[regression] no audio on quickstart with 11.11

I know the MMWG released a newer version of the UCM files at https://launchpad.net/linaro-multimedia-ucm/2011.11/2011.11, would be good to check if the newer config files fixes this issue.

We find maybe headphone output was by default muted after first boot, but it's actually working fine once you unmuted it.
tgall_foo, please let us know if doing the above will make audio back to work on your quickstart board or not.

Target to 11.12 cycle for Ubuntu.

I think we can write the init value in /var/lib/alas/asound.state

We should always avoid having a default asound state from the first
boot. Ideally the default values from the driver should help already
having the mixer with the correct values.

If not, then at least UCM might help in here.

Hi,

I've test
linaro-o-ubuntu-desktop-tar-20111121-0.tar.gz + hwpack_linaro-lt-mx5_20111123-1_armel_supported.tar.gz
on releases.linaro.org

And
linaro-o-ubuntu-desktop-tar-20111212-0.tar.gz + hwpack_linaro-lt-mx5_20111212-0_armel_supported.tar.gz
on snapshots.linaro.org

speaker-test just output some noises.
And aplay also works with wav files.

Can you confirm that this is a bug or actually a false report?

According to Paul's testing result, I changed this to incomplete and moved to next month unless it's confirmed not working with latest.

yes I will confirm.

11.12 RC1 ubuntu-desktop and imx53 hwpack.

No audio out the audio jack on desktop startup. Checked sound settings, they are not muted.

speaker-test runs but emits not audio as originally reported 11.11

aplay of a wave file also has no output.

From the boot log:

    5.145879] sgtl5000 1-000a: Failed to get supply 'VDDD': -19

I would suspect the kernel side of things were not correctly setup.

Any update from the landing team side? Just to know if this can be fixed for this cycle still.

Hi:
I just checked the latest lt-3.1 branch on
(git://git.linaro.org/bsp/freescale/linux-linaro.git)
The audio can work well.

Hi Tom,

Can you help to confirm this a regression or it might be hardware issues?
You should have some old versions that works, but the new version doesn't work.

Many Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

I've checked today's ubuntu-desktop 1220 build and today's imx lt hwpack there is indeed no sound. As I don't keep old copies of hardware packs and desktops around it's hard to back up.

Let's please focus with the current hwpack for the 11.12 release and the new ubuntu-desktop for 11.12. Wei please get involved as this version includes the new UCM support of yours that does include support for this board.

Richard,

What version of hwpack and rootfs are you using? What are you using for sound output ? Sound via HDMI or via the audio jack which is located right next to the power input?

Thanks!
Tom

Hi Tom:
I just use "aplay" cmd to play one wav file to verify the sgtl5000
audio playback function.
The sw enviroment is NFS+Latest lt-3.1 branch codes.

Best Regard
Richard.

In 11.12 monthly release, the default audio device is hdmi audio in pulse configuration, which cause there is no audio when plug to sgtl5000.

Because no ucm and pulseaudio profile configs for i.mx53 HDMI, the hdmi audio device is considered as a stereo analog output, and be assigned a high priority. It's a fault.
I would rather add hdmi card ucm configuration for i.mx53qs instead of pa profile configs. But another problem is can hdmi work on mx53?

@Feng Wei, yes, HDMI video is working on some of the compatible display, including Video and Audio output, so currently HDMI video output is set by default.

@Haitao

The last direction I had from the landing team was that for imx53 the default is VGA video NOT HDMI, HDMI was considered to be secondary video source. When I tested it in 11.12 HDMI video did not work.

We need 2 things:

1) Is HDMI video now supposed to be considered the primary video source for imx53 QS.

2) is the LT saying that audio output via the audio jack is not supported?

3) If video out is via VGA (and HDMI is NOT connected) shouldn't audio out via the audio jack work?

Ideally HDMI would be considered as the primary video source, but QS
is a quite special case, as HDMI only works with the extension board
(and we can't assume everybody has it).

On the video output side, we can just have the following use case:
1) No extension board -> VGA primary
2) With extension board -> HDMI primary

I believe it's supported, or at least should be. Unfortunately can't
test it on my board as the jack is broken (hw).

Can we automatically detect this and enable jack in case the HDMI
(extension board) is not connected?

> supported?
It's supported actually, when we change the default sink by "pacmd set-default-sink 1", it works, but not very stable. I run speaker-test for several times, sometimes an
"Write error: -5,Input/output error
xrun_recovery failed: -5,Input/output error" occurred.

> Can we automatically detect this and enable jack in case the HDMI

I think so, but it need jack detection mechanism in pulseaudio, it's really new feature and is upgrading. I can enable the priority property in ucm configs, so that we can set the default sink staticly before jack detection stuffs work.

BTW, I also found a bug when we restart the board, not "shutdown/powerup", but by push down restart button on the board. There's an error as Tom filled at #11. But when shutdown and power up, the issue is gone.

Using the Jan 16th hwpack and Jan 16th linaro-ubuntu-desktop I tried two variations with sound.

1) vga video and audio over the jack. No HDMI daughter board was connected. aplay works. No adjustments necessary. The ubuntu startup sound did not play. I think we can ignore that for the time being.

2) connecting the hdmi daughter board. No hdmi video or audio was emitted.

I would ike to suggest since the VGA + audio jack route works. This bug should be closed. A separate bug should be opened for the hdmi audio and video issue.

Does the jack also work when the hdmi board/monitor is connected?

Otherwise I also agree we should have another bug for hdmi-only.

I'm going to close out this bug. Thank you to everyone for their efforts.

aplay and speaker-test are both working from the command line. (no hdmi daughter board connected)

I think there are still some pulseaudio / alsa issues yet but those are not board specific.

This is noted with the 12.01 RC.

FSL LT, feel free to re-open if you still see an issue. Thanks.
