Subject: [PATCH] ucm: Document PlaybackPCMIsDummy and CapturePCMIsDummy values
Date: Thu, 26 Jun 2014 13:30:25 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1403778625-4608-1-git-send-email-tanu.kaskinen@linux.intel.com> (raw)

At least PulseAudio needs special handling for dummy devices. To allow
that to happen automatically, the UCM configuration should contain the
information about which PCMs are dummy.
