If I understand correctly, you have three DACs, one internal speaker, one headphone jack, and three jacks that are both used for 5.1 surround and line out/mic/line in. Is this correct?
This is correct. In addition I have a front mic jack.
Could you upload/pastebin your alsa-info somewhere? Then we could run it through the emulator and reproduce the problem.
How do the DACs get assigned in this case? One would assume that you'd get 02 -> Front LO, HP, Speaker, 03 -> Rear LO, 04 -> CLFE LO.
With my private patch to enforce multi-io I seem to lose the internal speaker which isn't bad because it isn't connected (and probably never won't be).
Since you're using private patches you're somewhat out on "unsupported" ground, but anyhow...
You are right concerning the remaining assignments:
multi_outs = 14/0/0/0 : 2/3/4/0 (type LO) out path: depth=3 '02:0c:14' multi_ios(2) = 1a/18 : 3/4 mio path: depth=3 '03:0d:1a' mio path: depth=3 '04:0e:18' hp_outs = 1b/0/0/0 : 2/0/0/0 hp path: depth=3 '02:0c:1b' spk_outs = 15/0/0/0 : 0/0/0/0
And then the volume/mute control for DAC node 02 would be called "PCM" (since both hp_lo_shared and spk_lo_shared are true), but in fact it would be more appropriate to call it "Front".
I've got a Master that would only affect the Front (PCM) and a PCM that affected Surround/CLFE which was very unpleasant.
With the patch I'm getting a real Master (for all Front/Surround/CLFE) and a separate Front Volume Control in addition to Surround, Center and LFE which is exactly how it should be.
Hmm. What do you think of the attached patch - would it work as well? It removes the part that returns early for all three, letting it fall through to the part that returns "Front" etc.
