Sound issue in MAME
nitrogen_widget:
what OS are you using?
you shouldn't need a usb sound card.
Retropie just works without any config except video & sound outputs.
heck raspbian just works also.

All you did was change options snd-usb-audio index=-2 to 0 correct?
Are you using Retropie or PiPlay?
I have used both without any issues. I just completed 2 more RPi setups (mini-cabs) using RPi version 2 boards with these USB sound cards and both Mame4all and Advmame work fine. I have been unable to get NEOGEO games to work at all on either Mame4all or Advmame. One of the ones I just built went to a buddy of mine who wanted only Mame emulation and wanted the Metal Slug series, but I was unable to get any of them to work. Here is a YT vid of the one I built for my friend: .

Just a thought, I found this, but not sure if it is what you are dealing with:

I guess I don't understand why you need a usb sound card at all.
Aceisback:
The RPi was not designed for good sound quality as it is PWM sound by what I have read. The external audio devices sound better and often reduce system noise the RPi generates. Maybe personal preference to some, but I use the external usb audio on all my setups now. I started using them after my first setup because I just did not like some of the noise and poor quality of sound from some games, and they were cheap enough to try. There are more expensive audio boards that piggy back on the RPi also, but I don't need to spend that much money for better sound.
