Hello list,
I have recently switched to a 5.1 Dolby Digital system and was surprised
how nicely everything worked with ALSA. There is however one problem
which I have - read through a lot of forums, but did not find a
satisfying answer.
I'm using my soundcards (Terratec Aureon 5.1 = C-Media
So my question is: does ALSA support software volume control? The loss
of quality (dynamics) is not so important to me in this case, I'd have
it almost always on 100% - but would sometimes like to quickly reduce
the volume. If it is supported, does it also work when playing back
direct AC3
