Hi,
I am trying to do gain control while RECORDING for my Audio Mic device.
My application opens /dev/mixer device and calls ioctl(fdmixer, MIXER_WRITE(SOUND_MIXER_MIC), ...)
But, the call fails. It traces to sound/core/oss/mixer_oss.c file and snd_mixer_oss_put_volume1() function. It never falls in "if (slot->present & SNDRV_MIXER_OSS_PRESENT_CVOLUME)" as condition "if (slot->present & SNDRV_MIXER_OSS_PRESENT_PVOLUME) " comes as false.
I think there is a bug in kernel and I think it should be like as below,

Your mailer mangled the patch; see linux/Documentation/email-clients.txt.
Also, the current code behaves intentionally so (as it's designed for mic-loopback volume).
A more feasible fix would be to add another if check for *_CVOLUME instead of moving it.
Oh okie. It makes sense. I just sent out a patch on LAD. Should I resubmit with what you proposed ?
LAD is no good place for sending a patch of sound driver. Please post to alsa-devel ML (and add Cc to me).
thanks,
Takashi
