Hi all and happy new year!
I have XBMC installed on a Fujitsu-Siemens PC with a built in soundcard. The soundcard works fine but it only support stereo and have no digital output.
I have an external Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX (SB0300) USB card that have all sorts of outputs that I'm trying to use instead of the built in soundcard, but no luck so far. According to Alsa documentation the alsa-driver is supposed to support this external soundcard.
Any ideas how to get it working?
(It might be just as simple as pointing XBMC to the other card, but I'm a newbie in Linux so I have no idea what it's enumerated as and such...)
I have tried to start XBMC with the internal soundcard disabled but with that configuration alsamixer wouldn't even start...
Thanks for your help with this! (If it's even possible!)
