[PlanetCCRMA] Newbie trying to set up Quattro

[Mark Knecht]

OK, I'm no guru, but I don't see where anything is getting loaded to
tell Alsa the Quatro is installed. Don't you need an Alsa USB audio
driver?

In the modules.conf file below the Shuttle's 8x0 sound chip is index-0,
so it will be the default device that gets sound duties. (I think) 

Maybe I'm missing something, but I think that you'll do better when you
get some more audio stuff in this file. From the Alsa page on the Quatro
I see:

# ALSA portion
        alias char-major-116 snd
        alias snd-card-0 snd-usb-audio
	# module options should go here

        # OSS/Free portion
        alias char-major-14 soundcore
        alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
	
	# card #1
	alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
	alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
	alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
	alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
	alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss

So you'd want to add some of this (not all!) to your modules.conf file
but changed for snd-card-1. (Or make the Quatro snd-card-0 and change
the 8x0 to snd-card-1.

Good luck,
Mark
