How to Get Sound from a PCI Sound Card?

MiaoMiao · 2024-07-31 14:04:20

I installed a PCI sound card (which only has Windows drivers) in my computer, and there's no sound at all on Arch Linux. However, the PCI sound card is recognized in the audio devices. How can I make it produce sound?

I tried to modify the default sound card, but I'm not sure if there was an issue with my operation, resulting in no sound still.

What exactly did you try? Just press the button in the GUI?

What outputs do you get from

aplay -lL
amixer -c0 #Replace 0 with the index for your actual card
pactl list cards
pactl list sinks
pactl list sink-inputs

I pressed the button in the GUI, then attempted to reset ALSA and modify the default sound card.

The card is present and should generally be working. Does

speaker-test -Dhw:2 -c2

not give you noise? The fact your posting a qpwgraph but your pulseaudio is handled by pulseaudio could also point to a service conflict

sudo fuser -v /dev/snd/*

assuming you see both pulseaudio and wireplumber there you probably want to replace pulseaudio with pipewire-pulse

I’m still not getting any sound. It doesn’t seem like there are any service conflicts. I'm quite new to audio devices, and when I asked others for help, they suggested checking qpwgraph. I’m not sure how to proceed with that.

One thing I’ve noticed is that when switching to this sound card output, Chrome and Firefox websites that play audio and video directly can’t play. It feels like the audio buffer write fails (or whatever it’s called).

pipewire and pulseaudio conflict, you should resolve the conflict by either of

- install pipewire-pulse to replace pulseaudio (preferred by many)
OR
- remove everything pipewire crelated except libpipewire and use pulseaudio exclusively

(there are a few other options like switching to pure alsa or pure OSS , but those are only used by people who have specific needs/reasons) .

I tried the previous suggestion, but unfortunately, there is still no sound.

I doubt support under Haiku OS is relevant for (arch)linux .

This chipset has been around since approx 2007 and is supported by linux since kernel 2.6.0 .

On the links posted below a program called envy24control is mentioned that can configure the card.
That program is in the alsa-tools package and even has an arch wiki page.

Install alsa-tools and check https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Envy24control ., then experiment .

MiaoMiao, this card appears to be intended for professional audio usage, do you have xp with Pro Audio stuff ?
