Pulseaudio defaults not working for USB DAC, but fine in Windows, Ubuntu, MacOS
by dimm0k from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4ZD8C)
Currently on my Slackware64 14.2 system I cannot get my USB DAC working at all unless I set the sample rate to 48000Hz in daemon.conf using 'default-sample-rate = 48000'. the output of iecset on my system shows
control "IEC958 Playback Default" (index -1) not found
however if I run this on Ubuntu Live I actually output except the rate is 44100 Hz. I've tried looking on the Ubuntu Live system and do not see anything changed with daemon.conf and the sample rate still seems to be set to 44100Hz. any idea what I might be missing so that the system matches that of Ubuntu's configuration?
