The audio > hardware (as the output of the lshw command, multimedia section) is: That shouldn't happen - it will be a driver specific issue of some kind, either a bug in the driver itself or needing to work around some issue with the hardware (emulated hardware in your case). The core ALSA code pretty much just passes these operations straight through to the drivers. > From what I have seen until now it doesn’t look like a bug from the test nor > an issue from the kernel, so I’m not really sure where to look at: I have As far as I can see it's a kernel or lower issue - userspace wrote a value that's valid for the control but read back a different value (if I had to guess I'd say the left and right channels are getting confused on either the read or the write).
