No sound with Asus Xonar DGX with Pulseaudio without Alsa
Hi.
I would like to ask for some advice and help. My topic is related to this one:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=196632
I put the same topic name because in fact, it is somewhat similar, but not so closely. I would like to ask for help because this thing that happened to me is strange. But first thing first.
On my Arch setup i use mainly Pulseaudio with some libs that allow program that needs Alsa to run fine - Skype needs it so i hae pulseaudio-alsa installed. Everything works on my old sound card, that was Creative XFI Extreme Gamer - it is PCI device.
Because of stupidity of my brand new motherboard - Gigabyte Z170 HD3P, i need to replace my Creative XFI Extreme Gamer, because motherboard can't see my Adaptec and Digitus raid cards based on Silicon Image SIL 3132 (but it sees older one based on Silicon Image SIL 3114 and it is an PCI device) PCIEx1 devices. I come to a solution, or rather workaround. I will replace my Adaptec and Digitus PCIEx1 devices with Digitus PCI device but in order to do this, i need to replace also my PCI sound, mentioned above, to something with PCIEx1. I bought an Asus Xonar DGX - PCIEx1 devices.
Asus on Windows works ok. With Arch i have problem. This is default Pulseaudio setup:
1. Pulseaudio configuration section
http://imgur.com/zOFYome
It is in polish but you can see that in "konfiguracja" (configuration) Xonar is being seen and CMI sound chip is being recognised.
2. Pulseaudio out devices
http://imgur.com/w88nw8k
As you can see, there is my Xonar, there is CMI sound chip. This is where problem started. In section below, with Port name is something called "Słuchawki" - headphones. That's the main problem. See pictures bottom.
Please look at this:
3.This is screenshot from alsamixer with Xonar
http://imgur.com/f57KtES
4.This is also screenshot from alsamixer with Xonar
http://imgur.com/Gkten8W
Please look closely at the third column from the right side to the left side. It is named:
-Stereo Headphones FP
-Multichannel.
My problem, my question is with these two options. I have sound, everything works ok but only when option "Stereo Headphones FP" was changed to "Multichannel" (i saw this on some website, suggesting this).
So, my question is - how to change this option, on a system that uses only PULSEADIO. I'm not able to change it by pavucontrol, because on pavucontrol (picture 2) there are only headphones ("słuchawki") and this box can't be changed, scrolled down or something in order to change "headphones" to "multichannel". Is there a way to change outputs mentioned above without using alsamixer and alsa-utils? If i do not install alsa-utils, i won't be able to change outputs of my Xonar and i won't have sound at all.
Why there is no sound? Because this section refers to headphones for front panel. Pictures 3 and 4 shows that left column named "headphones" is at 100% but there is no sound comes from jacks till i change "headpones FP" to mentioned "multichannel".
I want to be able to do it without alsa, alsa-utils and alsa related software. It is possible?
Thanks.
Something more - one last question. Why using Pulseaudio needs alsa-tools, alsa-utils? In fact, removing pulseaudio should be better because if i need alsa, i could use only alsa, not pulseaudio that requires alsa tools. That's not the Arch way, not something called KISS. Am i wrong here?
Why i won't use alsa? Becasue updates alsa broke my sound. No sound at because order of outputs from hdmi from my graphic card was being changed and swapped with my sound card - i created /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf with indexes for cards but it was not used when booting at all.

Re: No sound with Asus Xonar DGX with Pulseaudio without Alsa
Pulseaudio uses ALSA's drivers, you can't avoid having some form of ALSA on your system. Usually switches like these can be configured by switching the profile (what other options do you have aside from audio duplex on the configuration tab of pavucontrol?), if this isn't possible you will likely need to use alsamixer, however I generally agree with your sentiment, and for pure volume control it is better to use pulseaudio's capabilities directly. What you can do, if you are bent on going without any ALSA tools, is write a proper pulseaudio profile configuration for your audiocard and the toggleable mixer's you want to expose [1] [2] (I will be getting a Xonar DGX, so I might go ahead and tackle this in the next few weeks if I find the time)

Re: No sound with Asus Xonar DGX with Pulseaudio without Alsa
I'm currently not able to check this things but thanks for your time.
I in pavuconotrol i have a lot of outputs named like:
-5.1
-4.1
-5.1 + IEC
-5.1 + analog input
and so on. But sound is only when in alsamixer i change Headphones FP to multichannel.

Re: No sound with Asus Xonar DGX with Pulseaudio without Alsa
Out of curiosity, because of this thread:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184525
and the one otption:
amixer sset 'Analog Output' 'Multichannel'
# or
amixer sset 'Analog Output' 2
# both untested, you would have to figure it out yourself if those two do not workIt is possible to do this with pulseaudio? I tried playing with pacmd sinks, but profiles from pulseaudio does not allow to change anything, at all, to multichannel. There are like these:

[firekage@Arch_BX_100 ~]$ while they said about "Multichannel" in alsa and in fact, changing "Stereo Headphones FP" to "Multichannel", works, so it is possible to choose it with pulseaudio?

Re: No sound with Asus Xonar DGX with Pulseaudio without Alsa
Those flip switch like controls have never easily been switchable in pulseaudio iirc, it's not exclusive to this card, e.g. my earlier card had a Auto-Mute switch to keep speakers on/off on headphone plugin which I also had to flip in alsamixer or amixer. But when I read those links I posted correctly one should technically be able to set something up so that this becomes switchable via pulseaudio profiles, from what I gather those files don't really exist yet for this card so we would have to write them. I have my Xonar now so I'm going to experiment some

Re: No sound with Asus Xonar DGX with Pulseaudio without Alsa
I tried to play with pulseaudio profiles but all of them are something like
-analog output
-analog oputput + digital input
-51 audio channel output and so on
There is no single one named "multichannel". "Multichannel" is only visible in alsamixer and related to "Headphones FP" - one output, two possibilities to choose from. Pulseaudio and tools for it, like pavucontrol and so on, won''t allow to change it. KDE alsa sees only "headphones".
