The error messages are a bit cryptic, and probably not a good idea that you have to look in syslog. With this conf: [General] auto-profiles = yes [Mapping All] channel-map = left,right,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7,aux8,aux9,aux10,aux11 device-strings = hw:%f direction = input priority = 1 [Mapping Headphone] channel-map = aux0,aux1,left,right,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7,aux8,aux9,aux10,aux11 device-strings = hw:%f direction = output priority = 2 [Mapping Speaker] channel-map = left,right,aux2,aux3,aux4,aux5,aux6,aux7,aux8,aux9,aux10,aux11 device-strings = hw:%f direction = output priority = 1 The resulting Headphone profile now works as expected with output only being sent to the headphone output. With the Speaker profile, however, I get output both on my speakers and headphone. Anything in my conf that explains that or is that hardware (monitoring)? /Allan -- Allan Wind Yaxto - Runs My Business <https://yaxto.com>
