Hi Takashi,
In the sound-5.14-rc1 merge commit log the highlights included: "Scarlett2 mixer code fixes and enhancements". I think that the new support for Gen 3 devices is significant enough to be worth mentioning.
Can you add to the next update a note along the lines of "Support for Focusrite Scarlett Solo/2i2/4i4/8i6/18i8/18i20 Gen 3 audio interface proprietary mixer controls"?
This set of patches is relative to v5.14-rc2 and fixes four issues:
1. The Mute/Dim/MSD Mode controls are missing the direction/function parts of the syntax of standard control names as per Documentation/sound/designs/control-names.rst
- This could be considered a breaking-stable change if someone is relying on the Mute/Dim control names not changing. I think it's unlikely to be a problem as this driver is still considered experimental and not enabled by default, but if never changing control names is important, then you can drop this patch.
2. The Direct Monitor control on the 2i2 interface is an Enum, not a Switch.
- This changes a control name, but that control was only introduced in v5.14-rc1, so not a problem to change it now.
3. Fixes the mute status not being correctly read when the mute button is pressed.
- Not applicable for stable; those controls were introduced in v5.14-rc1.
4. Sends the correct notification on line out and speaker switching changes.
- Partly applicable to stable, but will need a separate patch.
Thanks, Geoffrey.
