The n450 seems to use amixer and not alsactl. That's the intent. The beagleboard-audio recipe in meta-yocto also uses amixer not alsactl but alsactl and the alsa-state recipe offers more functionality IMHO (and fewer dependencies iirc). > > And if so, can you provide a patch for meta-intel? Can do, I've already got one for meta-yocto prepared but was waiting for some C's before submitting. Joshua -- Joshua Lock Yocto Project "Johannes factotum" Intel Open Source Technology Centre
