SB Live! Platinum CT4760P is just a 4 channels sound card with STAC9721

Philips UDA1334 DAC
Is it feasible to remove "Center" , "LFE", "Wave Cetner" and "Wave LFE" Playback Volume control ?
or add a bitmap to disable the creation of those controls
Anyone know whether this patch has any side effect for the user with
Live
Drive
The side-effect is that opening surround51 would spew annoying error messages as you've seen. It should return an error without much complaint.
I'm not sure what is the best way to solve it. Defining another conf such as EMU10K1-4ch.conf would be an option, but it's not elegant...
The side effect is not related to my patch but exout
#define EXTOUT_HEADPHONE_L 0x06 /* LiveDrive - Headphone - left */ #define EXTOUT_HEADPHONE_R 0x07 /* LiveDrive - Headphone - right */
I just follow Documentation/ALSA-Configuration.txt to set extout to 0x1f03 for my SB Live! Platinum without Live! Drive

As Philips UDA1334 has no hardware volume control
The problem is pulseaudio expect the Front Channel and Rear Channels volume controls have same dB range
