Hi, The vu-meters in alsamixer are not changing, because alsamixer does not refresh regularly their values. They reflect status of ice1724 vu-meters at the moment of alsamixer start. I have already raised the issue and I got a fair answer - alsamixer is a console mixer and should thus consume as little network bandwidth as possible. Since the meaning of these read-only controls is clear only upon detailed study of the driver and Envy24 datasheet plus I encounter a lot of questins/complaints about them, I suggest to change their type from MIXER to PCM. They would still be readily accessible from amixer or API. Here is my little vu-meter script I use for testing ice1724 cards: while true; do amixer cget name="Multi Track Peak" | grep ": values"; sleep 0.5; done Thanks for considering this minor change which would simplify life of a lot of users/admins. Regards, Pavel Hofman.
