Hi to all, I got a problem with alsa equalizer (media-plugins/alsaequal) setup. The error that I get is:
% LANG=en alsamixer -D equal ALSA lib ctl_equal.c:268:(_snd_ctl_equal_open) Problem with control file .alsaequal.bin, 3. cannot open mixer: Operation not permitted And when I login as root I get the same error. Meantime, the sound is working and I hear the noise when doing: % speaker-test -D plug:plugequal -c 2 The only alsa configuration file present is ~/.asoundrc (no /etc/asound.conf). So it doesn't look like misconfiguration to me. I use the stable branch of Gentoo on Thinkpad X201 laptop. In Debian [that I have been migrating from] it was "just working". Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.
