How do i load it ?

lsmod | grep saa7134

me@me-desktop:~$ sudo modprobe saa7134_alsa
[sudo] password for me:
me@me-desktop:~$ sox -c 2 -s -2 -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -2 -r 32000 /dev/dsp
sox formats: can’t open input file `/dev/dsp1′: No such file or directory
me@me-desktop:~$

sudo modprobe saa7134_alsa

Now i get following error

me@me-desktop:~$ sox -c 2 -s -2 -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -2 -r 32000 /dev/dsp
sox formats: can’t open input file `/dev/dsp1′: No such file or directory
me@me-desktop:~$

Any idea how to fix the error ?

sudo apt-get install libsox-fmt-oss

me@me-desktop:~$ sox -c 2 -s -2 -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -2 -r 32000 /dev/dsp
sox formats: no handler for given file type `ossdsp’
me@me-desktop:~$

with
sox -c 2 -s -2 -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -2 -r 32000 /dev/dsp

Hope it helps.

me@my-desktop:~$ sox -c 2 -s -w -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp -w -r 32000 /dev/dsp

Usage summary: [gopts] [[fopts] infile]… [fopts] outfile [effect [effopts]]…

SPECIAL FILENAMES (infile, outfile):
- Pipe/redirect input/output (stdin/stdout); use with -t
-d, –default-device Use the default audio device (where available)
-n, –null Use the `null’ file handler; e.g. with synth effect
-p, –sox-pipe Alias for `-t sox -’

SPECIAL FILENAMES (infile only):
“|program [options] …” Pipe input from external program (where supported)
http://server/file Use the given URL as input file (where supported)

GLOBAL OPTIONS (gopts) (can be specified at any point before the first effect):
–buffer BYTES Set the size of all processing buffers (default 8192)
–combine concatenate Concatenate multiple input files (default for sox, rec)
–combine sequence Sequence multiple input files (default for play)
–effects-file FILENAME File containing effects and options
-h, –help Display version number and usage information
–help-effect NAME Show usage of effect NAME, or NAME=all for all
–help-format NAME Show info on format NAME, or NAME=all for all
–input-buffer BYTES Override the input buffer size (default: as –buffer)
–interactive Prompt to overwrite output file
-m, –combine mix Mix multiple input files (instead of concatenating)
-M, –combine merge Merge multiple input files (instead of concatenating)
–plot gnuplot|octave Generate script to plot response of filter effect
-q, –no-show-progress Run in quiet mode; opposite of -S
–replay-gain track|album|off Default: off (sox, rec), track (play)
-R Use default random numbers (same on each run of SoX)
-S, –show-progress Display progress while processing audio data
–version Display version number of SoX and exit
-V[LEVEL] Increment or set verbosity level (default 2); levels:
1: failure messages
2: warnings
3: details of processing
4-6: increasing levels of debug messages
FORMAT OPTIONS (fopts):
Input file format options need only be supplied for files that are headerless.
Output files will have the same format as the input file where possible and not
overriden by any of various means including providing output format options.

-v|–volume FACTOR Input file volume adjustment factor (real number)
-t|–type FILETYPE File type of audio
-s/-u/-f/-U/-A/-i/-a/-g Encoding type=signed-integer/unsigned-integer/floating-
point/mu-law/a-law/ima-adpcm/ms-adpcm/gsm-full-rate
-e|–encoding ENCODING Set encoding (ENCODING in above list)
-b|–bits BITS Encoded sample size in bits
-1/-2/-3/-4/-8 Encoded sample size in bytes
-N|–reverse-nibbles Encoded nibble-order
-X|–reverse-bits Encoded bit-order
–endian little|big|swap Encoded byte-order; swap means opposite to default
-L/-B/-x Short options for the above
-c|–channels CHANNELS Number of channels of audio data; e.g. 2 = stereo
-r|–rate RATE Sample rate of audio
-C|–compression FACTOR Compression factor for output format
–add-comment TEXT Append output file comment
–comment TEXT Specify comment text for the output file
–comment-file FILENAME File containing comment text for the output file
