| rileyp | If do a backup of my current system and then dump the db and then a full restore could this possibly fix any issues I'm having | 12:15 |
| rileyp | with regard to myth starting very slow up to a minute to get to starting screen and live tv crashing | 12:16 |

| ComradeHaz` | 'lo all. Could someone tell me how to set the default sound device, please? | 19:12 |
| superm1 | it's in the general section of frontend settings | 19:13 |
| rhpot1991 | about 3 pages in I think | 19:13 |
| ComradeHaz` | Um, I meant for the whole system | 19:19 |
| ComradeHaz` | so that when myth is set to use default sound devices it uses what I have set system wide as the default | 19:19 |
| superm1 | that depends on if you are running ubuntu or mythbuntu | 19:22 |
| superm1 | on ubuntu the sound system is pulseaudio, which myth can use in a limited fashion | 19:22 |
| superm1 | you should just set the myth sound device as the pulse audio option | 19:22 |
| superm1 | if you are running mythbuntu, then you need to configure it to be ALSA:default | 19:23 |
| ComradeHaz` | I am using mythbuntu | 19:23 |
| ComradeHaz` | Yeah, that's what I don;t know how to do. | 19:23 |
| superm1 | if you want to configure it system wide in mythbuntu, you'll need to create an asoundrc file | 19:23 |
| superm1 | in ~/.asoundrc | 19:23 |
| ComradeHaz` | OK. What do I stick in it? | 19:24 |
| ComradeHaz` | and for what user? | 19:24 |
| ComradeHaz` | default user? | 19:24 |
| superm1 | before you create this though, lets try to understand why you are wanting to do this to make sure it's the best solution though | 19:24 |
| ComradeHaz` | I have just bought an external USB sound device http://www.richersounds.com/product/cd-players-recorders-dacs-cassette-decks/cambridge-audio/dacmagic/camb-dacmagic-08-sil that I want to use instead of the onboard audio device | 19:25 |
| Zinn | [www.richersounds.com] | 19:25 |
| ComradeHaz` | I have tried disabling the onboard sound in bios, but it seems not to allow this for some strange reason. | 19:25 |
| superm1 | ah | 19:26 |
| superm1 | that make sense | 19:26 |
| superm1 | so i might have another solution for you that might be easier then | 19:26 |
| ComradeHaz` | Shoot! | 19:26 |
| superm1 | take a look at lsmod output, see which sound modules are loaded (They start with snd_) | 19:27 |
| superm1 | likely your onboard is using snd_hda_intel and the usb is using snd_usb_audio or so | 19:27 |
| superm1 | if that's the case, you can create a blacklist file in /etc/modprobe.d that blocks the onboard audio support from loading | 19:27 |
| ComradeHaz` | http://pastebin.com/kG4ttSx2 | 19:29 |
| ComradeHaz` | That about what you expected? | 19:29 |
| * ComradeHaz` tentatively pokes superm1 | 19:37 | |
| mrand | ComradeHaz`: he may be away from the computer right now... so give him a few hours ;-) | 19:38 |
| mrand | (but that single poke was fine) | 19:38 |
| superm1 | ComradeHaz`, yeah i had to run away for a quick meeting, it's the middle of my work day | 19:46 |
| superm1 | that looks like it's expected | 19:46 |
| superm1 | so you would just want to create a blacklist file in /etc/modprobe.d | 19:46 |
| superm1 | you can look at some of the blacklist files in there for examples | 19:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | I have added 'blacklist snd_hda_intel' to my /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file | 19:46 |
| ComradeHaz` | is that correct? | 19:46 |
| superm1 | yeah i think that's correct | 19:46 |
| superm1 | run sudo update-initramfs -u | 19:47 |
| superm1 | and reboot and it should take effect | 19:47 |
| ComradeHaz` | A'ight, I'll reboot and see what happens! | 19:47 |
| ComradeHaz` | Ooh, ok, thanks | 19:47 |
| ComradeHaz` | oh dear superm1, I seem to have created a problem :( | 19:55 |
| ComradeHaz` | On reboot first odd thing was it didn't autologin and start frontend | 19:55 |
| ComradeHaz` | had to enter password. | 19:55 |
| ComradeHaz` | second, running alsamixer yields 'cannot open mixer: No such file or directory' :S | 19:56 |
| ComradeHaz` | ah, scrap that first issue | 19:59 |
| ComradeHaz` | Hmm, something's not happy :( | 20:18 |
| * ComradeHaz` thinks he has managed to break things quite nicely | 20:40 | |
