I know that. BTW one of the actions I tried last weekend was recording something from the microphone. And it failed too. selecting one (don't remember which, though) of the capture channels for capture resulted in continuous noise being recorded, and selecting the other one resulted in silence. Also, selecting both resulted in sum of these, hence, noise again... Also, not sure if it's alsamixer's or driver's fault, alsamixer always says "Input Source 1" is "1", even though it selects the required source. Paulo, would you please confirm this too? Jonathan, I think that maybe the "test" model should have even more controls to play with, even those that may seem like should never be used? For example, there seem to be no checkboxes or something similar to control S/PDIF NIDs, or jack (pin) widgets and so on. Such controls might be useful for testing, when nothing else seems to work out, like the Acer case at the moment. In order not to clutter the default tester's mixer interface, maybe this (at least partially) should go to some kind of an "extended test" model, i don't know. BTW, if I haven't misunderstood the datasheet, I think it says that S/PDIF NIDs (0x03 and 0x06, if I remember correctly) can be told to output Analog audio, along with the other channels. Could this possibly be Acer's case? I'm asking this because these were probably the only NIDs that I didn't even try to play with...
