ASUS Xonar AE Sound Card No Output











up vote

I have a custom-built PC that dual boots Linux/Ubuntu and Winblows 10. I purchased the ASUS Xonar AE sound card when I was only running Windows and everything worked as designed. Now that I'm primarily running Ubuntu 18.04, I get zero output from the Xonar card.



I installed alsa-utils and when I go into AlsaMixer and select the card, the only volumes I can control from inside Alsa is for the Input Gain. Nothing for PCM or any other volume controls. They are all at "00".



Is there a driver or something I can use to get this card working? Everything I'm reading is saying I'm better off with a USB sound card. I figure it's time to ask the pros! Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated!



Cheers!

  • As far as I can see, that card has a USB audio chip connected to a USB controller. Please show the output of lsusb -v and amixer --card X for this device.
