Description of problem: I have a TV tuner with an audio in capability, but even though it does appear in hal-device-manager with both alsa and oss control devices, and does appear under sound preferences under Audio Conferencing - sound capture as "USB Audio" (which is a poor name in my view given that the device does have a name provided via usb), it does not appear under volume control in any mixers at all, and is not listed under File/Change Device. I would expect the input volume to be configurable via volume control. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-media-2.18.0-3.fc7 How reproducible: Always
> "USB Audio" (which is a poor name in my view given that the device does have a > name provided via usb) ALSA provides the device's name. Check the output of /proc/asound/cards to see what name is given. Could you please give the output of "amixer -c X" where X is the card number for the device?
I trust this is the info you need: [root@Vigor11 ~]# cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [ICH5 ]: ICH4 - Intel ICH5 Intel ICH5 with ALC650F at irq 17 1 [default ]: USB-Audio - TV USB2.0 AVerMedia TV USB2.0 at usb-0000:00:1d.7-5, high speed 2 [Modem ]: ICH-MODEM - Intel ICH5 Modem Intel ICH5 Modem at irq 17 [root@Vigor11 ~]# amixer -c 1 [root@Vigor11 ~]#
Your device doesn't have any ALSA controls.
Created attachment 219601 [details] screen shot of hal-device-manager showing alsa control device What do you make of the output of hal-device-manager then as I attach?

Looks like ALSA only handles one of the interfaces on the device (probably the Control Device), and not the Capture one. Looks like a driver bug.
