There is no "Connector: Analog Line-In" on the INPUT tab of Sound Preferences -- Why NOT?

  • 772

I connected an analog tape deck to my Soundblaster Audigy Analog Line-In input. I have a 2 to 1 cable connecting the Tape-OUT to the Audigy-LINE-IN.

I can't hear any sound when the Tape Deck plays. I have no problem when on Windows.

How do I get the tape deck to play on Ubuntu?

  1. Recommend installing alsamixer it will grab those settings from your PCM card and you can modify the settings as you wish.

    Installing

    Install with Command Line

    Adding the ppa

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa
sudo apt-get update

    Install the linux-alsa-driver-modules package

    sudo apt-get install linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r)

    Note: After installing the linux-alsa-driver-modules package, your system needs to be rebooted.
