Once you've run some more tests we can easily raise this limit. I just want to make sure we have something safe in place ASAP now that people will soon be able to change the hardware volume control more easily (i.e. with the fixed UCM files). > > */ > > snd_soc_limit_volume(card, "WSA_RX0 Digital Volume", 84); > > snd_soc_limit_volume(card, "WSA_RX1 Digital Volume", 84); > > + snd_soc_limit_volume(card, "SpkrLeft PA Volume", 1); > > + snd_soc_limit_volume(card, "SpkrRight PA Volume", 1) > > It would be nice to consider using component->name_prefix here. That can possibly be done later. Johan
