OK I just confirmed that this is desired behavior is pulseaudio, and that this is probably a bug in your driver. Pulseaudio by default "merges" the mic and mic boost controls into a single volume control. What is happening to you is that the boost control seems to be broken. Please try upgrading your kernel (your kernel was a few versions behind when you reported the bug). If that doesn't work out, we should reassign this bug to the kernel. As a workaround, you can try editing /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-input-mic.conf and inside the element [Element Front Mic Boost], set "volume = zero". That should disable merging of the two controls. -- Saludos, Felipe Sateler _______________________________________________ pkg-pulseaudio-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-pulseaudio-devel
