Hi,

We have some problems with amixer always returning 0 when called from 
stdin (exec_stdin). The global variable ignore_error is always set to 1 
in function exec_stdin which leads to sset and cset always returning 0 
even if an error occured.

Are there any specific reasons for suppressing error messages and error 
return values like this?

Henrik
