Additional info:
This bug was created as a reply to the mail sent by Adam Williamson. I am more than happy to use kmix, it perfectly fits my needs.


The motherboard is MSI MS-7252. I have a pair of Sony MDR-XD200 headphones connected to the JAUD1 analogue connector of the mobo.

Probably a good candidate for inclusion in the alsa db. Reassigning.

Jaroslav, was this one done in 1.0.20?

Comment 5 Jaroslav Kysela 2009-05-21 09:13:49 UTC
The alsa-utils-1.0.20-3 package should fix this issue. Reopen this bug if the problem persist.
