Description Paul Dufresne 2024-01-04 20:03:45 UTC

This was initially posted on linux-sound mailing list:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-sound/18cd5be2bc7.e19fbd7b17331.5233193232348276602@zoho.com/T/#u

but I now believe here is a more appropriate place to discuss this.

My friend have the following card:

04:00.0 0403: 1102:0010 (rev 01)
        Subsystem: 1102:0071
        Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-
        Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- SERR- <PERR- INTx-
        Latency: 32 (4000ns min, 5000ns max), Cache Line Size: 64 bytes
        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11
        Region 0: Memory at a4604000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
        Region 2: Memory at a4600000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
        Capabilities: 
        Kernel modules: snd_hda_intel

Using snd_hda_intel.enable=N,N,Y to activate only the Sound-Blaster card I get:
snd_hda_intel: probe of 0000:00.1f.3 failed with error -2
snd_hda_intel: probe of 0000:04:00.0 failed with error -2
snd_hda_intel: 0000:04:00.0: Disabling MSI
snd_hda_intel: 0000:04:00.0: Force to non-snoop mode

as last messages while booting Fedora 39 with debug on the linux line.

For now, I am able to have sound from the motherboard using snd_hda_intel.enable=Y,Y,N.

I would be happy to try a patch, that could help to investigate what is causing the freeze.
