<DIV><SPAN class=718081121-20102004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm back to working
again but I'm stuck with a problem I had ages ago concerning the VIA 82xx sound
on my mobo.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=718081121-20102004><FONT face=Arial size=2>What happens is whne
I go into live TV I get no sound. The problem is caused by the IEC channels on
the soundcard. There are 3: IEC958 (a switch), IEC958 Output (a switch) and
IEC978 AC97-SPSA (a slider). Everytime LiveTV starts the IEC958 switch gets
turned on. This causes the lack of sound. If I run alsamixer and turn it off or
run alsactl restore from another terminal the sound comes back, until I exit
LiveTV and come back in.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=718081121-20102004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've thought it
might be a build problem so I rebuild the alsa mods from source but I get the
same problem.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=718081121-20102004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've got a work
around in which is a script which checks the status of the IEC958 switch every 5
secs and turns it off if its on using amixer but its a bit of a hack. I did fix
this when I first built the system but I just can't remember what finally
cure</FONT></SPAN><SPAN class=718081121-20102004><FONT face=Arial size=2>d
it.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=718081121-20102004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've tried running
both the back and front ends in consoles with verbose logging on and couldnt see
anything bad, neither in dmesg or /var/log/messages.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=718081121-20102004><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm running FC2 with
the 2.4.22-1.2199.nptl-52.rhfc1.at kernel from atrpms and the box was built as
per Mr Wilson's guide (Jarrod - cant say thanks enough (again) !) except for
alsa which I build from source. The only other things I've done are a channel
load script to populate the channel table and a renamed second lirc install to
control my SkyDigi Sat box.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
