Subject	[Csnd] how to set a device to -odac in ubuntu studio?
	this is a bit off topic, but perhaps one of the linux people here can help. i want to set my emu0202 usb soundcard to the primary alsa device, so that it can be called as -odac from csound. in usual ubuntu, this is easy to do with the gnome volume control. there is a switch for selecting the primary device. now i am using ubuntu studio (12.04), and i can't find a switch like this in the pulse audio volume control (pavucontrol), or anywhere else. does anyone know how to do this? is there perhaps any simple command? thanks in advance - joachim

	Just to add, there is another possibility to go directly to pulseaudio from Csound using -+rtaudio=pulse driver. I think though, it is better to go around pulse altogether if possible. It's been a while since I worked on Linux though, so the situation with pulse may have improved, but it introduced a bit of latency last time I used it.

	yes, ubuntu studio uses pulseaudio, so the plugin is there. but how can i change the default pulse sink at runtime? thanks - joachim Am 02.08.2012 16:52, schrieb Tito Latini: > I'm not ubuntullo but if you use pulseaudio, there is the `pulse' > plugin for alsa.

	there are gui tools, but when all else fails: run pacmd (or better yet run 'rlwrap pacmd', which gives readline scrollback, history between sessions and command editing) list_sinks -> this will list all plugin instances that pulseaudio can use as outputs, one of these will be the alsa-device plugin, and will match the card you want set_default_sink -> where n is the integer preceding the card you wanted in the previously mentioned sink list I think there should be a way to pick what app goes to what sink on a per-app basis (help within pacmd displays a list of valid commands, but I am not seeing the right thing before my morning coffee).

	This method can be very useful if you want pulseaudio to use jack as it's sink (via the pulseaudio-jack-sink module "load-module pulsaudio-jack-sink"). This way apps that want lower latency can use jack directly, and apps that want the flexibility of pulseaudio and don't mind the added latency can go through pulse and still go out to the same output.

	Hi, Yes, this is what I do, I have Qjackctl do this when the jack server starts, so pulseaudio gets automatically routed through jack when it starts (I think this might not be necessary on more recent versions of pulseaudio?).
