Has anyone had luck running DarkIce and ALSA using an Intel HDA onboard
audio? I recently purchased an Intel Desktop Board D2500CCE running
Slackware64-14.1 and want to move IceCast/DarkIce off an old system running
Slackware64-14.0. On the old system IceCast/DarkIce and the onboard ASUS/VIA
audio work flawlessly. I figured this would be a simple move however it is
not. I keep getting the error: "DarkIce: AlsaDspSource.cpp:173: can't set
channels [1]" on the new Intel system. After spending a few days searching
the Internet I am not having much success finding a resolution. I am
leaning towards the soundcard as I have reformatted the drive and tried
Slackware-14.0, Slackware-14.1 and Slackware64-14.1. I am able to pipe
audio in through the line-in and get output through the speakers. I also am
able to play a WAV file so I know the onboard sound is working. I checked
the onboard audio settings in the BIOS and only options are to Enable to
Disable the on-board sound.
I have recompiled DarkIce-1.0, DarkIce-1.2, faac, lame, libogg, libvorbis
and two-lame packages under each OS with both DarkIce-1.0 and DarkIce-1.2
presenting the same error: "DarkIce: AlsaDspSource.cpp:173: can't set
channels [1]". The darkice.cfg file is the same copy that works fine on the
old Slackware64-14.0 ASUS system.

I have also tried changing the darkice.cfg device to hw:0,2. Neither
/dev/snd nor /dev/dsp as the device work and produce different errors. Does
anyone have any pointers for something simple I may be missing?
Thank you in advance for any assistance anyone can provide.
