Description Christian Haertwig 2005-10-18 15:17:03 UTC

I have the problem, that the Master slider in the alsamixer (and every other    
mixer i tried) only changes the volume of the two front speakers, but not the    
rear/center/lfe. Neither the pcm slider does. I have had a look into the alsa    
Wiki where exactly this problem was mentioned. But the solution there was to    
upgrade to at least alsa-1.0.0, but i'm currently using alsa-1.0.9 and have    
had exactly this problem with many other alsa versions/linux-2.6 kernels    
before. Mentioning that problem in the alsa-user mailing list gave me these   
replies: http://phpfi.com/82837 (excerpt)

Thanks in advance

PS: i have already upgraded to SuSE Linux 10.0 but that didnt solve this 
problem.

The change was only for Audigy, not for SB live.  So, it's still a "feature".

Hopefully it'll be fixed in the future version...
