Hey all,
When I purchased a motherboard for my Myth setup, I ordered something
with known Linux compatibility and a coaxial output. Turns out, the on
board unit is actually USB, and it is not well supported, and the coax
doesn't work at all. (so sad).
So, I went out and purchased a Roland Edirol UA-1EX. It supposed to
be supported well. Well, lo-and-behold.. even alsa's speaker-test does
not work on all six channels. I have tried all versions of also since
1.0.16. This problems is really frustrating, and I've received no help
from Alsa-users on it after 2 months of inquiries. I've nowhere else to
turn with that issue.
Anyway, I'm tired of fighting these problems and I want to purchase a
sound card that works. I have the following requirements though:
Must have optical, and MUST be PCI-e. The only slot I have left is a
PCI-e.
I am looking at Creative Labs SB X-FI Titanium PCIe Sound Card, but I am
uncertain how well the optical is supported, or how well it works at all
with linux.
Looking for any advice, or firsthand experience.
Thanks!
Jason
