Hi guys,
I have a ASUS Xonar DGX PCI-E GX2.5 sound card since my onboard audio crapped out on my motherboard. I just did a first time install on my desktop and the rear portion of my card refuses to work. If I connect up my speakers to my analog output in the back I don't have any options in my sound manager for the analog output to just be a 2.0 system. I get 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1. All of which do not work obviously. Also my microphone doesn't work plugged into the actual card. If I plug them into the front panel audio, both the microphone and headphone out work. I did some searching, and it seems like a likely cause has something to do with amixer being multichannel. I tried several commands but wasn't successful in getting the audio to work through the back. Any help would be useful, I'm still trying to learn a lot about Arch while doing all this. Thanks in advance!
Solution. Using Alsamixer in terminal and selecting the analog out as stereo headphones, instead of stereo headphones (fp).

Are you certain this card is supported? Edit2: I do not know every model, does this qualify as standard DGX?
Take a look here:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184525
Edit: Provide some information like in the referenced thread.

Elaborate, provide some links or other reference.

I did look at that link, which is why I was confused as to why my front panel audio worked but the back didn't. It seemed the direct opposite of what I was hoping for. I also looked down that path of patching the drivers for the kernel, which I don't know if it would have helped but that was a bit over my head as far as figuring out what to do.
This is the link I was following but didn't lead me anywhere https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184525
Also looked at this https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=156502 but didn't find anything helpful in it.
This is the link that I read in regards to patching the kernel https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1399867
I don't know if this will help, but here is a link to my actual card http://www.asus.com/Sound_Cards_and_Dig … Xonar_DGX/

As stated above, please provide more information:
aplay -lL;
lspci -nn | grep -i audio;
lsmod | grep ^snd;
systool -v -m snd_oxygen;
amixer;It is probably snd_oxygen. This will also help others find this thread.

That amixer output is really short for such a card. Have you searched alsa-user and alsa-developer mailing lists? If no, you definitely should. Skimming through oxygen.c is seems your card is being recognized as the reference card, which is consistent with lspci output, so standard oxygen, where there are at least references to the dgx model. You could try patching it to see your card as dgx:

/* Asus Xonar DG */Remember, I only skimmed through this might not work at all.
The file is located at linux-sources/sound/pci/oxygen/oxygen.c. You would have to patch, compile and install it, then reboot with the new kernel. I used linux-rt sources from AUR for this "patch", my copy could be outdated however.

So I'm not 100% what to look for in the mailing lists? I searched through the archives of both user/devel and didn't find anything pertaining to my soundcard. Not sure if that is what you meant for me to do.
So I'm still pretty new to arch, I've never done anything like patch a kernel before. I looked through
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernels
in the patching section but I don't even know where to begin. I'm assuming the above lines of code is what I am supposed to patch my kernel with?

Search for vid and pid combination, ergo 13f6:8788 in your case. This should be one of the search terms, vid and pid could be also separated, other search terms could include oxygen, sonar, dgx and so on. Simple google search should turn something up.
Edit: The point is to locate a thread/post where the support for this card was implemented/talked about. It could provide some further insight.
The simplest approach would be to download linux-rt sources from aur with yaourt, modify PKGBUILD, compile and then install.
yaourt -G linux-rt
cd linux-rtCopy this into PKGBUILD replacing the original:

As for the patch, should there be no real difference there is also MODEL_XONAR_DG, might be worth trying out.

Ok here is what I did
I searched for those terms but I didn't really find anything I thought to be useful. It might be due to my inexperience so I apologize for that.
I installed yaourt and got the linux-rt file.
I edited my PKGBUILD with your above lines of code.
I then in the same directory did
nano 0007-asus-xonar-dgx.patchI copied and pasted the above code and saved it. Then I did
Archer% makepkg
/home/taylor/Documents/AUR/yaourt/linux-rt/PKGBUILD: line 9: realtime: command not found
/home/taylor/Documents/AUR/yaourt/linux-rt/PKGBUILD: line 69: syntax error near unexpected token `)'
/home/taylor/Documents/AUR/yaourt/linux-rt/PKGBUILD: line 69: `kernel param)'
==> ERROR: Failed to source /home/taylor/Documents/AUR/yaourt/linux-rt/PKGBUILDwas the output

I edited my MAKEPKG with your above lines of code.
I posted PKGBUILD not MAKEPKG. You can always patch it manually and makepkg without extracting.

I edited the PKGBUILD it was a typo in my above post. I'll fix it
Offline
The 9-th line is
#pkgname=linux-custom # Build kernel with a different nameSo it is commented out, check if you copied everything correctly. I was able to compile the package successfully.
Those are the changes (diff PKGBUILD.org PKGBUILD.mod) between original and edited PKGBUILD:

Are you saying I should remove the comment out?
I copied it straight from the browser so there was no chance of a typo.
Also, where I counted from the 9th line is
realtime patched -rt kernelUnless makepkg doesn't count blank lines... then you would be correct.

No, I meant it had no meaning, since it is commented out. Then formatting might be corrupted (xclip -o > PKGBUILD) or you are missing something, a dependency for makepkg, check the wiki.

I ran xclip -o > PKGBUILD, which erased everything in the file. Then I recopied the above lines back into the PKGBUILD. ran makepkg, same errors. I did check the wiki, and it seems like the only dependencies that are used in makepkg are in base and base-devel. Both which are installed.
Offline
man xclipYou were supposed to use it for the copying from clipboard after selecting the PKGBUILD. I see I have to upload the file somewhere.

I think your nano is configured to wrap long lines (toggle with Esc-L by default), that would explain the above behaviour, that we wasted so much time upon. Apparently my mathematical skills and perception are still good, since according to pastebins line counting, it was the 9-th line. Think nothing of it.

Ok, that worked It's compiling right now. So after this I install the kernel with pacman and reboot? And hopefully it will work? Also, will I have to include this patch every time my kernel upgrades?
Offline
Pray to all gods that you know, that it will actually make any difference. I would lower my expectations, imagine what luck it would be if the module would not load at the end. The sound card could work in the same manner, so this is just a long shot. As stated above, I only skimmed through the source file. There might be more tinkering necessary or as last resort asking on the alsa-user mailing list for help.

Ok that seems like a good plan of attack. I think this is the last real issue that I had with the install so getting this to work would make me really happy. Thanks for the time you have devoted thus far. I appreciate it! I know it can be frustrating teaching us new kids but I am slowly learning more and more about Arch!
Wow you weren't kidding about how long this was going to take. My my.....

Alright. So I installed the kernel, rebooted and unfortunately no change....so now I go to the alsa-user mailing list?

Are you using the linux-rt kernel? 'uname -a' Is the output of amixer exactly the same? Well, asking there will not hurt, so go ahead. Maybe someone here has the same card however or at least a similar one with the same issue. I would troubleshoot further with the previous module.

I talked with the group. Turns out the audio needed to be set to headphone non front panel. And I couldn't do that with the sound settings, I had to use Alsamixer. So sound works now which is awesome! I'll change this to solved, and edit the top post in case anyone else runs into this issue. Thanks again for the help emeres.

I wonder why this option did not show up in amixer. Could you check various amixer switches? I probably missed something here. That would help in the future. You are welcome.
