Hi Colin, thanks for your answer. In general the pulse plugin does more or less what I want - present controls in userspace, right. But the PulsePlugin actually consists of two plugins, a PCM plugin (pcm_pulse.c) and control plugin (ctl_pulse.c). As far as I understand, the control events/messages from the user space sliders are directed to the pulse audio server via the ctl_plugin. My question is actually, how to make use of them directly in the pcm plugin? As I told, a similiar request was done three years ago: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.alsa.devel/50181 That´s where I got the idea of creating the user-space control elements directly inside of the PCM plugin, or did I get it wrong?
