Description Jean-Jacques Sarton 2011-03-18 10:09:36 UTC
Description of problem:
Pulseaudio don't work well with the STAC9xx. The pulseaudio default ist to merge the Master, PCM and LFE volume controls. This is wrong. The Master and LFE controls shall be joined (same setting for both) and the PCM control shall be ignored. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
all

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:
Working pulseaudio and support for people which have such problems

Additional info:
The problem may be solved by adding at the end of the file /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-output.conf.common:
[Element Master]
[Element LFE]
volume = ignore
[Element PCM]
volume = ignore

and installing the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package which provide a new device with 2 controls.
With this all work as expected. All controls can be presetted via alsamixer or gmixer and the volume will be controlled only by the control provided by the plugin.

The modified configuration ([Element Master]...) shall not be within the default file but within ~/.pulse or be set automaticaly

Comment 1 Peter Robinson 2011-09-12 10:18:09 UTC
I suggest you upgrade to Fedora 15. ekiga 3.3.x has support for native PulseAudio. This won't be fixed in F-14
