As I figured out that line-out volume was controled with DAC and DAC1 (how intuitive), I noticed that while sliding the controls up and down increased and decreased the volume as expected, modifying the master volume control afterwards made the volume jump to a much lower level than expected: increasing or decreasing the master volume even just a little bit makes the overall volume drop, even though it is not mirrored by the controls. Thus, setting DAC and DAC1 to 100% while Master was set to 82% resulted in a quite high volume, but modifying the master volume to 84% or 80% resulted in the drop. Setting master volume to 60% made the sound very low, and setting it to 40% made it almost inaudible, until I changed DAC and DAC1 by 2%. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- skamp - 08-17-2004 04:33 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Fixed with alsa-* 1.0.6, although the Master control is weird: you only get full sound when you set Master to 0. Increasing Master decreases overall volume very fast. This control is basically unusable. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tiwai - 08-18-2004 13:47 CEST ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Could you try the attached patch?
