Hi Strebor When you enable equal, you overwrite asound.conf. You need to edit that manually - it's in /etc. Don't forgot to do a backup on the main page once you've changed it. You need to change pcm.equal section to pcm.equal { type plug; slave.pcm plugequal; ttable { 0.0 0.5

Thank you mrw. I'm not quite clear on what happens in every case, but I believe that the requirement is often dynamic (i.e. the plugins expect to be able to alter the advertisement on the fly, depending on what squeezeboxes are available), so we can't just set up a static advertisement on the hos
