When I boot the easyos first time, I must chose the sound card manually but this is needn't in other os.

I think easyos can let my computer play music after I chose sound card, so it already can identify my sound card, but why it found 3 sound cards ?

May I provide some hardware information to help fix this bug? Please tell me how to do this,I want to make easyos perfect!

You must manually choose one then reboot... after reboot test the sound...Done.
When you exit or power-off choose "save session".

You have 3 but mine are 6... :lol: :roll: :mrgreen:

It's not a bug. More than one sound interface has been discovered, so a choice is offered. In your case, it looks like an internal audio interface, and a hdmi interface to a tv/monitor.

Choose the one you want, click the "test sound" button, if it works, then "Select card/device".

But why other os can auto select the sound interface and play sound? They play some sound after boot into desktop, No choice need.

In the case of Fossapup, if it works like the pups I used to develop, just uses the default audio output. In Fossapup, if you have something different, such as hdmi to a tv, then audio will not work and you will have to run the Multiple Sound Card Wizard.

EasyOS just takes the point of view to offer the choices up-front.

Also, Fossa is, I think, ALSA only, with some hacks for pulseaudio. Easy supports both pulseaudio and alsa -- including apps that only know alsa -- and the "test sound" button in the MSCW is important as it sets audio levels and output interface for both alsa and pulseaudio.
