Hi Takashi,

Well, it's no bug in softvol, at least. The softvol doesn't do any format or layout conversions. The layout conversion is done via plug plugin applied onto the softvol.
OK (not that I fully understand what you have said) but where does that leave me? Is there something that I should try? Some ALSA or kernel configuration option that might be in error?
Takashi, as Kevin wrote originally, the problem is not that softvol doesn't do any format/layout conversions, but that it claims it does. PA asks softvol for INTERLEAVED samples, softvol agrees to that -- and actually hands us only NONINTERLEAVED samples because it doesn't reformat the from the underlying layer.
So, it *is* a bug in softvol. However, you are right that it doesn't do any conversions.
