diebuntuI have a problem with my volume keys (fn keys). When I first installed Ubuntu my volume keys were not working I followed the steps on a website and I got them to work.16:00
diebuntuAfter the first time I opened Ubuntu Studio Controls they stopped working completely again.16:01
diebuntuAlso I had sound coming from the speakers but not from the headphones. Then after some meddling with the USC, I got the headphones working but the speakers stopped working, they said "unavailable".16:03

Eickmeyerdiebuntu: Are you wanting to run Jack or PulseAudio right now?16:19
diebuntuI want to run PulseAudio all the time and Jack only when I'm using Ardour/Rakarrack/Hydrogen/Guitarix16:22
Eickmeyerdiebuntu: Then, go into Ubuntu Studio Controls and click "Stop Jack". That will put things back to normal. Then, to get your volume control buttons back, open a terminal and type "killall xfce4-volumed && xfce4-volumed". That should do it.16:23
EickmeyerIt's a known bug with xfce4-volumed.16:23
EickmeyerWe (the Ubuntu Studio team) have no control over fixing it.16:23
diebuntuThank you! That fixed that annoying bug.16:24
Eickmeyerdiebuntu: You might have to do that every time you stop Jack.16:24
EickmeyerI know I do.16:24
diebuntuI can't test the other thing yet, because I'm in a library, but I'll do it as soon as I can.16:28
studiobot<Go_Diego_Go> I'll report from here, my Telegram account.16:28
studiobot<Go_Diego_Go> Thank you!16:28
EickmeyerWait... @Go_Diego_Go == diebuntu?16:29
studiobot<Go_Diego_Go> Yes, that's me.16:29
Eickmeyer@Go_Diego_Go: Cool! The other problem can be solved in AlsaMixer. It's an auto-mute thing.16:30

georgioshi!20:05
georgiosi finally managed to install kubuntu-minimal, change kernel, add the ppa get some software and be ready to rock :P20:06
OvenWerksCould be... have you run ubuntustudio-controls on that?20:07
georgiosyes but i dont understand something20:08
OvenWerksok20:08
georgiosat the moment the only device i want to use is a usb 2-way stereo thing20:09
OvenWerksok.20:09
georgiosit happens that my videocard has hdmi audio output. and this think puzzles me while configuring the controls20:10
OvenWerksWhere is that presenting a problem20:10
georgiosit appears everywhere20:11
OvenWerksAssuming a new -controls version, in the audio setup tab, The second pull down from the top (USB device to use as Jack master) should show your USB device.20:12
georgiosit is not as expected when i am setting the master device20:12
OvenWerksdo not worry about the master device at the top.20:13
OvenWerksThat is for internal audio and if USB is selected as Jack master, it overrides the top.20:13
georgiosok then :)20:13
OvenWerksAlso, you probably want to set Default PulseAudio Output Device to "Jack Master"20:14
OvenWerksIf, for some reason, your USB card is not plugged in, then the top choice will be used instead until a USB device is detected.20:15
goldtopHi_ completely new to irc, pls be patient! Ubu-studio user since 2014, Ubuntu loaded with ardour before that. I am a big fan but not a programmer, a prof musician by trade.20:30
OvenWerksgood stuff20:32
goldtopMy prob is getting firewire connection to RME fireface 80020:32
OvenWerksYa, firewire is a problem these days.20:32
OvenWerksThey have added alsa drivers for Firewire devices.20:33
goldtopWorked great w my audiofire, no prob20:33
OvenWerksFrom what I hear they don't do routing like the old ffado drivers do20:33
goldtopFFado wont connect- says dbus is busy20:34
goldtop20:35:36 logginghandler: Could not communicate with the FFADO DBus service...20:35
OvenWerksYes, the only way to use ffado is to first blacklist the alsa fw drivers and un-blacklist the ffado kernel modules20:36
OvenWerksI would like to get my hands on almost any FW device so I could try it out and figure out a mostly automatic work around.20:37
goldtopooooh, sounds good but how do you do that? as i say i aint no programmer but not afraid..20:37
goldtopWhere are you? Im in London20:37
OvenWerksIm on Vancouver Island in Canada20:38
goldtopCool. Shame, cos I would have said play w mine!!20:40
goldtopSpent time in Ontario, 7 yrs in fact but never made it west. The ex spent a few years out on the island, and she always talked about it with great fondness20:43
goldtopAnyway back how do i go about getting ffado up or do i need a tech at my end?20:44
OvenWerksThe fdirectory /etc/modprobe.d/ has a blacklist-firewire.conf in it.20:46
OvenWerksActually Maybe look at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/JACK_Audio_Connection_Kit#Firewire20:47
goldtopok ta, ivestigating..20:48
OvenWerksIt has a list of modules to blacklist. and suggests a file name for the file20:48
OvenWerks then rename the blacklist_firewire.conf to *.fnoc20:49
OvenWerksI think that would disable it.20:49
goldtopThats great, thanks. will let you know if it works!20:51
