Thank you for your script. On Linuxmint Debian Edition, compiling failed with errors like
But I'm on a 64 bit install. So I modified line 331 in AlsaUpgrade-1.0.25-3.shCode:/usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-2-common/arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:59:24: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘void’ /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-2-common/arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:97:24: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘void’ /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-2-common/arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h: In function ‘clear_bit_unlock’: /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-2-common/arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h:121:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘barrier’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

This (1.0.25-3) all worked very well indeed on 12.04 - thanks very much indeed.
I have a Creative XFi Fatality card, with a front panel (I/O driver panel). This includes a headphone socket, and an SPDIF out socket (as well as sundry others which I use from time to time but haven't tried lately, such as Midi and additional analogue inputs). The SPDIF out works fine now, which is really useful.
However, I can still find no way to get the headphone socket to work on ubuntu. On Windows (I am dual-booted - for now at least) there is a switch you can set to get the headphone socket to override the speakers. In the past several people have said there is no support for the front panel, but for digital out there now clearly is some, and I had hopes for the headphones.
I have checked 1.0.25 is installed. Alsamixer shows the rear panel connections but not the front panel ones.
Unfortunately judging from the log errors I'm getting from the software I'm trying to run (XBMC) 1.0.25 ALSA appears to be required for sound playback. I'm attempting to confirm this with the developers now as up until their latest code changes this wasn't required. They have pushed out some changes to their code audio code that I'm compiling now in hopes that this fixes it for now.
Oh and I have used the 1.0.24 script but updated it for 1.0.25 and gotten the above error. The issue isn't your script I'm afraid but rather ALSA failing to compile on the installed kernel - no PPA version available either. IF I'm required to run the latest stable ALSA I may have to downgrade the kernel and then try your script again. I may also be forced to move to 11.04 at which point I'll be pulling my hair out getting rid of Unity I fear. I'll also likely be having to create, again, an .asoundrc file to get hardware working unless this ALSA performs some magic.
I gotta' say, and I know it's not your fault, sound on Linux (still) seems to be a real mess! Your script appears to do everything right near as I can tell and for that I thank you. I had just hoped for a solution that doesn't force me to make major changes to my systems (yes multiple machines).
I get choppy audio or no audio at all.

Ideally, I want all audio (e.g. from VLC, Flash in chromium, etc.) to come out of pc speaker, except for skype whcih should use my usb headset.

Installed 1.0.25 upgrade on Precise Pangolin and works perfect.
Thank you for your work!
Hello,
The script is not working for me .. it fails when using -c and gives me :
alsa-oss-1.0.25 not found
I have : Linux deb64 3.2.0-2-amd64
I have tried the older script .. no luck .. says : alsa-firmware-1.0.24.1 not found though I have downloaded this package from source, compiled it and installed it.
Any clue ?

I have not completed the scrip steps ... my mixer is functioning again and also sound.
Thanks
