p5wd2 sound card problem

hi, i have an asus p5wd2 motherboard with realtek alc882 audio (hda-intel) and alsa 1.0.10, kernel 2.6.15

mi problem is that from the front speaker connection i get a buzzing sound, very ugly... also im currently using only the rear connector and does't sound too good, some sounds are very distorted

my modprobe.conf has this alsa entries:

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel

in my rc.conf i load snd-hda-intel snd-pcm-oss

any help apreciated

Re: p5wd2 sound card problem

modprobe -r snd-hda-intel
modprobe snd-hda-intel position_fix=1
Restart udev and alsa.

For more information (since you will likely have issues with alsamixer/ kmix as well) look here

Re: p5wd2 sound card problem

i couldn't do this: modprobe -r snd-hda-intel, so instead i put in modprobe.conf: options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 and reboot

the sound problem is still there, did it wrong?

by the way how can i restart udev?
