Does it have linux drivers?
I’m guessing you’ll be using dsp/console or something like that - don’t know the limits or how to do it exactly.
HI, cris,
by default it is using ALSA driver i am able to record and play sounds files on it.
Thanks
Roopesh
it should work fine if i works in ALSA. I am using a 8 channel sound card as well with Asterisk, and it works okay. Type ’ aplay -l ’ and post it here ill help you set it up.
Hi ds77,
thanks for reply
here is the output of the aply -l
[root@localhost ~]# aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: M1010LT [M Audio Delta 1010LT], device 0: ICE1712 multi [ICE1712 multi]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0

hmm seems only one subdevice there, normally there should be all 10 of them.
in any case you can try and configure asterisk with chan_alsa, or just load chan_alsa by either enabling it in modules.conf or just go to asterisk and ‘module load chan_alsa’ that should load the channel driver for the soundcard and you should be able to use it as a normal channel.
i am not sure if the card is configured correctly as it shows only one subdevice, on my system aplay -l shows like 8 subdevices, one for each channel of the soundcard.
Hi ds77,
Thanks
can you tell me which linux your using?
i am new to alsa and asterisks.
if i run the alsamixer then i am able to see 8 channels.
i just added this card in my system and rebooted it. it is automatically get configured. is there is any special setting for 1010Lt card.
if you want then i can switch to RHEL5.
can you send me example files of modules.conf file.
Thanks
Roopesh
Hi ds77,
can you send me the configuration steps for 1010lt cards?
thanks

hi
your linux is fine, it doesnt matter which linux you use, im using Centos 5.
As far as i know you might need to configure alsa with the specific card drivers, but maybe it works using the ICE1712 chipset.
as for the modules.conf, just edit the existing modules.conf within asterisk, you will see a part there ‘noload =>chan_alsa.so’ or things like ‘load => chan_oss.so’.
Just make sure ‘noload=>chan_oss.so’ is set and ‘load=>chan_alsa.so’ so that will make sure chan_alsa is loaded
then restart asterisk and type ‘show channeltypes’ you should see a Console channel there.
you can then try do dial it by dialing making an extension to Dial(console/dsp) and it should dial the card.
where are you based, if you need help i can try to look at it for you.
hi ds77,
i am in NOIDA,DELHI(india)
if you are in india then, i can call you?
i did the changes as per your instuction. it is using alsa default channel.

no im not in india, not sure whats going on there, maybe its not hanging up properly or something.
lots of things to check i guess im not sure how to troubleshoot this over a forum, do you have access or can the machine be accessed remotely or something is it
Hi
at present
machine access is not possible, for that i have to take permision.
if you want then i can send you configuration files.
one more thing is that in my system .asoundrc file not present.
as wellas /etc/asound.conf is not present. as pre alsa document it is neccesary.
if possible can you send me your .asoundrc file then i can manage here.
Thanks
Roopesh
Hi,
I got the permisions,
can you tell me at what time i shuld put the system on static ip so you can access the machine remotly.
Thanks
