No effect for the default volume levels setting, the same behavior continues (tested repeatedly). No idea how to test the other thing you mention, since there's no mention of PCM Capture anywhere in those pulseaudio files.

[Bug 1133065] Re: Default mixer settings for EMU20K2 enable PCM Input on boot while showing it as disabled
The simplest definition of the bug is that after bootup, the actual state of the emu20k2 hardware is not accurately reflected in the software (alsamixer, alsactl store). The easiest observable effect (in my case) is the PCM Capture switch - it shows off even though it's functioning as if it were on. Other differences between hardware and software may be exist, but I've not detected them (nor have I searched). Toggling the switch on, then off, fixes the issue and syncs between hardware and software. However, using alsactl restore has no effect even if the configuration being restored contains the instructions to set the switch to off, and even if the force parameter is used (which is the default anyway). I wonder if alsactl compares the hardware state to the new state intended and avoids setting the switch value as an optimization... I'm testing your latest now, will report its effects. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1133065 Title: Default mixer settings for EMU20K2 enable PCM Input on boot while showing it as disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1133065/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You lost me - what's the o'clock capture switch? How do I set it? What are the permissible values? It's not documented in the alsactl man page either.

[Bug 1133065] Re: Default mixer settings for EMU20K2 enable PCM Input on boot while showing it as disabled
There would be a simple workaround if any of the command-line utilities for alsa would allow me to change specific mixer settings. A script could easily be devised to simply turn PCM Input on, then off, and that would be that. Sadly, to my knowledge no such utility exists. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1133065 Title: Default mixer settings for EMU20K2 enable PCM Input on boot while showing it as disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/1133065/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1133065] Re: Default mixer settings for EMU20K2 enable PCM Input on boot while showing it as disabled
Yes, precisely. Take this sequence: Start up the machine Boot to Ubuntu Log in Open sound input settings (gnome-control-center sound, input tab) Play some music The input indicator moves with the music clearly denoting that the PCM capture is enabled. However, alsactl store produces an asound.state file in which the PCM switch is turned off. Opening up alsamixer also shows the item as off. Same with amixer cget. Using alsactl to restore a correct asound.state does NOT fix the problem, but if I turn the switch on, then off again (via alsamixer, or amixer, regardless), correct functioning is restored - PCM capture is disabled. However, if I reboot, the problem shows up again. I haven't tested logout-login after fixing the problem (i.e. if it causes the issue or not), but I don't think it does (will test that shortly). The workaround is now to have a script that runs at login, turning the switch on, then off, using amixer (new discovery on my part). However this is only applicable to my case in which I want PCM input to be turned off at the beginning. Other users might want it turned on and/or other input means (microphone, line-in) turned off instead. The issue here is that state isn't being properly restored to where it should - either something is altering the card's state post-alsa initialization and state restore, without alsa's knowledge, or alsa isn't restoring the state properly. Hope this info helps. I'll run the logout-login test shortly and relay the results. Cheers!

[Bug 1133065] Re: Default mixer settings for EMU20K2 enable PCM Input on boot while showing it as disabled
As expected, login-logout had no effect. Therefore, it's safe to assume the bug only manifests on a fresh boot. This reinforces the idea that it's either something changing the card's state behind ALSA'S back, or ALSA not properly restoring state to the card. The fact that alsactl restore fails to fix the problem but amixer cset works, seems to suggest that alsactl restore may be where the problem lies.
