does it respond to devices gain -- changed with simultaneously pressed volume buttons?It's odd, alsa seems to treat the card as if it has two volume controls. If I set the volume type to "Hardware" or "Null" then I get no sound at all. On these settings the output of amixer -c2 contents is
I.e. the first mixer is set to 0 and there's no sound.Code:numid=3,iface=MIXER,name='PCM Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=2,min=0,max=127,step=0 : values=0,0 | dBminmax-min=-63.50dB,max=0.00dB numid=4,iface=MIXER,name='PCM Playback Volume',index=1 ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=127,step=0 : values=127 | dBminmax-min=-63.50dB,max=0.00dB
Given that @Jimbob54 is finding a similar result on Android, it seems that this unit is reporting its volume control in a way that's slightly confusing to linux-based systems. Luckily it's easy to fix as long as you have an interface that lets you dig a bit deeper.
