<br>>4. Sound works nicely in myth, I even have surround sound. I have sound<br>>transferred to my audio system via s/pdif optical cable. I get no sound<br>>out of any of my games (mame, pc, etc) -- what did I screw up?
</blockquote><div><br>Do you have alsa set up to send sound to S/PDIF by default? If not then you'll probably have to configure MAME and your other games to use the right output, much like you did for MythTV.<br><br></div>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Do you have an asoundrc file? I had to configure everything to output<br>48KHz, otherwise no sound from my optical. Surround sound already is 48KHz
<br>so it will work without an asoundrc file.<br></blockquote></div><br>Some cards can output 44.1KHz too. Actually I'd expect most to - mine certainly does and it's the cheapest card I could find with S/PDIF out.
