| zequence | sancho_panza: You adjust that in pulseaudio settings | 14:55 |
| zequence | pulseaudio is the desktop audio server | 14:55 |
| zequence | !proaudio | 14:55 |
| ubottu | For information on professional audio tools in Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuStudio/ProAudioIntro | 14:55 |
| zequence | Pulseaudio is mentioned there | 14:55 |
| zequence | The tool you want to make these adjustements is pavucontrol | 14:56 |
| zequence | Since you didn't mention which audio server, I just assumed pulseaudio. | 14:56 |
| sancho_panza | i removed pulseaudio 'cause it wouldn't let me do that | 15:04 |
| sancho_panza | i'm using alsa and QasMixer now | 15:04 |
| sancho_panza | but still can't choose my usb audio card as my default output source | 15:05 |
| zequence | sancho_panza: I assure you that you can choose any supporte audio device as default in pulseaudio | 15:10 |
| sancho_panza | i'll try to reinstall | 15:10 |
| sancho_panza | zequence, i reinstalled pulseaudio and pavucontrol | 15:20 |
| sancho_panza | zequence, i can't choose my usb sound card from the last | 15:21 |
| zequence | sancho_panza: The list? | 15:22 |
| sancho_panza | zequence, the LAST meaning pavucontrol :p sorry if i made it confusing | 15:22 |
| zequence | sancho_panza: Is your usb card among the possible outputs? | 15:23 |
| sancho_panza | yes | 15:23 |
| sancho_panza | pcm2904 | 15:23 |
| zequence | So, there's a green button next to it, with a white check mark | 15:23 |
| zequence | When you hover over it, it says "Set as fallback" | 15:24 |
| zequence | Not very intuitive, but that is how you select a default audio device | 15:24 |
| sancho_panza | oooh | 15:25 |
| sancho_panza | ok thanks | 15:25 |
| sancho_panza | but, i can't listen to anything right now xD | 15:25 |
| sancho_panza | even with my laptop integrated speakers | 15:25 |
| sancho_panza | :l | 15:25 |
| zequence | You need to restart any already opened applications for them to use that | 15:25 |
| zequence | You mean, you have no sound at all, whatever you choose? | 15:25 |
| zequence | In the "Playback" tab, you can select the output for individual applications, while they are running | 15:26 |
| zequence | Good way to test the audio devices. Also, check the volume level | 15:26 |
| sancho_panza | working now with usb interface | 15:27 |
| sancho_panza | i'll play with it later, thanks zequence! | 15:27 |
| zequence | sancho_panza: You're welcome! | 15:27 |
| sancho_panza | i have a training session to end :PP | 15:27 |
| sancho_panza | have a nice day! | 15:27 |
| zequence | You too! | 15:27 |
