an RME Multiface here) in some manner?
As far as I can see, this driver does not give you access to the
channel status bits of the capture stream. (And even C-Media cards
give you only the first 32 bits.)
Huh. Is that an ALSA shortcoming?
No, of the hardware.
Not always. When I wrote the RME driver for the
digiface/multiface/digi9652 etc, I knew that status bits were available,
but I don't recall exporting them to user space. At this point in time, I
don't even remember what the ALSA abstraction for that would be. The
"control" device? The mixer?
