Why is the volume "enumerated"?
Its not linear. Its defined in dB and has some "holes" in it.When I change it to SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_TYPE_INTEGER I see the slider in the [Capture] screen, and also something at its bottom, but I can't switch anything:
│▒▒│ │▒▒│ └──┘ ------ 7<Line Byp>
This I see in the [Playback] screen now with identical code but "PCM Playback Switch" and "PCM Playback Volume" as control names.
│ │ ├──┤ │MM│ └──┘ 0<>0 PCM
If I change the "Line Bypass Capture ..." control names to "CD Playback ..." the control looks like the PCM one above.
Seems "Line Bypass Capture" is something alsamixer can't handle. Is there a better control name for such a feature? I can route "Line In" through a amplifier to "Line Out".
