Hello, I have problems with snd_mixer_selem_get_capture_switch(elem,pos,&value) in my KMix mixer application. The "value" returned does *not* reflect the actual state in all cases. Probably I am doing something wrong, if somebody could throw me a hint I would be more than happy. I have investigated for days and feel completely lost.
It is a bit complicated, so I'll do a step-by-step walkthrough of an example: 1) Initially switch "1" is ON and switch "2" is OFF 2) I enable switch "2". 3) The ALSA driver detects that switches "1" and "2" cannot be ON at the same time. So the ALSA driver disables "1". 4a) KMix now shows switches "1" and "2" both as ON, because snd_mixer_selem_get_capture_switch() reports them as ON. 4b) alsamixer shows switch "1" is OFF and switch "2" is ON. So I wonder why snd_mixer_selem_get_capture_switch() works in alsamixer and not in KMix. The only differenece I see is that alsamixer has these poll-descriptor stuff in it. Do I possibly need to implement it (I don't understand what I would have to do there - it looks complicated)? Or is there some other means to "update" the state of the mixer elements? Hint: I also have the problem that I don't see volume changes done with other applications like xmms. So I am pretty sure I have an "update" problem, I just don't know how to solve it. Any help is greatly appreciated, Chris PS: I already looked at other mixer applications like gamix, but that did not help me: For example the latter one seems to be using alsa kernel interface instead of alsa-lib. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
