Thanks Alex. Those were the tips I was looking for. I believe I'd seen the
CONTROL_ALL_AUDIO setting before but had not changed it yet. In case you were
wondering, the "IGAIN" mixer pot adjusted the following setting according to alsactl:
control.29 {
comment.access 'read write'
comment.type BOOLEAN
iface MIXER
name 'Capture Switch'
- value true
+ value false
}
control.30 {
comment.access 'read write'
comment.type INTEGER
comment.range '0 - 15'
iface MIXER
name 'Capture Volume'
- value.0 2
- value.1 2
+ value.0 0
+ value.1 0
}
Not sure if that will help the developers to deal with this sucker in the future, but
hopefully it will :)
Thanks again to each of you, expecially Erwan Velu for the scripts and example config!
You are doing far more with Freevo than I am but I hope to change that soon :)
Thanks,
Matt
