if i set retrovol to default or hw:o where the intel card is the default then i can't use the usb card.

the dragonfly needs to be set as the default audio card.

switching index values in alsa-base did nto work. as soon as i set retrovol to default, with the usb sound card not plugged in, it crashes, and i can't run retrovol again until i plug in the usb card. the problem here is really the particular sound card i'm using. it was designed to only work when i...

i made incremental progress again. the default sound card is still usb but i can switch between cards in deadbeef with causing problems. the only thing missing now is that the only output option in deadbeef is intel front speakers. there is no way now to select the intel headphone output. asound.con...

you're right i didn't need to run alsawizard. as of my previous post i have both the internal sound card and the usb sound card working. the only problem now is when i unplug the usb sound card. since it is set as the default, when it is unplugged retrovol then sees no sound modules and will not run.

that worked.

problem is now switching between soundcards, and if the usb sound card is not connected retrovol won't work at all.

i'll stick with alsamixergui for now, seems to be the easiest thing unless i can get retrovol working when the usb card is not connected
