[14:50] <sancho_panza> hi, does anybody know how to use an usb soundcard as the main one?
=== likevinyl is now known as LikeVinyl
[14:55] <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
[14:56] <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.
[15:04] <sancho_panza> i removed pulseaudio 'cause it wouldn't let me do that
[15:04] <sancho_panza> i'm using alsa and QasMixer now
[15:05] <sancho_panza> but still can't choose my usb audio card as my default output source
[15:10] <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
[15:20] <sancho_panza> zequence, i reinstalled pulseaudio and pavucontrol
[15:21] <sancho_panza> zequence, i can't choose my usb sound card from the last
[15:22] <zequence> sancho_panza: The list?
[15:22] <sancho_panza> zequence, the LAST meaning pavucontrol :p sorry if i made it confusing
[15:23] <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
[15:24] <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
[15:25] <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?
[15:26] <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
[15:27] <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!
