Howdy,
thanks for the suggestion. I installed it, but still get the same error and the 
volume controls still do not work.
Thanks
Storm

Howdy,
I have installed extra/moc 1:2.5.0-3. Reading through the docs, and things on 
the net, I found a way to set up a softvol control for it in alsa, so when I 
adjust its volume, it only changes the volume for moc. Everything went well, 
except, I can't adjust the volume from within the moc app, which should be 
possible because you can set the alsa device and mixer in the ~/.moc/config 
file.
It is using the right device, and amixer sset Mocmaster 50% sets the volume. 
It's just the in program controls that fail. When moc starts, it gives this 
error:
ALSA lib dlmisc.c:254:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library 
/usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_ctl_softvol.so
This makes me think that either a plugin is missing from alsa-plugins, or maybe 
moc is using an outdated way to change its volume. However, if the alsa 
controls are set to their defaults, the volume works fine, but it lowers the 
volume on the whole system.
I did a pacman search for alsa softvol but it didn't return anything. Is there 
anything I can install to fix this?
Thanks for any help
Storm


my only guess would be to install this:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/asoundpp-git/

as i see moc uses speex. just a guess though.
