[Bug 1513169] [NEW] [USB-Audio - MDR-1ADAC, playback] volume muting problem.
Public bug reported:
My device is getting muted every time I plug it in. It's muted in ALSA - the ALSA mixer is the only place I can unmute it.
In alsamixer Card: MDR-1ADAC, Chip: USB Mixer, there I see 2 items - iAP interface and iAP interface 1. I need to unmute both, to be able to hear the audio.
This is real inconvenience now, however it was a big problem until I discovered that the device is just muted, and still working.
This behaviour is sins my last update on 2015-11-2 before that the device was working properly every time, no unmuting was ever required.
Here is what I found about that:
In /var/lib/alsa/asound.state I have this about the device
state.MDR1ADAC {
control.1 {
iface PCM
name 'Playback Channel Map'
value.0 0
value.1 0
comment {
access read
type INTEGER
count 2
range '0 - 36'
}
}
control.2 {
iface MIXER
name 'iAP Interface Playback Switch'
value.0 false
value.1 false
comment {
access 'read write'
type BOOLEAN
count 2
}
}
control.3 {
iface MIXER
name 'iAP Interface Playback Switch'
index 1
value false
comment {
access 'read write'
type BOOLEAN
count 1
}
}
control.4 {
iface MIXER
name 'iAP Interface Playback Volume'
value.0 127
value.1 127
comment {
access 'read write'
type INTEGER
count 2
range '0 - 127'
dbmin -12700
dbmax 0
dbvalue.0 0
dbvalue.1 0
}
}
control.5 {
iface MIXER
name 'iAP Interface Playback Volume'
index 1
value 127
comment {
access 'read write'
type INTEGER
count 1
range '0 - 127'
dbmin -12700
dbmax 0
dbvalue.0 0
}
}
}
for control.2 I change the values to true
value.0 true
value.1 true
and then for control.3 I change the value to true.
After this changes the USB device is no longer muted when I pluged it
in. And this solves my issue for now.
