chronocide Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Hi there, I’ve got an ASUS motherboard with onboard audio and I’m not sure where to begin with detecting and configuring the onboard audio. Searching for audio support for unraid beings up a lot of support help relating to virtualization. I’m interested in that too but first I need to get the native audio system working. Any pointers to relevant documentation or suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks for reading. here is my motherboard manual: https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1151/MAXIMUS_VIII_GENE/E10484_MAXIMUS_VIII_GENE_UM_WEB.pdf which says the following about audio: Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Unraid doesn't have native audio support. It's not meant to be a full featured desktop OS, the only thing you should be using the built in GUI mode browser for is managing Unraid. It's possible you may be able to pass it through to a VM, but that can be problematic on some boards as well. Quote Link to comment
chronocide Posted November 22, 2021 Author Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) Ah, perhaps I have simply misunderstood. How does the Audacity Docker container work? As I understand this, Docker containers don't participate in the whole pass-through hardware mechanism - is that wrong? Edited November 22, 2021 by chronocide Quote Link to comment

I'm not aware of anyone running an audacity container on Unraid, perhaps you could post in the support for that specific app? Containers don't really use pass through in the same sense as a VM, but they can utilize resources that have drivers and are mapped from the host. Quote Link to comment
