Your problem description seems very suprising, you're saying that the control just doesn't appear to userspace at all. > - microphone volume was shown twice in "All" tab of Alsamixer, but > running synchroniously, if you change one, the other will follow with > the same value - fixed by this Again, what is actually going on here? You've renamed controls rather than removing any of them so this feels like randomly changing things to work around some other problem elsewhere in the system. > - if microphone voulme was changed in capture tab, the volume also > changed in playback tab - fixed by this What is the actual problem? Are these different controls that are being updated in tandem or is the control being displayed multiple times? > - microphone was never shown as active capture source, even if it was > selected correctly, neither in capture tab nor in all-tab - fixed by > this With these you've again not provided any analysis of the actual failure mechanism or how your change helps so it's a bit hard to follow what you believe your patch fixes. > - phone was shown as selected capture source in capture tab, but > actually it was not selected, instead it was muted/unmuted everytime one > tries to select it as capture source - fixed by this I'm having a hard time parsing this but I think you're saying that the phone input was shown as a capture source rather than a playback source? _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
