of how far you were able to get.

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

"Bumping" is not allowed. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … te#Bumping

If ALSA doesn't cut it, maybe you should try PulseAudio.

I have made a personal commitment not to reply in topics that start with a lowercase letter. Proper grammar and punctuation is a sign of respect, and if you do not show any, you will NOT receive any help (at least not from me).

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Sorry about bumping...

About alsa not working, any and all other linux distros I install in my system have no problem detecting the front audio.

Even in arch, if I connect the headphones into the front panel before booting, I hear a small electronic burst in the headphones while arch boots.

So i'm pretty sure that there is some setting that I'm missing.

It would be great if somebody points that out to me....

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

What is in the alsa.conf file in Ubuntu (where sound works)? What about aplay -l there, or /etc/asound.conf?

(basically what bohoomil told you in post #3 -- you have two distros; sound works in one and does not in the other. What is different between the two?)

Have you seen this topic?

On my hp desktop I had to change snd-hda-intel to "hp" to make the front panel jacks work. According to the topic I linked, there are several possible options for ASUS.

And of course the obvious question -- have you checked alsamixer to make sure the front panel jack is not muted?

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Thanks for posting that info mankand.  I was hoping for an alsa based solution - but it seems you are using pulseaudio.  While I've had to learn a few things about alsa (with help of other members here), I know nothing about how pulse works.

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Hi Trilby.. It would do just fine for me to switch over to alsa from pulseaudio if you could provide some guidance on how to properly remove the whole audio and reinstall/configure it...

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

You mean like this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … chitecture

and this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pulseaudio

Did you try checking your Arch audio config files against the Ubuntu files?

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Actually i'm not able to boot into my Xubuntu 32 bit. Could you point me to the correct way to chroot into a 32 bit ubuntu from 64 bit arch?

I found this,
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … bit_system

but what are the differences i need to make with my current situation?

I have now removed alsa and trying to install/configure alsa from scratch...

Any special tips i need to follow? any special file i need to delete before installing alsa again?

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Are both installs on the same machine? You don't really need to chroot into Xubuntu -- you should be able to mount the /root partition of the Xubuntu install and look at the config files.

For example, if the root partition of Xubuntu is /dev/sda4, just do this (in your Arch install)

sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt

Now you should be able to go look at the files in your Xubuntu root partition by just prefacing everyting with /mnt:

ls /mnt/etc/modprobe.d

Did you stop pulseaudio and remove it? The rest of it should be in the wiki; just follow step by step and don't skip anything.

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Thanks for the advice.

Here is the alsa-base.conf from Xubuntu. Should i copy the same into /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf in Arch?

Edit: I removed Alsa and Pulseaudio (didn't stop them first sad before removing). I reinstalled alsa-firmware, alsa-lib, alsa-utils, alsa-plugin. The front panel audio is still not available...

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

No, don't copy files from Xubuntu to Arch -- that's almost guaranteed to cause problems.

Now we're back to square one (or post #9) where you listed all the files you have now, asound.conf, aplay-l, etc. And you start alsamixer and make sure the headphones are not muted.

Does the rear panel audio still work?

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

One more thing -- did you run alsamixer and make sure all the levels are up and the headphone slider is not muted?

We are rapidly reaching the end of my sound knowledge here...

If no one shows up with an easy answer, the next step is to search the forum for "front audio not working" -- there are a number of threads with several solutions...

Re: Front audio jacks not detected in Asus Motherboard

Did you try these suggestions for forcing the model type.

If none of those works, try adding the generic line
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1
to /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf
