I tried copying the softvol from my old .asoundrc which used usb out but can't get it to work. Well I figured it out: pcm.SoftVol { type softvol slave.pcm "spdif" control { name "SoftVol" card 0 } } pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "SoftVol" } Now it would be nice if I could actually make a separate softvol which I could call with alsamixer via F6 or cli, so I'll keep looking for that one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
