What I have been trying to do is record some of my old LPs so I can burn them to CD. After much struggling (and googling) with ALSA on my 2.6.6 kernel including getting the line-in to operate as a line-in, not a surround out (go to kmix and check on 'advanced' click to disable 'line-in as surround')., I still have a problem.

Audacity records with a sample rate of 48k, not the CD standard of 44.1k so when it plays back, it plays back more slowly. (The settings in Audacity make no difference). I cannot find a way to set the sound card to sample at 44.1k, however, I do note that dmesg has the following line:-

via82xx: Assuming DXS channels with 48k fixed sample rate.
Please try dxs_support=1 or dxs_support=4 option

Anyone any idea how I can tell it not to assume 48k!!!!

In the meantime I'll read everything I can on ALSA on the forum.

Many thanks! Stu.....
