I'm beginning to think that upgrading the music and bells Pis to bullseye
might have been a bit premature. I cannot get amixer to work properly. The
sound card is an Adafruit Speaker Bonnet. The code shown below worked under
buster.
Here is the configuration:
pi@minster-bells:~ $ amixer
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
Capabilities: volume
Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: 0 - 255
Front Left: 255 [100%]
Front Right: 255 [100%]
I need the volume to be controllable from my Python program, so I set it once
at the beginning when the program is launched, eg:
amixer -c 0 set PCM 100
(where the value is a variable in reality, but this doesn't work either.)
I get:
amixer: Invalid command!
Any thoughts on what could be wrong? speaker-test and playing an mp3 file works
fine using mpg123. I just can't set the volume.
