Re: Re: Sound on a VIA8235

Hi all

I have a KV7MM+ board with via8235

I also had the same problem and this does indeed fix it. I changed the
volume in asound.state and did alsactl restore 0

is there anyway to get it so that it is the master volume as aumix and other
applications cannot change the volume now.

any mapping file I can change so that Headphone becomes master.

Thanks for the info so far I was scratching my head on this for while.

Cheers

Nick
