 |
|
Hello,
I changed my audio system on my PC with Gentoo installed.
I have a Fostex HP-A4 USB sound card but I can't find a way to make the kernel recognize it.
Can someone tell me if it's possible to use this device and how to make it work.
He is the output of lsusb -v

can't get device qualifier: Resource temporarily unavailable
can't get debug descriptor: Resource temporarily unavailable
cannot read device status, Resource temporarily unavailable (11) |
I have a USB headset which works fine, also the motherboard sound card works fine.
Many thanks. |

It's not supported on my current kernel 4.9.5.
You can check by yourself:
$ grep -Ril 1019 /usr/src/linux/drivers/* |

I just wanted to report I found a workaround.
This DAC has a fiber (TOSLink) input port, so I connected it to the motherboard integrated Fiber out. Then I did fight a bit with alsa to make this digital output the default one so that not only regular software can use it, but also firefox.
This makes the DAC be used only at 44Khz instead of adapting to the source, but I was able to force the correct setting in winamp clone to use it properly upto 192Khz dynamically when playing flacs with this software.
Let's hope one soon day it's supported natively because I find the sound better when on Windows with an ASIO driver or when I pass DSD64 files directly to the DAC using Fostex proprietary player. Probably the TOSLink connection has a reduced resolution.
Best regards

HI
I am facing issue of dac suddenly not being detected by PC
I have changed my laptops, PCs, USB Cables.
Green light with a blinking red light at 44.1k only
Device not showing in Sound devices
Installed and uninstalled driver multiple times
Please suggest a way forward. I don't want a $400 DAC to go brick. If you can guide to factory reset it or share new firmware files |
