Well, normally you'd only really vary one or possibly two gains in the path at runtime - everything else would be fixed by the scenario - so it's not so urgent to enforce anything over the full path, you can just deal with the controls that actually get updated dynamically. One of the bigger use cases here is to prevent physical damage if you've got a speaker driver that can produce more power than the speaker attached to it is rated for. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
