Audio Issues was created by rimshot

Hello All,
So I have put a new little box together specifically for LinuxCNC which is working out quite well. However, the only audio I've been able to get out of this debian wheezy is from the system/mobo speaker. I have attached a USB audio adapter. linux sees it. I select it. Nothing happens. I had found somewhere that an alsa.conf file needs poked at. so I did. Now even the mobo speaker doesn't work. Obviously I'm not huge into linux though I've given mint a fair shake many times over the years... still... just don't get it.

Anyways. I really need to run this linuxcnc, so I guess I'm stuck using debian wheezy, but I need the audio. neeeed the audio. please help.

Since this machine is dual boot with win10 I boot into windows and everything works. speakers and all audio devices. Linux... not so much.

Disable all Audio on a CNC
its a Realtime system
get a 5USD Radio DVD/Usb station to get your music played

its a CNC not a Rockconcert

lol. that's great. honestly though, I really don't listen to much music of any type. I want the audio for occasional videos while learning this machine and program. I have to keep shutting down and booting into win10 to figure something out then reboot back into debian. it's nuts.

sure would like to get the audio working.

Getting your audio working is probably more of a generic Linux problem between your hardware and the kernel version you are running. Googling the problem pertaining to your specific hardware will probably yield the best solution.

I know that I have struggled with setting up audio setting up some other Linux systems (Mythtv) in the past and a bit of digging usually turned up a solution. I have never tried to get audio working on one of my Linuxcnc machines. Can't hear it in the noisy shop environment where you must (or at least should) wear hearing protection anyway.

Hey Todd,
Well thanks for responding anyway. Yeah I've been googling for the past 4 days or so... no luck. Doesn't help that I'm just eking by inside of linux in the first place. Guess I'll just keep at it till I figure it out or just don't need it anymore.

I did on the other hand just make my very first very successful cut. So that's good. I still have quite a ways to go though.

Thanks again,
John
