Hi, I have successfully set up alsa for my custom hardware and am using sofvol plugin to do volume control as my hardware does not support it. The problem I am having is that the softvol control does not appear to amixer until I have first used the softvol plugin with aplay. Is there a simple way of 'loading' the softvol plugin at startup so that the control gets created immediately? Thanks, Will. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Will Wagner will_wagner@xxxxxxxxxxxx Senior Project Engineer Office Tel: +44 (0)20 7371 2032 Carallon Ltd, Studio G20, Shepherds Building, Rockley Rd, London W14 0DA ------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
