Eh? One is a Volume, the other is a Switch. Note that alsamixer does render the two stacked on top of each other in the UI.
Yes, I guessed that earlier. Anyways I generally don't rely on alsamixer and use amixer whereever possible. In amixer also, it shows only one control, the one that I add first. If I change "Mic" to some thing else like "MicM" or "Mic Mute", then it shows both controls.
Check again, amixer also merges controls.
Yes, you are right.
BTW does amixer version have any significance here? I know my alsa-utils are quite old (1.0.14)
That's spectacularly old, I guess it's possible it's buggy.
I see, thanks. I will update it to my earliest convenience. As of now, I will go forward in submitting the patches.
