Yes, I have an ICH4 chipset, and I'm using the onboard audio controller. I hoped to get it working Windows-like with PA... maybe it's just a matter of trial-and-error before getting it to work properly
Under Windows I don't think I can swap channels, but I have to check; anyway, my 'problem' is posted here because I come from Windows (and still use it), if I tried Windows coming from Ubuntu, I'd probably say that Windows swaps my channels
As far as I can use MPlayer to have a 'correct' output, I don't complain too much (since I notice channel swapping only with real 5.1 audio, not with upmixed stereo); but one question arises: if the channel swapping is a common problem, why doesn't it get corrected? No flaming purpose, here, I just wonder...
Thanks for your replies
Right, I have chatted with the bods on IRC and apparently I was right, you have to do it like this. This is what you had:
Code:
load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0 sink_name=AC97 channels=6 channel_map=front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right,front-center,lfe
load-module module-remap-sink sink_name=RealtekALC650.Playback master=AC97 channels=6 master_channel_map=front-left,front-right,rear-left,rear-right,front-center,lfe channel_map=front-left,front-right,front-center,lfe,rear-left,rear-right
load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:0,0 source_name=RealtekALC650.Capture channels=2
You must replace that with:
Code:
## load sink
load-module module-alsa-sink device=hw:0,0 sink_name=AC97 channels=6 channel_map=front-left,front-right,front-center,lfe,rear-left,rear-right
## load source
load-module module-alsa-source device=hw:0,0 source_name=RealtekALC650.Capture channels=2
and forget module-remap-sink completely, it isn't needed.
This SHOULD work. Let me know if it does.
