The playback- and capture-specific control names have a style "XXX (Payback|Catpure) (Switch|Volume)", such as "Master Playback Switch" or "Mic Capture Volume". The other suffices are not parsed as the valid playback/capture modifies, so "Master Playback Balance" is handled as a global control element without directional information. It's a recent feature (or bug) of alsa-lib that global mixer elements are handled as both playback and capture elements in the mixer abstraction layer. (In the earlier version, it appeared only in playback.) I don't like this new feature, too, honestly. Anyway, in your case, rename it like "Master Balance Playback Switch" or so. Then it should be handled as "Master Balance" for playback. Takashi ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
