Sorry, @CwF, but I do not quite get what you are asking. I put the two parameters "-d -i" in the result posted, so I am not sure what you mean by "find". Those results were not done as root though. Running the full exact same line you posted as root yields this additional informa...

@CwF: Your first step does not work for me: as actually shown in my original post using /dev/sr0 -> /dev/cdrom, and done of course with a good audio CD in drive

Just to be clear (for anyone else stumbling across this thread), I've also used brasero (the gnome/mate gui default) quite successfully to extract cue binaries from audio CDs. As I said, the "education" received here on the basics of audio CD file format has been extremely helpful. The sea...

Thanks for correcting my lack of understanding about what ISO 9660 really is, or in this case really is not :oops: My actual goal is to create some kind of file system based equivalent an entire audio CD, to be later used for creating an exact copy of said CD. Looks like what I then really need is t...

The issue concerns a plain vanilla debian stretch installation with mate desktop. Actually the same problem occurs on two different installations of stretch: 9.2 on a laptop and 9.1 on a desktop: /dev/sr0 opens and plays audio CDs as expeted in VLC. And while dd if=/dev/sr0 of=filename works if the ...

To answer the question of the thread positively myself, I can now in fact highly recommend StarTech.com 7.1 USB Sound Card - External Sound Card for Laptop with SPDIF Digital Audio - Sound Card for PC - Silver (ICUSBAUDIO7D) Turns out until this morning I been the victim to my own troubleshooting we...

Thanks for this feedback! It is very interesting, though disappointing to hear :( I am not at all picky about the finer aspects of sound, so really "hi fidelity" doesn't matter for me, but the kind of disruptions you describe of course make any sound system quite useless. I returned this c...

This is not a request for help troubleshooting, but simply for any reports of actual successful experience with particular models of USB sound cards. Unless I am horribly mistaken, I don't believe it matters at all what the computer hardware is, as long as it has a USB port that Linux recognizes. Th...

I see, however that in alsa a better search "keyword" than HDMI is SPDIF, so perhaps doing a little more research with that in mind will help :idea: On a whim, I put in /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf options snd-hda-intel model=spdif which is a valid option in my kernel, but nothing changed. ...

To switch to the HDMI output with pure ALSA see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Advanced_Linux_Sound_Architecture/Troubleshooting#HDMI . Well, that is exactly what I have done, as detailed in my original post - though I see your remark was posted 7 minutes before I edited it to show I had inde...

https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/product-specifications/high-definition-audio-specification.pdf Thanks, a fantastic design document, though approaching 10 years old, and unfortunately not too helpful for solving my specific issue! Or perhaps https://www.kernel.org/doc/ht...

I used the image tag, I'm guessing it left the word IMAGE because it wasn't an actual .png .jpg or graphic. Yes, I had that thought too, and in fact just confirmed by briefly changing the file extension on one of mine. Probably the forum software requires certain file extensions like .png, as you s...

Thanks @djk44883 for your effort trying to help. It is appreciated, even though in fact, as you suggest, it isn't really related to my system. BTW, the link to your image works, but it is not embedded in the post. I suspect there is a typo somewhere. Should just be URL . You know you can check befor...

Back to the topic at hand, I blacklisted snd_hda_codec_hdmi in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf: blacklist snd-hda-codec-hdmi This yields some changes in the pavucontrol "configuration" tab that seemed a little encouraging, but still produced no sound: Instead of four "unplugged" n...

That is so lame for a User Forums... for Debian, not to be able to directly post a screen shot. Well, this forum is a 100% volunteer operation, and I understand the forum server is a single, simple machine sitting in somebody's home. Managing an unending influx of gigabytes of file attachments is p...

See this for how to put images in posts. Apparently there is not enough admin support in the forum to handle unlimited attachments on the system, so you have to put the actual image (or whatever attachment desired) somewhere else on the web, and then put the link to it in your post. Basically, where...

in the drop down list is there an option for HDMI - as well as the Output tab. Do you mean drop down list next to the "Profile:" label in the Hardware tab and "Connector:" label in the Output tab? If so, then the answer for me is "half and half": In Output tab there is...

OK, the prompt by @djk44883, got me to once again check everything at the GUI-level (unfortunately pretty much all that my limited expertise is able to accomplish at this point), and here is what's strange when looking at mate-volume-control (whose gui window is labeled "Sound Preferences"...
