I believe this is the right place to report this problem, but if it
isn't please point me in the right direction.
I have noticed that after the update from kernel 4.14.5 to 4.14.6
alsamixer does not show the usual volume controls for my usb soundcard.
Reverting 3884d12e17ab770aa0f5d4bc65bfbfd006f417fa ALSA: usb-audio: Add
check return value for usb_string() (from linux-stable) makes the
controls come back again with kernel 4.14.6.
Amixer shows a difference between the good and bad case.
Good amixer output (4.14.5):
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined
Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: Playback 0 - 110
Mono:
Front Left: Playback 0 [0%] [-55.00dB] [on]
Front Right: Playback 0 [0%] [-55.00dB] [on]
Simple mixer control 'PCM Capture Source',0
Capabilities: enum
Items: 'Line' 'IEC958 In'
Item0: 'Line'
Simple mixer control 'Line',0
Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: Capture 0 - 104
Front Left: Capture 20 [19%] [-30.00dB] [off]
Front Right: Capture 20 [19%] [-30.00dB] [off]
Bad amixer output (4.14.6):
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined enum
Items: 'Line' 'IEC958 In'
Item0: 'Line'
Item1: 'Line'
Simple mixer control 'Line',0
Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right
Limits: Capture 0 - 104
Front Left: Capture 20 [19%] [-30.00dB] [off]
Front Right: Capture 20 [19%] [-30.00dB] [off]
The output of lsusb -v for the affected sound card is attached.
