It's attached. Note that this is the output from stock installation
of Fedora Core 3 (more or less...), and that only qamix failed to
show more than one slider. alsamixer still showed all controls I
was expecting. On the DeMuDi side, alsamixer and kamix seem to work
equally well.

I'm still not getting any input from my microphone, though. Since
I figured that the device may be defective, I took it back to the
store and asked them to plug it into a Windows machine. We tried
all sorts of mixer settings and couldn't get any input from the
microphone. (My microphone works just fine when plugged into the
built-in soundcard.)

So, we took a new device out of its box and tried that one, and
we still couldn't get any input from the mic. Did anyone ever
manage to record from the mic, using the TerraTec Aureon 5.1 USB?
Best,
    Peter
