The .asoundrc file which i cut & paste below this comment seems to do the trick for me. I can't confirm wether or not Master now also controls the cd and line-in volume, but at least it controls the PCM.
Its from: http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=cmipci I've changed control { name "SoftMaster" to "Master" } from what they specify. It's a big hack and I have little to no clue why it works or what it doet, but it does the trick :-) Yeah! One note: muting the master volume control does not mute the pcm unfortunately. So if anyone understands what this .asoundrc file format is about and knows how to tweak this, i would like to hear it! ==================== pcm.softvol { type softvol slave { pcm "hw:0,1" } control { name "Master" } } pcm.dsp0 { type plug slave.pcm "softvol" slave.channels 6 route_policy duplicate } pcm.!default { type plug slave.pcm "softvol" slave.channels 6 route_policy duplicate } -- 'Master' needs to be exchanged with 'PCM' in order for volume hotkeys to work https://launchpad.net/bugs/35717 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
