The reason is probably that the mixer element "numid=5" is a complex mixer with three arguments, where the first two define the address of the mixer element in the hardware mixer, and the third one its value. Thus, all hardware mixer elements are accessed through a single ALSA mixer element (the hdsp cards have up to 2*26^2=1352 mixer elements). The read command of numid=5 always returns the triplet 0,0,0. -- Giso _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
