No sound with Line in

I just installed Zorin OS 6 on my iMac (dual boot). Works fine except for the Line in. When I boot into my iMac I have no problems recording shows from the radio that is connected to my iMac via the sound in/out ports on the back of my iMac. When I boot into Zorin, I don't see any activity from the Line in levels. What should I do? Do I have to tweak the Line in settings for this to work? Let me know what info you require. Thanks!!!

Hi. Try this.
Install pulse audio volume control from the software center.
Open it and go to the "input" tab.
Click on an icon with a "lock" in order to "release" the left and right channel bars from moving together.
Put one of the bars i.e. the left one to zero and the other bar, i.e. the right one, to 100%.
See if the mic works.

If not, try also this.
Open terminal and write

Code:

gstreamer-properties

A window will open. The first tab is called audio. In the lower half of this bar you will see some options regarding the input. Try all of them one by one to see if you get any result.

Thanks I will try that. Just a note that the built in mic on the iMac works great. The problem is with sound coming from the radio.

I will post back with the results. Thanks again!!!!!

Here is a screenshot of my results. The mic works great but nothing from the Line in seems to work.

How does this work? gstreamer-properties

I have the window open and have selected the plugins listed as well as the Devices from the drop down list and then selected test. What am I supposed to see?

Very sorry I thought that your mic had the problem.

Try this,
Open up a terminal and enter the command

Code:

alsamixer

Navigate to the "line" bar(s) with the cursor keys and press "m" to toggle mute. If it’s muted the box above it will say "MM", if it’s not it’ll say "00". You can change the volume of each individual bar with the arrow keys. When finished, press ESC to save your changes.

Probably you should do that for all the bars. All of them should say "00".


If that doesn't work open terminal and try this command:

Code:

pactl load-module module-loopback

(it may need "sudo" in front of it or root privileges)

If the above command works, to make ti permanent and add it on each startup, open terminal and write the following:

Code:

sudo sh -c ' echo "load-module module-loopback" >>  /etc/pulse/default.pa '

(we actually add that line into the file /etc/pulse/default.pa)


Then, if you want and just to make sure, open terminal and write:
sudo gedit /etc/pulse/default.pa
The default.pa file will open.
Scroll down to the bottom of it and see if actually the line "load-module module-loopback" has been added.
If yes, check that it has not been added twice! (otherwise you would have echo problems etc.).
If it is only added once, all is ok. If it is added twice, delete one of the two lines, save and exit.

Hi,

try Pulse Audio in conjunction with the normal sound manager:

Have you fully updated your system:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2247

Regards Wolfman

I have Zorin 6 RC installed. I am going to install the latest iso I just downloaded and then follow the suggestions from this thread and post back.

Hi,

after installing Z6 Core Final, please take the time to read this guide:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2054

Regards Wolfman

I will Wolfman. Thanks!!

Just as a point of interest, I am back in my Mac using OS X Snow Leopard. This is what the Sound input window looks like. You can see that the bar is active.

Hi,

very similar as to how it should look with Linux, try the Pulse Audio link and see if it doesn't work after you install Z6 Final Core.

Regards Wolfman

Thanks Wolfman. I also want to mention that while in Zorin I am using the Gnome 2 options with no effects.

I am downloading the latest Zorin 6 at the moment. I had some stuff I had to do on the Mac side (recording my radio show). If I ever get thie Linux side working with this capability, I won't have to use the Mac side anymore. I'm really looking forward to resolving this issue. I will post back as soon as I reinstall Zorin and follow Wolfman's advice. Fingers crossed

I just installed Zorin 6 64bit on my iMac using Gnome (no effects) as my preferred Zorin choice. This way it is as simple as I can get which I like.

Wolfman,

I read your guide as you requested. I am going to install the Pulse Volume Control. Can I install the other Pulse items in the Software Center as well?

I still don't have the line in working properly.

Have you tried my suggestions???

Yes you can!!.

Here are my terminal results:


home@zorin632bit:~$ pactl load-module module-loopback

home@zorin632bit:~$ sudo pactl load-module module-loopback
[sudo] password for home:

I still don't see any audio activity when I click on the Line In tab. Any other things I should try? Do you need driver info, sound card info etc...? This seems like such a simple think to resolve but it looks like it isn't. At least it's a great learning experience.

Hi,

once you install Pulse Audio manager, open it and look at input and output setings very carefully!!.

Did you install all the packages according to the pulse audio guide?.

Regards Wolfman

Hi Wolfman,

Did you mean for me to look at the Pulse Audio Volume Control? The screenshots you posted don't look like my Pulse Audio Manager Window.

Do you need info on the sound card I am using in the iMac? As I said previously, the internal mic works great.

Another thing I want to mention is that if I install linux on my iMac using Virtualbox while in my Mac OS, the line in works fine when using my Linux distro in Virtualbox.

I just came up with an idea. If we are having problems getting the line in function to work, why not look at this from the Mac side of things. What is it on the Mac side that allows line in to work? Is it a preference, some kind of driver? I was thinking that if I can snoop around on the Mac side for something that might help, and then post it to this thread, then someone might come up with the answer as to why Line In doesn't work.

Any thoughts as to what I should do on the Mac side to help solve this issue?

I just saw this from the Apple support page. Is there anything here that might help us out?

Analog audio line input is accepted through a 3.5mm mini phone jack. The sound input jack accepts line-level stereo signals up to 24-bit stereo 44.1-192kHz sampling rate. It also accepts a stereo miniplug-to-RCA cable adapter for connecting stereo equipment to the computer.

Optical audio input is SPDIF format and uses a standard Toslink cable with a Toslink mini-plug adapter, accepting up to 24-bit stereo and 44.1-96kHz sampling rate.

I think I am getting closer to a possible solution. Any thoughts on what is on this link?

http://code.google.com/p/voodoohda/

Hi,

the link sounds interesting but can you please explain whether or not you installed the libsox package and what switches you are using for your hardware, I have pointed out that you should use Pulse Audio in conjunction with the normal sound manager.

The pics I posted are indeed different to yours, are you using VM within MAC or what??, do you have onboard sound and is the card also loading??, you can check this in your BIOS settings if you have another soundcard!!.

Tell us what you want to connect to what; and what cables are you using and where are they connected. You said the MIC is okay so what are you trying to run through the "Line-In".

There is a new kernel available; have you done your updates? which may help solve the problem!!.

Does your card have HDMI and if it does, are you indeed switching to the HDMI if you are not using the analog?.

My output for analog:

My output for HDMI:

The pics above are from the normal sound manager!!.

My configuration from the Pulse Audio Manager:

Regards Wolfman

Can you please explain whether or not you installed the libsox package and what switches you are using for your hardware,

How can I tell if the libsox package is installed? Can I go into the terminal to find out?

The pics I posted are indeed different to yours, are you using VM within MAC or what??, do you have onboard sound and is the card also loading??, you can check this in your BIOS settings if you have another soundcard!!.

I am using Zorin6 on a seperate partition on my iMac. When I start up my Mac, I have a refit window that allows me to choose to boot from my iMac with the Mac OS or from my iMac with Zorin6. I am only using the sound card that comes with the iMac. How can I post info on what sound card is in this iMac?

Tell us what you want to connect to what; and what cables are you using and where are they connected. You said the MIC is okay so what are you trying to run through the "Line-In".

I have an Aiwa 845 radio from around 1980. It has line in/out ports. These ports are connected to my iMac through the in/out ports on the back of the iMac with RCA cables. Like I said before, works great when I boot into the Mac OS X on my iMac.

There is a new kernel available; have you done your updates? which may help solve the problem!!.

As far as I know, all my updates have been done.

My kernel: 3.2.0-29-generic-pae (#46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 27 17:25:43 UTC 2012)

Does your card have HDMI and if it does, are you indeed switching to the HDMI if you are not using the analog?.

I don't know if my sound card has HDMI. How can I tell?

Hi,

its me again, okay; you don't have a HDMI card otherwise it would show up in the hardware list in the sound manager.

To check the "sox" packages open Synaptic and type "sox" in the search box, make sure you have the following installed:

sox

libsox-fmt-all

if they are not listed as being installed, mark the both for installation and install them, before you do, click on "reload" and then "mark all updates" and then on "apply" just in case there is anything missing!!.

Do you have the "Medibuntu" repo installed?:

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1852

install the non-free-codecs too.

Are you trying to use the radio MIC or just the radio through the output connection, the MIC is "input" and sound reproduction (music or sound in general) is "output".

Something to read:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting

Let me know how you get on.

Regards Wolfman

Getting slow there Swarf, you were 60 seconds later than me so you couldn't have seen it anyway!!.

Regards wolfman

Hi Wolfman,

I will post back with the info you requested. In the meantime I saw this on a web site. Make sense?

sudo urpmi kernel-tmb-desktop-latest

, then once you boot into with GRUB there will be a new Kernel Entry,

gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf

Then put this in the text editor:

options snd-hda-intel model=auto

Or

options snd-hda-intel model=mbp5

Or

options snd-hda-intel model=mbp55

or

options snd-hda-intel model=imac27

Hi,

the newest kernel is: 3.2.0.30

Hold off on adjusting any files for the mo!!, update to the newest kernel first then check your sound settings again!.

Regards Wolfman

I am running the radio through the input/output cables attached to my iMac.

For some reason I can't update my kernel to the latest version you mentioned. When I go into Update manager and select check, it seems that everything is updated.

Hi,

in your software sources list, you need to put a tick in the top box (Canonical) too!!, reload, mark all updates and apply.

Regards Wolfman

Here is the info I was able to retreive based on Wolfman's suggested link.

Is my audio card compatible with Linux?

Hi,

yes your card is compatible, did you re-run the updates as per my previous post?.

Regards Wolfman

Here are my terminal results:


home@zorin632bit:~$ pactl load-module module-loopback

home@zorin632bit:~$ sudo pactl load-module module-loopback
[sudo] password for home:

home@zorin632bit:~$ sudo sh -c ' echo "load-module module-loopback" >> /etc/pulse/default.pa '
home@zorin632bit:~$

I still don't see any audio activity when I click on the Line In tab. Any other things I should try? Do you need driver info, sound card info etc...? This seems like such a simple think to resolve but it looks like it isn't. At least it's a great learning experience.

I just took a closer look at this pic, on the bottom left pic; your input is muted, you need to move the slider to the right!!. Where it states "Input Volume".

Oops! I will check that again. I made sure that the top Canonical item is checked. After doing sibi ran sudo apt-get update as well as sudo apt-get upgrade. After doing so I restarted my iMac and noticed that the.29 kernel was displayed and not the .30 you mentioned.

Hi,

check that slider and with regard to updating; I have a tick in all the boxes which may explain why you don't have the latest kernel if you don't have all the boxes ticked!!.

Regards Wolfman

Hi,

is this solved yet??.

Regards Wolfman

No. Still no luck with my iMac but I have another related question. I have a Dell Dimension 3000 (circa 2001), that I use to record my radio shows. No problems recording with Puppy Linux or even Zorin 5 or 6. I just installed Zorin 6.1 lite because I found the regular Zorin was maybe too processor intensive for my Dell? With Zorin Lite 6.1, I can set up my Crontab properly and it works but it is not recording from the raqdio. I have the Line volume set in the Alsamixer and still no luck.

What do I need to do? Should I maybe reinstall Zorin 6 Core or something else? Options? Puppy works fine but I wanted another OS just in case I had problems with Puppy. I love the Gnome 2 interface which is why I like Zorin Core. My processor on the Dell is a Celeron 2.66ghz with 2GB of RAM.

Hi,

the question still remains as to whether or not you have the sliders all set correctly, if you feel that Zorin 6 won't work for you, try ubuntu 12.04 and install fallback mode which will give you the G2 interface in a bog standard Ubuntu!!.

This might give you some help:
