Description of problem: By default my system has a number of mixers that show under File/Change Device in volume control: Intel ICH5 (ALSA mixer) Intel ICH5 modem (ALSA mixer Realtek ALC650F (OSS mixer) The OSS mixer correctly divides the audio devices under playback and recording, but with the ALSA mixer, they all appear under Playback, even the Microphone, CD, Line-In etc. I would expect that the ALSA mixer would like the OSS mixer correctly put the audio devices under their correct categories. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-media-2.18.0-3.fc7 How reproducible: Always
Please attach the output of "amixer -c X" where X is the card number for this device.

Could you select the Intel ICH5 ALSA device, exit gnome-volume-control, and restart it with: GST_DEBUG=*:5 gnome-volume-control 2> log Then Ctrl+C to kill it And attach the "log" output file? gnome-volume-control is supposed to show the tracks under input if they have an input volume, but this doesn't seem to be working correctly. The log file will tell me how GStreamer detects the tracks. Could you also tell me which version of gstreamer-plugins-base you're using? 0.10.13 is the latest version for Fedora 7, make sure it's updated.

If you're using rawhide, or can test a rawhide, please test with the new gstreamer-plugins-base: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=46563
This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Created attachment 326219 [details] image of volume control in F10 In F10, I still see these under the volume control Playback tab: Master, PCM, Line-In, CD, Microphone, PC Speaker I would have thought that the inputs Line-In, CD, Microphone would be in a separate tab! I attach an F10 volume control screenshot.
This bug should be fixed with the new gnome-volume-control and gnome-volume-control-applet in rawhide, available in the gnome-media package. Please reopen if the problem persists with those versions.
