Veromix sound manager profile not changing when pluging in headphones.

vaikus84 · September 20, 2014, 9:57am

Hello

Is there a way how Veromix sound manager could sence when I want to use my laptop speakers and when I want to use my stereo headphones?

Meaning that it knows when I plugin in my headhones, then it switches over to the Headphones profile.

Very much appriciated by

That’s not a veromix problem but a pulse audio not setup properly one, here is how to fix this issue:

1.- Open the file /etc/pulse/default.pa
2.- Edit the file and uncomment the line " load-module module-switch-on-port-available ".
3.- Enjoy

Wow. This actually worked! Thanks.

Your welcome…

Basically on the same topic. Is there a possibility to set the default first audio source in /etc/pulse/default.pa ?

My hardware is:

**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: HDMI [HDA Intel HDMI], device 3: HDMI 0 [HDMI 0]

I’d like “card 1: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: ALC292 Analog [ALC292 Analog]” to be the default source.
I don’t mind if I have to manually switch to the HDMI output.

Is your monitor connected via HDMI?

vaikus84 · September 20, 2014, 2:51pm

Yes it is. Because I need my VGA cable to be free when I want to do some work on old machines. And I have only this one Monitor to use.

AJSlye · September 20, 2014, 3:17pm

The change we just made will also effect the output device as the HDMI cable is plugged in and out, so I’ll have to look into it, for now you’ll need to manually change it back after plugging in that monitor.

vaikus84 · September 20, 2014, 3:21pm

I will do it that way then. Hope there is a more permanent kind of solution that is more convenient and automated.

I tried to see what the device list is with the HDMI unplugged:

Results are the same:

Technically an HDMI monitor or TV that follows the HDMI spec should have speakers / audio chips in them, if it doesn’t than this hardware manufacturer issue, not a pulse audio or a phonon one.

vaikus84 · September 20, 2014, 4:15pm

It is a computer monitor.
It has speakers built in.

After I did the pulse audio switch tweak you told me, I seem not to be able to send audio to HDMI
Does not help if I Set HDMI as “Default Sink” via the Veromix volume icon.

The weird thing is. When I go to the KDE main settings, it shows me that the Hardware chosen for use is HDMI.

[attachment=426]

leszek · September 20, 2014, 4:56pm

The KDE settings work only for Phonon Applications.
So if you are using VLC for example you need to set the audio output device there aswell. Or change the global settings with pavucontrol.

vaikus84 · September 21, 2014, 9:09am

So this means there is no way of using Veromix as the global sound output changer?

vaikus84 · September 21, 2014, 10:12am

Installed pavucontroll. It allows to change the sound outopt on the fly for the playing media. But the sound is a couple of tones higher pitched than normal. It also changes the audio speed with the pitch.

This also happened before pavucontrol to be fair.
Maybe an audio driver issue?
[hr]
My Audio Chip driver for windows is named like this:

Realtek ALC3226 High Definition Audio

leszek · September 21, 2014, 10:33am

It might be an pulseaudio issue together with your alsa driver.
So you might want to try the tsched=0 fix. Here is a short description on how to apply this fix:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/751265/comments/23

vaikus84 · September 21, 2014, 10:49am

Added this fix. No reaction Everything is the same.
And yes I did a reboot.

AJSlye · September 21, 2014, 11:39am

Phonon is compatible with pulse audio and does change it’s settings.

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Desktops/KDE/

First check the volume setting on the Monitor.
You might need to use alsamixer to check the volume levels for that output and to see if maybe they are muted.

Note: on some HDMI ports there are no hardware volume settings.

AJSlye · September 21, 2014, 1:54pm

What is your monitors make and model?

vaikus84 · September 21, 2014, 2:20pm

The monitor is not to blame here. Since I have tried it on my TV as well as my computer Monitor. And it has the same affect.

I know for a fact though that both of my HDMI cables are version 1.4a and both of them are tested and work fine on other hardware (i.e. a Gigabyte AMD Zacate board).
[hr]
Cloned back my Win7pro to my SSD. No problems with HDMI sound there.
Also no problems with sound switching to laptop speakers and back to HDMI( the tv in this case ).

So it is a driver/software thing on Linux.

AJSlye · September 21, 2014, 4:42pm

I’ve never had HDMI problem on any of my machines so far, it may just be a configuration problem.

Can you list all of your available alsa audio inputs and outputs: aplay -L
