alsa + aureal качество звука :(

Та е хрень. Сделал даже то про что в в aureal.faq(?) написано - форсировал частоту на 48000. Не помогло. Съехал на AC97... А жаль, очень жаль.

MX300 users (and possibly others which should be noted here): You will probably need to set the "External Amplifier Power Down" to On. When this is Off/muted the sound will be much quieter than one would expect -- roughly 1/3 to 1/2 of that of the Windows driver. It can be found near the end of the list in alsamixer. Hit m to un-mute the External channel.
