Let's stop for a moment and start from the beginning, because now it is already like a puzzle for me too. Let me explain once more what I see you have and then you explain me where is your problem. You have 3 PCM devices configured: - pcm0: 7.1 playback via 4 rear jacks (Green, Black, Orange and Grey) + record from mic (front Pink), line (rear Blue), monitor (second mic, rear Pink), cd (internal Black) or mix (sum of all these). - pcm1: stereo playback via front Green jack. - pcm2: SPDIF output As for me, this configuration is correct and good enough. You can record from your line-in via pcm0 after selecting that source via `mixer =rec line` command. You can playback via SPDIF by using pcm2 device. So what's wrong? What are you doing and what is not working and how? > Also, the knobs that show up in xfce4-mixer are completely useless > for snd_hda(4) (every time I move the sliders it sets the volume back > to 0). Is this a known issue? You are the first. -- Alexander Motin
