Re: [Bug 899638] Re: Sound settings missing many many options.

 

I didn't focus on one option because it seems that there is a generic
way that alsa drivers offer options to mixer control software.
Alsamixer seems to have support for generic toggle and slider
controls. None of those options are available in gnome, and they all
should be really since you can't predict what new features sound card
drivers will offer.

Title:
  Sound settings missing many many options.

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I did a clean install of Ubuntu 11.10. I have onboard sound (some kind
  of intel one). Anyway, in the sound settings, it is missing an
  absolute ton of options that are available via alsamixer. For example,
  in alsamixer I can disabled "auto-mute" (mutes the rear output when
  you plug headphones into the front panel), but in the sound settings
  GUI there is no such option.

  Such a shame that we are still forced to do simple things like
  changing the sound settings on the command line in 2011.
