Need ALSA things to try

OK.  Somehow, I don't know how, this Debian will do Jack sound through
ALSA very nicely indeed, but will not do anything else no matter whether
Jack is turned on or off.  Jack is sending audio to hw:HD2, and here is
my current /etc/asound.conf, which used to work great, although non-Jack
apps could not coexist with Jack:

pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card HD2
}
ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card HD2
}

Any suggestions on what to try next?  I have already deleted my
asound.state, without change in results.

J.E.B.

Have you tried reverting to a vanilla version?

pcm.card0 {
     type hw
     card 0
}
ctl.card0 {
     type hw
     card 0
}

You can put this in .asoundrc : it will override /etc/asound.conf
You will need to do a restart to effect the changes.

sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
( or su -c "/etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart" )


best wishes, G.
