Oh, that's AKM, which does make the chips on his ADC/DAC2000,
as I just read on the product page.
Anyway I'm thinking more now that he is missing some ALSA controls.
His converters are external. Does ALSA know how to work with
such converters? I'll read a bit more tomorrow. I bet some better answers
will appear here though...

Yeah weird. I was thinking that since it works with my card as well and
there's been no real complaints so far, that it would have worked
hopefully with some ADC/DACs other than the usual company
(I can't remember - the delta1010 ones). Tim,
First thanks for the reply - I would love the be a test case.
I checked out the latest trunk version (14), compiled it with default
options and gave it a try. Still no Analog tab. :( The about tab
shows
Envy Control 1.1.0.14. Both the Monitor Inputs and Monitor PCMs tabs
show
the text "(off)" under all the meters. Is this expected? Any other
thoughts?
Yes, it is expected. The off means no signal has made a peak high enough
to read. Once a signal is there it will read in -xx.x up to 0db as the
peak signal since last reset. I find it odd that the Analog Volume is not
there.
If it doesn't turn out to be lack of ALSA controls in his case, my guess
off the top of my head would be control naming issues -
textual ALSA changes in nature ... ?
It does sound like you can get audio out though.
Do you have the
Patchbay/Router tab? Does it show 10 outputs? (my d66 shows outputs 1-4
and 9-10) but I found I got no output till I raised the analog controls
either.
Another program to try for trouble shooting is qasHctl which gives a list
of everything ALSA found for your card in a tree like structure. On the
right side select hw:Card and 0: or whatever card number you are using. On
the left side under mixer see what is listed there. Anything with "multi
Capture" or "multi Playback" in it is the monitor mixer. Look for other
sets of 10.
Yes thanks, try to post some kind of list of the available ALSA controls.
What's that standard one that lists them all - is it amixer or alsactl or
...?
Hopefully will reveal something.
I wonder if 1.1.* has fixed the profile saving...
How so?
I fixed one problem dealing with the wrong 'alsactl' (I think it's called)
program location in Envy24 - saving should work universally now, I hope.
Thanks.
Tim.
