you need to ask aksa devel how to modify USB-Audio.conf so that suuround50 use device 1 instead of device 0 http://git.alsa-project.org/?p=alsa-lib.git;a=blob;f=src/conf/cards/USB-Audio.conf;hb=HEAD If a device requires non-standard definitions for front, surround40, # surround51, surround71 or iec958, they can be defined here. -- GitLab Migration Automatic Message -- This bug has been migrated to freedesktop.org's GitLab instance and has been closed from further activity.

Created attachment 119719 [details] Pulseaudio verbose log Hi, I'm using a gaming USB DAC/Soundcard in Linux, the device is called "Astro Mixamp Pro TR". It has a PC mode where it works as a soundcard, providing multiple audio devices under a single system device. In my system it's assigned the card id 2 and the name "Pro". Device 0 supports 2.0 Stereo, device 1 supports 5.1 surround. There is no official Linux support for this card, however it works fine in Alsa, so it should be able to work with PulseAudio. Both devices work fine in Alsa: $ aplay -l [...] card 2: Pro [Astro MixAmp Pro], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 2: Pro [Astro MixAmp Pro], device 1: USB Audio [USB Audio #1] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 $ pasuspender -- speaker-test -D plughw:Pro,0 -c2 $ speaker-test -D plughw:Pro,1 -c6 You can already see that for device 0 I need to use pasuspender because it is claimed by pulseaudio. Device 1 however is not in use and can be accessed directly by alsa. My problem now is that all functionality of device 1 is not recognized in pulseaudio, I can only choose stereo profiles in pavucontrol. From the pulseaudio log it seems that device 1 is never really configured, although I'm not sure what that would even look like. I have attached the very verbose pulseaudio log when connecting the device. From the pulseaudio -vvvvv logfile, though this all seems to be trying to configure only card 2 device 0: [...] D: [pulseaudio] alsa-mixer.c: Looking at profile output:analog-surround-51 D: [pulseaudio] alsa-mixer.c: Checking for playback on Analog Surround 5.1 (analog-surround-51) D: [pulseaudio] alsa-util.c: Trying surround51:2 with SND_PCM_NO_AUTO_FORMAT ...

But trying to debug this further has not lead anywhere, Alsa just doesn't give me enough information. If you have any tips on that I'd be happy, too. If you need more information just ask, and I'm happy for any help with this. Been spending a couple of hours on this problem already and I'm not getting further without some experts. System is Gentoo Linux 64-bit, Pulseaudio version is 7.1.
