You *can* workaround it, though

/* Skip the CS4281 */

ADDRESS COMMAND 'waitforport 'MIXER

ADDRESS MIXER

QUERYCARDS        
Check how many cards are "installed"
IF RC 0 THEN        ; If theres more than one we want the second
    setcard 1    
0first card1second card 2third...
ENDIF

EXIT 
0


You need to put it in WBStartup, make a script out of it and executeable

The IF loop is not needed as you know that you want the second card installed, still, kind of an insurance

To test if it will work, first open up Mixer GUI and run the script...if your card (at the right side - beside the cycle gadget) is changed it should work from boot time aswell

of course, some may run away screaming due to the mistakes i made (even in such a short script)

Doing this from memory, I'm currently not near my A1.

- First make sure the script has an icon;
- open its information (RA+I on the WB);
- make it a script by checking the corresponding box;
- go to the other tab;
- choose "ARexx" from the droplist;
- click save

Now having Mixer open, double click the script you must see your card changing to the one you put in the script.

OUCH!!!

Mixing DOS and AREXX scripts myself again :-/
Comments are sandwiched between /* */ pairs

/* Skip the CS4281 */

FAILAT 21

ADDRESS COMMAND 
'waitforport 'MIXER

ADDRESS MIXER

QUERYCARDS            
/* Check how many cards are "installed" */
IF RC 0 THEN DO        /* If theres more than one we want the second */
    
ADDRESS COMMAND "Wait 1"
    
setcard 1        /* 0= first card, 1= second card 2= third... */

PCMDOWN            /* PCM Volume down one step */
    
ADDRESS COMMAND "Wait 1"
    
PCMUP            /* ...and up again */
END

EXIT 0


Open up Mixer before you start the script, you can watch your card being set to the second available, then the PCM volume going down one step and up again, if that works you can delete line 11 and lines 13 to 16 again and set the script up in WBStartup.

Of course this is and will stay only a workaround, it would be by far better if someone can introduce a tooltype for skipping your inbuilt sound chip.
There is one already, stating from the docs
Quote:

- You can use the CLI argument or tooltype 'NO_VIA' to suppress detection of the
VIA686B onboard sound in case you don't have the onboard sound chip on your
AmigaOne.


So...this ones for AlexC or Daniel or whoever wants to take a shot on it
It *should* be fairly easy as there is a similar tooltype already skipping VIA
How about one "NO_CS4" for all the Sam users?

Hmm

Try the following:

Open Mixer GUI
Open shell
type in the following:

TS
then
rx path to script/script

now every command of the script will be echoed, proceed with pressing RETURN upto where it sends you back to the shell prompt

now type

TE

and post the result from TS to TE

QUERYCARDS does not find a second card installed

Open up Mixer GUI and click once on the cycle gadget (right side above SAVE).
If that doesn't change anything than the only card installed is the card displayed on the right side

the cs4281 is the bult in sound on my Samflex...I only have one pci sound card in my Sam and one Catweasel card...my problem is mixer defaults to cs4281 at start up each time & i want my Revo5.1 to be the default instead of me always having to change it

you didn't understand me

if mixer defaults to the cs, then you ought to have TWO cards installed.
Mixers AREXX command QUERYCARDS does but only find ONE, so where is the second card?

Please do as i suggested above and tell me if the cycle gadget in Mixer works and actually cycles to your Revo on a single click.

If not your Revo might not be properly installed and we must go from there

yes the Revo5.1 card has always shown up in Mixer along with cs4281. My Revo5.1 sound card works great in every single application.

It's hard to track down something i'm not able to test :-/

/* Skip the CS4281 */

OPTIONS FAILAT 21

ADDRESS COMMAND 
'waitforport 'MIXER

ADDRESS MIXER

ADDRESS COMMAND 
"Wait 1"
setcard 1        /* 0= first card, 1= second card 2= third... */
ADDRESS COMMAND "Wait 1"
PCMDOWN            /* PCM Volume down one step */
ADDRESS COMMAND "Wait 1"
PCMUP            /* ...and up again */

EXIT 0


Try this on Workbench with open Mixer GUI (all the checks taken out)

If QUERYCARDS is right you should get a console window telling you
Quote:

setcard 1 is out of range

but it should still change PCM Volume on the active card (CS probably) then.
If not than something in your driver installation of the Revo is wrong, because the script output clearly states there is NO second card installed. At least it can't find one, but if you can cycle through them, then the above should work aswell.

Utterly strange
While Querycards doesn't seem to find one you obviously have a second one installed...hrmm

That would be something for the devs to look at aswell

Hmm, maybe the waitforport line doesn't catch...
Make sure you have waitforport in C: somewhere

ok, lets tidy the script up
/* Set Mixer to use Revo5 (CS4281 being the first card) */

OPTIONS FAILAT 21

ADDRESS COMMAND WAITFORPORT Mixer 
/* Wait for Mixer to be up and running */
ADDRESS MIXER

setcard 1            
/* Set Revo5 to the default */

EXIT 0


Also make sure that your script has an icon and is set to EXECUTEABLE and SCRIPT.
The default tool must be C:RX and "Start from" must be AREXX.

Finally add these tooltypes:
STARTPRI=126
DONOTWAIT
