no way to change line-in, line-out, mic-in to 5.1 [SOLVED]

Dear fellow developers, first of all you guys are great. I try to get rid of Windows completely and your distribution is the best for me as a non-pro user of linux since it is really comfortable to use and I can get run almost everything on it (I am no gamer) except one thing: my 5.1 pc-surround-system. I have a new gigabyte h410m s2h motherboard. As many new boards you have 3 multi-functional phone-jacks in the rear. 1x for line-in or rear speakter out, 1x line-out or front speaker out, 1x mic- in or subwoofer speaker out. In windows you can switch the function of every single phone-jack by the realtek audio software. In mageia you cant. So that the system detects only the line-out which means there is only 2.0 sound available. Is there any way to get the 5.1 surround sound running or could you develope this please? I am sure I am or wont be the only one with this problem since probably several mainboards have this gimmick. (With my old mainboard which had only 3x line-out for 5.1 system my speakers worked well under mageia) Thanks a lot in advance for you help! Sorry for my English. :-) Best Regards

Please check that you have the package "pavucontrol" installed. Open "PulseAudio-Volumecontrol" from menu. Go to the tab "configuration" and chose the best profile for your internal audio.

Hi there, you can change the profile of your soundcard to 5.1 output, using e.g. pavucontrol or the mixer of your desktop environment.
In pavucontrol in the configuration tab you would need to choose the correct 5.1 profile for the soundcard where the surround system is attached.

For some more details, have a look at e.g. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PulseA ... nd_systems

Thank you guys for your quick response. Unfortunately that doesnt help me, cause wether in the audio setting nor in the mixer or pavucontrol I cant choose analog 5.1 surround sound. There are only options for analog stereo, analog stereo duplex and several digital surround sound options via hdmi. On hdmi I have my beamer pluged in and my surround sound system has only phone jacks. As I have written above the line-in pin has to be switched to rear speaker out and the mic-in pin to subwoofer speaker out as it is discribed in my mainboard users guide. In windows I can do that by the realtek configuration software in mageia I cant. Mageia detects the line-in only as line-in (not as a rear speaker output) and the mic-in only as mic-in (not as a subwoofer output). There is no way to switch the function of these two phone jacks as it is possible in windows in the realtek software. If you have any further ideas how to manage that with the present software I would be very thankful, but it seems like it is a case for development. I dont believe I am or will be the only one with this problem. Can you please help out or report to a developer please? I hope I described my problem well. Dont hesitate for asking me more questions. Greetings from Dresden ;-)

Can you attach a screenshot of the configuration tab of pavucontrol after clicking on the dropdown menu for your card so all the profiles are listed?

Would be appreciated if you can add the outputs as regular user of
Code: Select all
LC_ALL=C pacmd ls
grep -i codec /proc/asound/card*/codec*
lspcidrake -v | grep -i audio
dmesg|grep hda

I would like to take a screenshot, but with an open drop down menu mageia doesnt take it. I tried it with the print key and GIMP. Can you tell me how to take it? There are a lot of options in the drop down menu, but unfortunately no analog 5.1 surround (3 phone jacks), only analog stereo and digital surround sound over hdmi. I can take only a screenshot without drop down. See attachment.

these are the outputs:

Code: Select all

lspcidrake -v | grep -i audio

With the program "spectacle" you can also take screenshots with time delays, so that drop down menus get captured. This program is installed by default on Mageia 8.

Please put all console outputs in "code" tags when you edit your posts here in the forum. This will make your posts better readable.
Code: Select all

That could be an autoconfig problem, you could try with one of the module-specific options for your codec, check https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ ... -1150-1220

Create the file /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf with the following content
Code: Select all
options snd-hda-intel model=lenovo-y530

e.g. if you have a Lenovo Y530 or similar. Then reboot and try again.

You could also try the hint from https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Softwa ... ntspeakers

Thanks man! But unfortunately both hints didnt help. I have an ALC887 codec, but none of the modules there. I have a desktop pc with a new gigabyte h410m s2h motherboard. This is the link to the manual: https://download.gigabyte.com/FileList/ ... -s2h_e.pdf

Also the second hint didnt work. I modified the deamon.conf as described and tried other things too, there where still the same options without analog surround.

As you can see in the manual on page 11 there is analog 5.1 surround sound available by using the phone jacks, but you need to change the ability of the mic in to subwoofer/center out and the line in to rear speaker out. Under windows i could do that by using the realtek settings software, but in mageia pulse audio doesnt has the ability to change the function of those two phone jacks. I guess that not only this mainboard has this special option and many or most surround sound speakers are working analog. Is there any hope for that pulse audio or mageia support that in future? Or do you have any other idea to make it work? (sounds dramatic when I write like this, but the only other option is to buy a soundcard with analog surround sound and hoping that pulse audio take it)

There's no special support from pulse needed for that, the problem is with the codec and the driver for it. If the auto-detection doesn't choose the correct model
then some things like jack sensing or something what you're trying to do won't work out of the box. Sometimes it's even dependent on what you have currently plugged into the card.

FWIW, I've got a Realtek 1150 codec and the analog surround options are available here, without any special changes.

Here are some links with related issues with that codec, you need to try what works for you:

You can also try to run alsamixer then select your card with F6 and see if there are any other settings that help.

Hello Doktor, thanks for your help! I made it finally. I used the Terminal for opening the alsamixer, then select my soundcard with F6 as you mentioned and then go left to the option "channels" and select 6 instead of 2. Then I opend pavucontrol and finally found the option 5.1 analog surround sound. That was all. Thanks man for guiding me to the solution! :-) Have a good day!
