TLVs always are unsigned. But they can contain bit patterns that are to be interpreted as signed. > - unsigned int tlv[4]; > + int tlv[4]; > tlv[0] = SND_CTL_TLVT_DB_SCALE; > tlv[1] = 2 * sizeof(int); > tlv[2] = svol->min_dB * 100; The problem is that conversion of a negative floating-point number into an unsigned integer results in undefined behaviour, and on your architecture (whatever it is), this results in zero. The correct way to handle this would be something like this: tlv[i] = (int)(...); Regards, Clemens _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
